I can't picture bobbies doing a raid, love to go to that police auction though...

I have to imagine they'll go back to the owners. Or is the legal system in the UK that different from here?

I love how the police who nabbed them were from Kegwatch... seriously though, great bust. I would have loved to get just three of those to convert to keggles.

You know, I was going to say "oh they're just teenagers" but wtf 1,000 kegs? ...and they have shipping containers?

 

[brewingmeister]

Kegs are controlled much more in the UK than the US. I imagine keggles are a rarity if they even exist over there because of the keg watch group. Even if you have one keg watch is looking for you.

They were probably in shipping containers because they have to take them out of the country to sell them for scrap.
