Mt very first post here was about the fake Duvel and Erdinger that I bought in Tescos and trying to contact someone about it to no avail. The main response was that I was probably after buying beer that an export version or that the dates were out but I knew I was right.
If you guys get the chance to watch this you will see how much fake alcohol is hitting mainstreet stores and, at the end of the doc, how Tescos wont accept responsibility for it turning up in their shops.
Whats disturbing is how beers like, Corona, Duvel, Erdinger are being faked as well as the usual suspects.
I realise that by sticking with craft beers I probably wont have the problem again but it's amazing how easy it is for the gangs behind this to get away with it.
Anyway, here's the link...(You may have to use an add on to watch it on the i-player itself.)
