BrewDog’s CEO Has Left Following the Tilray Takeover. The Company Will Not Recruit a Replacement.

James Taylor has left his role as CEO of BrewDog following the completion of the company’s acquisition by Tilray Brands. A BrewDog spokesperson confirmed on 1 July 2026 that Taylor had “successfully led BrewDog through its ownership transition” and that the company would not be recruiting a direct replacement. BrewDog now sits within Tilray International, and within that structure a standalone CEO role is no longer required.
