Nick H. Supervisor Posted June 20, 2018 Supervisor Share Posted June 20, 2018 Quote Beer could fall flat for World Cup as CO2 runs short A shortage of CO2 could take the fizz out of beer and other sparkling drinks this summer, just as the World Cup and barbecue season get under way. The UK has only two plants producing carbon dioxide and one is closed for maintenance, threatening to leave drinks makers high and dry. "It's already stopping production," said Brigid Simmonds, head of the British Beer and Pub Association. She has written to CO2 producers asking them to rectify the situation.

FloatingFatMan Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Sounds like a fake shortage to drive prices up to me. The timing of it is FAR too convenient... +E.Worm Jimmy 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only crap beer have fizz added to it, some good real ale out there, well in the UK anyway. Not that i am interested in the world cup what so ever.
