| Leaprechauns are Europeans.
It's connected with an EEC directive, I believe, but I don't have
the details. This will of course apply throughout the EEC within
18 moinths.

259.2 | It's called KAN-BAN | YIPPEE::BOYLE | | Thu Sep 03 1987 04:05 | 5 |
| According to yesterday's Times (British) it's an ecological move
aimed at reducing the amount of plastic and aluminium lying around.
98% of canned beers in Ireland are imported (mainly from U.K.).
Ireland is the first EEC country to implement this rule, and will
ban even home-produced canned beer by the end of the year.

| I can understand why you don't want plastic lying around, but aluminum
is recycleable.

| Canned brew tastes "tinny" So enjoy it from the glass bottle or
keg draft. Besides who wants to litter Ireland with cans or plastic
bottles?
