‘Beer Hunter’ lifts 40,000 pints of Guinness | The Register
Guinness’s St James’s Gate brewery in Dublin has been hit by an audacious raid in which an evidently thirsty man dubbed “the Beer Hunter” made off with 40,000 pints of the famous stout.
According to the Times, the perp simply drove into the brewery yard in his own HGV, hitched it to a “well-provisioned” trailer and drove out again. The total pintage nicked was 360 kegs of Guinness and Budweiser and 90 kegs of Carlsberg, worth a total of £46,000.
Sucks that he got stuck with Budweiser kegs in the process…
