That's rough. But at least they can still drink beer.

I don't think it will last. From what the article suggests, the government have implemented a long-term solution to a short-term problem. It's an emergency action.

I'd wager that spirituous beverages will be available to me when (or, if!) I visit in 2014. Let's wait and see. In the mean time, I'm sure that the landlocked Czechs will have little problem in driving to Germany, Poland, Slovakia or Austria.

The problem is that they don't care that much. They will just start to look up relatives and other acquaintices for home distilled beverages. Which is completely the opposite their government intended.

No. It's perfectly safe. At least the way it works here in Hungary, reasonable drunkards have information about safe sources. As for the unreasonable ones, it may turn troublesome. I find it natural selection in its prime time.

I guess it was good timing for my son to visit Prague last month. I'll have to let him know his timing was impeccable. By the way he got nicely toasted all weekend on very little cash.

If your son is single, get ready for him to introduce you to a Czech bride very soon. I have never felt myself surrounded by beauty as I have in Czech republic ever.
