Surely a relevant item for a rumours and news thread? Probably quite significant and positive event for the industry in these times. Lets hope it remains sustainable.

Pretty pretentious crap comment MinesaGrolsch, the only thing I do agree with is your choice of beer.

Grolsch, beer?

Surely you meant Directors? (A fine British Ale to those unfortunate enough not to live near a British pub).

(And before anybody starts, yes this is tongue in cheek.)
