Scottish and Newcastle bid

The big news today is Carlsberg and Heineken forming a consortium to buy Scottish and Newcastle . We were invited to join too, but we would rather concentrate our efforts on quality craft beers. That and I don't speak Danish or Dutchish.

Despite Scottish and Newcastle turning their back on 'real ale' (to focus on Foster's, Kronenbourg, Strongbow, etc) they have been champions of small brands in the past and it will be a pity to see the UK's biggest brewer thrown into foreign hands.
