Banned From Serving Beer By The Litre

The owner of a Polish restaurant today described laws which ban him from serving beer by the litre as "barmy" after he was threatened with court action.

Nic Davison, who owns the Kuchnia Polska restaurant in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, with his Polish partner Dr Krystyna Ciurai, was served an infringement notice by trading standards officers for selling beer illegally because he serves the drink in litres rather than pints.

The 1988 Weights and Measures Act states draught beer must be sold in pints.

Mr Davison, from the Toll Bar area of Doncaster, was told by Doncaster Council standards officials he could face a court appearance and a £2,000 fine if he does not change his glasses within 28 days.
