That's what I noticed in two countries that I have lived in recent years. There is a big craft brewing scene both in Australia and in Poland. While it would be nice to get Polish craft beers in Australia, and also Australian craft beers in Poland, it's not economic unless it's very big name and sought after beer.
Also beer doesn't travel nearly as well as wine.
- afarrell 10y agoRight, but how does this impede selling Polish craft beer in Warsaw airport to a Pole who wants to introduce his London friends to some beers from his hometown?
- daemin 10y agoBecause airports charge a lot of money to the businesses that are there [0]. So the businesses have to appeal to the widest selection of travellers, so you get the most well known international brands and most general, safe, and average food. Craft beer is still mostly a speciality, and a lot of it is an acquired taste [1], so it cannot appeal to the majority of people. [0] For example there was an article some time ago detailing plans RyanAir had for offering free flights. They (and the airports I presume) would make money from the things passengers buy at the airports. [1] Bitter IPA, Sour beers, smoked beers, etc. Whenever we go out drinking craft beers, I always ask for a sample before I buy because there is always something that I don't like the taste of. I made the mistake before of ordering pints of beer and not being able to take more than a sip.
