A long time ago (maybe even 20 years) I bought a pack of Whitbread. Upon getting home I found that all of the bottles were only half-filled. I took it back to the store (gourmet grocery, Jungle Jims in Cincinnati) and approached the beer counter. A woman was working on paperwork with her head down, and I said, "Excuse me, I've got a problem with a beer I bought here." Her head dropped a little, as if she was thinking "Oh No! Not another beer geek." I showed her the bottles, and she burst out laughing. "Don't you know that's Whitbread's new light beer?" What a great impromptu line! In discussing it with her she told me they'd had lots of problems with Whitbread packaging. "They must have the worst quality control of any beer we get." She told me they had received entire pallets where not a single bottle had a cap, and mostly unspilled. I never saw one of those bottles, and I'm not entirely certain I would have tasted one if I did.
