Free Pints all round!

Its free pints this Christmas from Tennents. The well known brewery is giving away 40,000 pints to customer over the holidays. That’s about 6.8 million calories or 60,000 units of alcohol.Its a headline catcher alright but here is the question.
Will this promotion fall foul of the increasingly vocal lobby who are trying to change the relationship we all have with drink in this part of the world?
