In a surprising turn of events, Logan Romero, the son of rock legend Robert Plant, has announced that he is stepping down from his role at Beavertown Brewery and transferring ownership to his mother, Maureen Wilson. The move marks a significant shift in the future direction of the brewery, a brand that has rapidly gained recognition for its innovative approach to brewing and its impact on the UK craft beer scene.
Beavertown Brewery, founded in 2011, quickly became one of the standout names in London’s craft beer revolution, with its signature beers like “Neon Raptor” and “Gamma Ray” becoming staples in pubs and bars across the country. The brewery’s success story had been closely associated with Romero, who took on a major leadership role within the company following its early growth stages. His decision to hand the reins over to his mother, Maureen Wilson, who has played a crucial role behind the scenes, was met with surprise but has been described as a thoughtful and strategic move.
In a statement released to the press, Logan Romero expressed his deep gratitude for the support Beavertown has received from loyal customers and the broader craft beer community over the years. He also emphasized the importance of family involvement in the business and how this change reflects his desire to let his mother take the brewery into the next phase of its journey.
“My decision to pass the torch to my mother is not one I take lightly, but it feels like the right moment for the next chapter,” Romero said. “Maureen has always been there, guiding and advising from the very beginning, and I know the brewery will continue to thrive under her leadership.”
Maureen Wilson, a seasoned businesswoman with extensive experience in the hospitality and brewing sectors, is excited about taking on this new responsibility. She has always been an integral part of Beavertown’s operations, but her more public-facing role was limited until now. Wilson plans to focus on expanding Beavertown’s international presence, enhancing its sustainability efforts, and maintaining the creative spirit that has made the brewery so beloved.
“I’ve always believed in the vision of Beavertown and its potential to reach new heights,” Wilson said. “Logan has done an incredible job of establishing the brewery, and I’m thrilled to take it forward with the same passion and energy that has defined this brand.”
Industry experts have speculated that this move signals a new era for the brewery, one where innovation and a sustainable approach to brewing will be at the forefront. While the brewery has enjoyed significant growth, some believe that Maureen Wilson’s leadership could allow Beavertown to tap into new markets and continue its mission to provide exceptional, high-quality beers.
As for Logan Romero, although stepping back from the brewery’s day-to-day operations, he is not completely disappearing from the scene. Sources close to the family confirm that he will remain involved in some capacity, possibly focusing on new ventures and collaborations that will complement Beavertown’s expansion.
Fans of Beavertown are eagerly awaiting the next moves under Maureen Wilson’s leadership, and all eyes are now on how the brewery will continue to evolve with its new matriarch at the helm.
