Brewers Sue Health Official

The Union of Russian Brewers sued Evgeni Bryun, the Chief Narcologist of the Ministry of Health and Social Development, for libel. In an interview Bryun stated that brewing technology rules were systematically breached in Russia, and that brewers added ethyl alcohol to beer to increase its strength. “Much beer is produced in Russia, but you can not drink it,” said the official. The brewers accuse Bryun of “demonizing beer” and demand that he retract his statements.
