History

The Fischer brewery was founded in 1821 in Strasbourg, in the Alsace region in France, and moved to Schiltigheim in 1854, because of the water quality there. In 1922, they took over the neighbouring Adelshoffen brewery and became "Groupe Pêcheur" (the French translation of the German "Fischer"). "Groupe Pêcheur" was in turn taken over by Heineken in 1996.

In 2008 Heineken announced that it would close the brewery by the end of 2009 and transfer production to the l'Espérance (en: hope) brewery, also in Schiltigheim.[1]

Products

Fischer produced Desperados, a pale lager flavored with tequila. The firm also brewed Desperados Mas. This is 3% ABV and also flavoured with tequila.

gollark: There are various problems with this:- massive increase of complexity in guns- you would need to recharge it constantly, and it would need batteries and such, and would generally be a hassle- GPS spoofing (possibly just jamming, depending on design) would stop guns working- people could probably just remove the geofencing bit- how are you planning to keep the "do not shoot here" lists updated on all of them?
gollark: I sent this mere *hours* ago.
gollark: Does the particular context of it change the meaning much? Or imply that you should only do that sometimes?
gollark: Language is hard, since it often deals with things which are hard to rigorously define in the first place, is subject to bizarre evolutionary pressures, and is often manipulated for argumentative gain.
gollark: ... why is it not embedding, bee you, Discord
