I've added Ruddles which no longer exists. But in its time it was a significant and important brewery so ought to be on the list. I suggest that historically significant breweries be included with a note about their fate (and dates if known?). 80N 13:09, 8 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- I think all breweries should be included. And there's no reason why active breweries couldn't have their founding date as well. Cburnett 18:13, 8 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- I think Ruddles still exists. Or at least, you can still buy Ruddles beers. Awiseman 20:03, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
Write an article if you think it should exist. This list is so non-comprehensive that I am inclined to VfD it. Justinc 12:39, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- That's a bad reason to VFD. Cburnett 16:00, Apr 19, 2005 (UTC)
- ok. It could never be complete. It just encourages people to add things instead of contributing articles. Category:Brewers and breweries has far more in it. Justinc 16:09, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Yeah, I'm also wondering what the purpose of this page is, since the Category: ones have a lot more breweries. Awiseman 20:03, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

- To me, it's just a way to request articles for creation or a way to give yourself some objetive to fulfill. For example, I expanded the list of belgian breweries and then I began to create articles about them and I still have alot of work todo as you may see. But if you come to a website where you have a list of breweries with official names, it is interesting to fulfill the list so that you just have to click on the link in the list to begin the article.

- I fully agree with that. You could delete this list without loss of information only if all the already listed breweries had their own pages and were correctly categorized. You could of course create stubs for all of them, but is it cleaner? Hugus 15:04, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] window of oportunity
A beer book, that I am not bothering to site now, says that the Communist system preserved traditional brewing methods in eastern Europe. These beers can be prevented from being lost, now, if an international marked develops. (With limited petroleum to power ships, this may not be a long term solution, but it sure tastes good now.)
