Barbus... Please explain...

Paulaner Girl filled up our beer fridge last week.  Yay.  Have some good San Diego beer. However, for my friend's who don't like hops, she bought some Newcastle Brown Ale.

Newcastle Brown Ale is NOT from England.  It is brewed in a country called Holland.  Really?  WTF???

This is what happens with BREXIT 😎 ....
In 2017, Heineken announced that production would move from the John Smith’s Brewery, Tadcaster, to the Zoeterwoude Brewery in the Netherlands. The company claimed this would allow for shorter order lead times and faster transportation to the U.S. and allow distributors to purchase by the pallet rather than the container (source: Wikipedia)

Now that the ale is a real European quality product the US Trade Representative's office has followed a statement from President Trump and will charge it with an extra 25% tariff. 😂😂🍺🍺
