Flashermac Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 DUBLIN, Ireland - Irish police were hunting for a beer bandit who stole 450 full kegs from the Guinness brewery â?? the largest heist ever at Ireland's largest brewer. National police said a lone man drove into the brewery â?? a Dublin landmark and top tourist attraction â?? on Wednesday and hitched his truck to a fully loaded trailer awaiting delivery to city pubs. Diageo PLC, the beverage company that owns Guinness, said the brewery had never suffered such a large-scale theft before in its 248-year history. Police said the raider took 180 kegs of Guinness stout, 180 kegs of U.S. lager Budweiser and 90 kegs of Danish beer Carlsberg. Guinness brews both of those foreign brands under license for sale in Ireland. Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
