Ironically oil is the least of the worries for beer production. Between Brexit and Ukraine (being the breadbasket of Europe) grain is exceptionally expensive right now. The UK doesn't grow anywhere near enough to meet demand and between Brexit red-tape for imports and swathes of the Ukrainian market collapsing not to mention Russian importing coming off the table (the world wide leader in barley production) breweries are struggling right now and are closing down left right and centre. I reckon by 2025 we'll be looking at £10 pints unless something massive changes.
In total agreement with you. Not sure how that relates to thinking bigotry isn't cool. Seems to me anyone with even a vague understanding of beer production could work it out. |
