In case people haven't seen, Gigayeast have ceased trading as of 16 July :
https://gigayeast.com/
I think BrewUK were the only UK retailers who ever stocked them, but aside from a good Conan when that was the big thing, they never really had a USP in the way that eg Omega managed by going hard on kveiks, or Yeast Bay with wild stuff, to justify retailers stocking them alongside the big guns. AIUI they were more focussed on commercial brewing than homebrew, but obviously it's not been a great time for draught beer in the last 16 months. Always sad to see a company disappear, less choice is seldom good.
