Cuba is running out of beer.

This could explain why I cant get Bucanero in Brazil anymore.

I couldn't imagine living with a beer shortage!

Couldn't they just mix it in St. Louis and float it down the Mississippi and then on to Havana in barrels as Agriculture material. The interesting thing about this is that In-Bev is a foreign controlled company and should be able to transfer assets from one country to another.. Could they just relocate agriculture products under the easing of restrictions. When does something go from being an agriculture product to raw material?

Story on the news this morning that the cost of hops are going through the roof due to the demand for craft beers. Prices for your favorite quaff could increase by up to 50% in the next few months.

Perhaps there is a correlation to the reduction in beer and the reduction in cigar production?
