Answer 2

The pivoautomaty, as they have come to be known, look like any other vending machine, with one key difference; as well as feeding money into the machine, you also have to swipe your national ID card through it, if you want to buy a beer. David Polnar was one of the pivoautomat's inventors:

"We can recognise a customer's age from their ID cards and passports. And the system works with all European and worldwide passports and ID cards also. This means we can recognise whether foreigners and tourists are older than 18 as well, and if they are, then they too can buy beer from our machine."

Mr. Polnar's firm took their pivoautomat to Pilsner Urquell. The brewer liked what they saw and embarked upon a six-month trial of the machine. Vladimir Jurina is the brewery's corporate brand manager, he explained why he went for idea:

"Because it was another point-of-sale for us. It is important to have other possibilities for us to sell our product. We would like to place the machines in places which are not normal outlets for our product."

Beer vending machines have been installed in hotels, sports venues and university dormitories. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the vending machines have enjoyed their biggest success amongst students.
