>Limited supply of goods due to lack of carbon dioxide
Dear Business Partners, we would like you to inform, that there may be problems with the availability of goods for week 36/37. Our carbon dioxide supplier has not been supplying us for over 2 weeks and has declared "force majeure". A delivery could not be promised until today. All attempts to get alternative solutions or other suppliers have unfortunately failed. We will continue to try to find a quick solution. Due to these facts, we can only produce bottled and draft beer to a limited extent. We will continue to deliver from stock, but there will be shortages of individual varieties due to availability. We hope for your understanding and a timely start of production.
Does this have the real possibility of causing bigger riots than covid?
Carter Davis
Not just the beer, but the energy crisis
Thomas Wright
We ran out of CO2 in the scamedemic. Its a waste product from other industries so I guess if you close those other industries you have no CO2.
These are the kinds of things our government didnt think of when getting involved in foreign wars.

>Germans can't gas their beer anymore Dear God How will they vent now
Wyatt Bailey
Yes, but they likely won't come from Germany or rather its western part. I look to France, Italy and eastern Germany.
Tyler Kelly
the where news thats the feds did a research if and how big the riots will be! they are in full damage controll allready.
>the machine is deeply worried!
Blake Carter
You've been drinking russian gas beer this whole time? That explains a lot.

ukraine is like a big concrete block tied to our foot while swimming

beer, softdrinks, mineral water - pretty much everything except fruit drinks are carbonated in germany. So it has it's impact on the way of life soon.
Will it lead to riots. Monday protests compared last week in our town doubled this week over the numbers of last monday. Still not many. From ~75 to ~200. Mind that at the best ~500 protested covid at the high during winter.
But the situation has potential.

durchschnittspolitiker täuscht bestürzung bei demos vor, hinterm rücken & im privaten gehts am arsch vorbei. einzige was die wirklich fürchten ist wenn man bei denen privat vorbeikommt. ansonsten demo irgendwo durch ne stadt is eher so bissle sportliche ertüchtigung oder spaziergang aber rumkommen tut da nix
The one gas is not the same as the other. Food industry has it's own chain of CO2 that will be extracted out of normal air. CCS (Carbon Capture and Storage) technology would also get you CO2. But since it can be contaminated, it is not "pure enough" to be used in food industry. Not that you can't make it so that it is indistinguishable to the other, but overregulation is what it is.

>eher so bissle sportliche ertüchtigung oder spaziergang aber rumkommen tut da nix Ach ne. Nichtsdestotrotz haben die Spaziergänge noch ausartendere Maßnahmen verhindert. Ohne diese bin ich mir sicher, dass die allgemeine Impfpflicht schon längst umgesetzt wäre ...

That is different to the UK then. >The majority of UK-produced CO2 comes as a by- product from the two fertiliser plants, owned by CF Fertilisers, at Ince and Billingham. >Between them they are the source of approximately 60% of UK consumption.
Justin Hall
>Germany can't make beer any longer...
It is time to burn this whole fucking shitheap of a world to the ground. No survivors.
>That is different to the UK then. Well CO2 also is made as a byproduct of this. But I was referring to carbon capture technology germany researched and implemented in ordinary coal plants as a way to reduce carbon footprint of germany.
Yeah, in the anglosphere they don't give a shit about food purity. They'll put weird hormones in their cows, rat poison in the water and corn syrup in baby formula.
That is a great technology and its wonderful to see Germany moving away from childish naive ideas like windmills. But when you have sulfur and stuff in coal I can see why they are being extra cautious using that biproduct for drinks.
Joshua Rodriguez
I just checked on google and it seems we dont do any of that. For example chinks buy up our baby formula in massive quantities because its done to a high standard.
Easton Carter
Im sure their wives and gfs can do cocaine with turks and moraccans instead of drinking warm beer at octoberfest this year.
Eli Rodriguez
don't need c02 to make good beer. just bottle before fermentation is finished and it'll pressurize itself.
John Powell
It seems you've managed to ban hormones in meat at least, despite all the pressure from the US to allow it. Good for you.
