I was simply making the point that it would be nice to restrict the thread to proper old fashioned british beer as there is already a lot of discussion about craft beer on here.
If by ‘proper old fashioned british beer’, you mean stuff like Watney’s Red Barrel, Worthington ‘E’, most of Courage brewery’s output, then the old joke about the artist painting an advertising poster for Courage Best, on being questioned about the couple having sex in a boat hidden away in one corner, replied that it summed up all the qualities of Courage beers, “****ing near water”.
I hardly ever used to drink beer when I was first visiting pubs, these days beer drinkers enjoy unparalleled riches when it comes to variety.
