Taedonggang
Taedonggang is a brand of North Korean beer brewed by the state-owned Taedonggang Brewing Company based in Pyongyang. Technically, it is actually 4 brands,〔(Taedonggang Brewery ) Ratebeer〕 though the brand known simply as "Taedonggang Beer" is that described below.
==History==
In 2000, the North Korean government decided to acquire a brewery. At that point having good relationships with the West, via connections to Germany the Government of North Korea bought the intact and still in place brewery plant of the closed Ushers of Trowbridge, Wiltshire, England for £1.5M via broker Uwe Oehms. Concerned it could be used for chemical weapons production, after assurances Peter Ward, of brewing company Thomas Hardy Brewing and Packaging bought the plant, and arranged for a team from North Korea to travel to Trowbridge to dismantle it. Reinstalled and operational from 2002, the brewery uses German-made computerized brewing control technology.
Taedonggang beer is named after the Taedong River, which runs through the center of Pyongyang.
On July 3, 2009, a commercial for the product was broadcast on state-run Korean Central Television in a rare move, as there are very few advertisements on North Korean television.〔(In apparent first, North Korea airs beer commercial on state TV ). ''Los Angeles Times''. July 3, 2009〕〔(North Korea launches beer advert ). BBC News Online. July 3, 2009〕 It has been broadcast three times in all.〔(N.Korea Ends Experiment with TV Commercials ).
