Absolute nightmare - even here in Franken (Northern Bavaria) there are many smaller breweries that fill most of their beer into barrels.
After inns are closed and there are no festivals, there is no demand and the barrels are now reaching the end of their best-before date.
Of course you could still drink the good beer, but sales of "old" beer are not allowed.
That is why these beer kegs are dumped into the wastewater.
Same in Great Britain. Almost 50 million liters of draft beer have to be destroyed due to closed pubs, as calculated by the British Beer and Pub Association according to the BBC.
What a waste!
