Did they offer any beverages before that? I was on a MAD - BER two weeks ago and the first hour after take-off passed without any service, then they hectically brought the meals out and refused serving alcoholic beverages after all the trays had been cleared again (it was no problem getting refills in between). It'd be great to see more crews flouting those ridiculous IB drink policies (which on paper are the same as AY, right?)
