11 July 2012

While there have been some complaints about the pricing of Heineken at the London Olympics this is the first I’ve heard of a protest of the actual beer choice itself.  This from FoxSports:

Greg Mulholland, the chairman of the All-Party Parliamentary Save the Pub Group, introduced a motion in British Parliament that condemns the Olympic Committee for choosing Heineken as the Summer Games' official beer.

Mulholland contends that a beer brewed in the United Kingdom — or at least representing the high taste of British pubgoers — be used over the Dutch import.
