Don't Mess With Germany's Beer!
Published By admin on 8 years ago

We could certainly take note of this slap on the hand that the German government imposed on some of the country's largest retailers.

Apparently, there was an unnecessary hike in prices on the more popular beers being sold. Why? Because demand was high, of course, but the German government didn't particularly care for this gouge in their citizen's pocket. So, what was their solution? Digging into the retailer's pocket and fining them 90 million euros ($103 million).

Think these crooks learned their lesson...?

Cheers.
