I'm not going to be too specific about this because it might cause trouble, but the landlord of my local has developed his real-ale trade and has got into the GBG.
Recently the pub owners -lets call them Andjudytaverns- sold the pub to another company, lets call them Redbutterflytaverns. The latter are telling him he can only buy real ales from their list, which consists almost entirely of English beer and does not include the products of a local brewery (in Ayrshire) although these have gone down well.
They now plan to meter the ale lines to make sure the landlord can't buy ales not on their list.
Can Redbutterfly( not their real name) restrict the landlords choice in this way?
