McGregor-Linked Forged Irish Stout Hit With Two High Court Actions, Including Winding-Up Petition

Supplier actions over unpaid bills raise the prospect of liquidation for the Dublin brewer.

Overview

  • Enterprise Tondelli filed a High Court petition on October 1 to wind up Forged Stout Production over an alleged debt of about €36,000 after a 21‑day demand went unpaid.
  • Minch Malt separately sued the company seeking judgment for more than €204,000 in unpaid invoices built up over years despite repeated demands.
  • Spectac International previously secured a judgment for nearly €10,000, adding to mounting creditor pressure on the stout producer.
  • The brewery was locked for months this year in a rent dispute with landlord Porterhouse Group before access was restored in late summer and brewing resumed.
  • Company filings cited by reporters show accumulated losses of €3 million and €6.7 million owed to creditors, with sales plunging after a 2024 civil verdict against Conor McGregor; McGregor is publicly associated with the brand but is not the owner, and directors include Alan Geraghty and Andrew Gelling.
