Valuable Cargo

660 BATHTUBS OF BEER

The product choice of our American beer lover comprised exclusively of so-called craft beers. Craft beers are enjoying increasing popularity worldwide. These are creations by small breweries, which are often only produced in small batches. The brewers make use of carefully selected raw materials and the most modern standards. Even though this type of beer is produced based on traditional recipes and brewery processes, the creativity of the brewers has led to the discovery of new and stronger flavors. Due to the delicate manufacturing process and the small production quantities, this type of beer is more expensive than the regular pilsener beer. Moreover, the beer was bottled in glass bottles and, as a consequence, a lot of caution had to be exercised throughout the entire transportation process in order to ensure a safe and sound delivery of the merchandise.
