Sorry, I wasn't thinking Cincinnatti when I wrote the reply. The tracking being employed at major AUSTRALIAN (Foster's, Lion Nathan) breweries is RFID based not GPS.

The "tracking device" has nothing to do with preventing theft - it is to track kegs within the brewery for cleaning, filling, dispatch, delivery, return, maintenance, etc. It is feasible that individual kegs that go missing could be tracked to where they last were in the legitimate chain - but...

The Old Lion and British Arms in North Adelaide. Had a very memorable Sunday afternoon in the beer garden of the British Arms about 15 years ago. Would like to relate the story, but this would probably be my last post on here. Cheers Peter

Some fairly serious bushfires in the Kin Kin area tipped to get worse tomorrow - you OK Batz?

Visited the Carbrook Brewery yesterday, got the full tour and (like always) tasted some fantastic beers - particularly loved the NZ Hopburst. It doesn't get any better than that! :beerbang: :D
