That the can had a "produced for" rather than a "brewed at" statement trumps all this conjecture for me. If a patriotic lager brand was brewed in Malta, chances are it would say "Brewed in Malta" on it. I suspect it's an importer/distributor getting it contract brewed abroad.The Beer Nuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14105708522526153528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12501248.post-82536192648961993322012-06-04T11:30:39.488+01:002012-06-04T11:30:39.488+01:00How about Ron Pattinson's European beer guide ...How about Ron Pattinson's European beer guide then? http://www.europeanbeerguide.net/maltbrew.htm<br /><br />seems to be a subsidary of lowenbraubeersiveknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13293913182389157112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12501248.post-44328304324815939232012-06-04T10:55:05.609+01:002012-06-04T10:55:05.609+01:00I don't think I'd buy the existence of a s...I don't think I'd buy the existence of a second brewery on RateBeer's say-so.The Beer Nuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14105708522526153528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12501248.post-15320196262780572792012-06-04T10:08:08.844+01:002012-06-04T10:08:08.844+01:00Apparently there are two breweries in Malta and th...Apparently there are two breweries in Malta and the 1565 is brewed there.
