Was this the latest victim of escalating tensions between Russia and the West? Surely there would be no watering down of the legendary Emelisse XXV Imperial Russian Stout — with 25% ABV — or any other of the brawniest Russian beers? And if it was happening to the beer, what about the vodka? WHAT ABOUT THE VODKA?
Thankfully, after a stiff shot of whatever we could find in the secret Blog booze cupboard and a re-read of the email, it turned out the only casualty in this case was the English language. It was in fact a Fitch report saying: “Carlsberg Results Show Russian Beer Weakness to Continue”.
Blog doesn’t write analyst reports, but if we did, we’d probably be a bit less ambiguous.
