3. In Choueke (2006), an anonymous beer retail buyer comments on guinness’s decreasing sales volume:

Guinness has an older profile of drinker and with an ever-increasing availability of continental lagers and a fast-growing range of alcopops, the younger generation of drinkers simply haven’t bought into it. Innovation – widgets and gadgets – will keep the brand alive for a while but where else can Diageo go? Flavoured Guinness? No thanks. It is in decline and Diageo’s best minds can’t do much about it. The brand may have only a couple of decades’ worth of life in it and I would milk it for everything before getting rid of it and concentrating on spirits.

Do you agree with this statement? Explain your reasons.
