Parliamentʼs legislative committee cleared modifications to draft legislation related to next yearʼs budget on Thursday that would prohibit beverage makers from signing exclusive contracts with catering establishments and event organizers, according to a report by state news wire MTI.

The modifications, submitted by Lajos Kósa, an MP of governing Fidesz, would apply to beer, soft drinks - as defined in the law on the health product tax - and mineral water.

The changes would require catering establishments to offer guests beer, soft drinks, and mineral water from "at least two different producers". However, the provision would not apply to beer on tap.

The modified bill would allow exclusive contracts to be signed for beer on tap as long as beer from "at least one" legally defined "craft brewery" is offered to guests simultaneously and sales of that beer account for "at least 20%" of beer sales volume.

Kosa noted at the committee meeting that while the market share of small beverage makers reaches 15-20% in Germany, the Czech Republic, and Austria, their market share in Hungary is just 3.6%.

 

Good news for beer drinkers. Essentially no more single brewery establishments unless a small craft brewery is included on draught

I did as well. 

Issue is what to do with the empty cans.

Also ordered a couple of Erdinger glasses but worried I may have drunk them all before they arrive.

 

Gave my sister a few as she literally has a Klopp shrine, my dad got a couple and me and my lad the rest. Sell the empties mate haha.

Not big on lambic myself, especially the fruit stuff. Hope it's nice. 

 

I got the Gueuze, which I’ve had before, Rose de Gambrinus and then pulled a bar managers pants down and truly shafted him by paying £15 for an aged Saint Lamvinus because he was a dick who didn’t know what he was talking about. 
 

Genuinely told him ‘it’s been sat on the shelves for years and no fuckers bought it, it’s shit, I’ll give you fifteen quid?’

Jaxons? It used to be the Wizard's Den.  Its good mate.  They have 3 rotating taps and a good selection of bottles.  Dart board, if that's your thing as well.

I'll have to give it a whirl. How big is it? I've only looked when driving past, doesn't look like it could hold more the 20 people.

Let me know what it‘s like. They do kegs on perfect draft and I’ve been tempted.

 

I got 3 kegs the other day, Goose Island IPA, Tiny Rebel Cali Pale and Magic Rock Grapefruit IPA. 
 

Goose has gone, Cali on the way, the Magic Rock will be marmite for most. If you like Elvis Juice then I think you’ll enjoy it, strong Grapefruit taste.
