It used to be the case that a pub/bottlo taking possession of a keg would included in the price of the keg pay a deposit or bond against the keg. Generally an account would be run, so until the premises stopped trading or a stoctake was taken, no discrepancy would be noticed. None the less, if you are 2 kegs out, you don't get your deposit back for those 2 kegs. A few years ago the deposit was $40 peg keg. In some cases supply of product would cease until the lost kegs were accounted/paid for, and I do know of one bottle store that was blacklisted by DB brewery and Lion Nathan because their keg losses were unacceptably high.
None of you really believe that the brewery wouldn't charge someone for the keg that was lost while in their possession do you? I mean - c'mon.....of course they charge establishments for losses.
Big businesses don't stay big by throwing their money away........
