From time to time I’m obliged to update you on the new neo-prohibitionist measures so common in these days. Often these measures are barely sensible (and sometimes beyond reason), aiming to demonize alcohol without any distinction, lumping wine, beer, spirits and alcolpops together. These relate mainly to Anglo-Saxon countries, but, as we have seen in the past, Italy is not exempt from such procedures.

'10Misinformation leads to prohibitionism
There are days when since the night before I know exactly what I’ll write on Beer Chronicles. There are other days when instead I have not the slightest idea about it and I found myself combing through archives and websites to find some interesting information. I presume I’m always dealing with challenging issues basing on the reviews I get on the blog and sometimes I simply prefer to remain silent rather than get nowhere. I think that this is a compulsory rule to ensure a good quality product. Too bad that apparently not everyone think the same way. I am referring to the article published yesterday on the Roman version of Repubblica.it, where Laura Mari has offered a formidable example of tabloid journalism and misinformation.
