Well, after reading the headline and then the article, I am a bit disappointed. The words "beer pipeline" alone triggered a daydream...

How hard is it to 'tap' into the beer pipe line?

I don't know but we should find out.

The future of plumbing. Hot, Cold and Pilsner.


I wonder how that will go, in that they have 3 varieties. Three pipelines, one pipeline with a good wash in between or just go with the flow?

We are a country of engineers... ;-)

Btw, Spark thanks for the thread and a comment to educate you :
Brugge is the spelling in Flemish, Bruges is the spelling in French.

(actually Brugge means 'bridges', as it is a city of canals, you have to cross them from time to time).

Good to know.

It's Bruges in English too. and in Bruges they call it Bruges because they are flems there.
