Tempting offer
On average, a litre of beer costs around 7 euros in German pubs, and a one-litre bottle of sunflower oil in retail shops comes to about 4.5 euros. This is what makes the offer so tempting for many customers.

This is a nice deal
One customer particularly cashed in on this. He bought 80 litres of sunflower oil in Ukraine during a trip to deliver humanitarian aid, and swapped his shipment for eight crates of beer for his birthday party.
