Heineken here is a separate operation to the UK (brewed here, from Irish malt vs brewed in Holland for the UK), so interesting how dropping them in the UK will have absolutely no effect on the Irish operation. Except getting them all sacked.[/quote:1rpoexj2]


Are the bottles not imported?

"Heineken requested Wetherspoon chief executive John Hutson give personal guarantees to pay all Heineken bills if Wetherspoon did not pay them, according to the pub chain."

Odd considering they are a very successful pub chain , 60 million in Heineken last year.

I wonder how much beer JDW where planning to get of Heineken?
