    I'm aware of ones selling takeaway cans/bottles but kegs are being (have been?) returned to the brewers for tax refund and disposal.

    Everything returned due to sell by dates, refunds, customs duty refunds.
    All pipes, tubing etc will need thorough overhaul before reopening

    Kegs go back ,take the beer out and will be reused and goes for export
    Nothing wrong with beer that's a year or longer old

    Returned beer will have been poured down the drain and a Revenue refund received on the duty. Its not getting reused.

    The thought of that makes me feel so very, very sad.
