sketchy, what your saying seems prety similar to the sort of thing we have in the UK I.e. most peole just drink large branded beers, although enthusiasts tend to go for beer from the smaller breweries.
-
Ah, when I'm over there (UK), I like to drink bitter in pubs for they tend to be "local" more often than the other brands. Plus you cannot have it anywhere else.
-
sadly the local pubs are starting to decline. A lot of them get bought out by big breweries who obviously aren't very keen on selling other peoples alcohol for them.
-
I have some clients that I draw up pubs for. I think there is a slight north south divide on beer in the UK, in the north traditional beers are more popular, in the south, with the exception of real ale, lager is more popular. Remus is right; the epidemic of chain bars is apparently making it very difficult for the traditional independant pubs and small breweries to stay in business.
Where are you in the UK Remus?As for pricing, I live in Hull, not that far from Dylan's town, the best beer in my local pub is Jupiler from Belgium or Budvar Dark, both about £2.20 a pint.
-
somerset, im not really sure what the situations like here, pubs wise, as i dont got ot he pub very often. I only commented because all the good pubs in my favourite holiday spots are beign taken over by the big breweries. Its very sad, all those good memories disappearing in a flurry of white paint and smoke free pubs
-
My corner bar is actually a "wine cellar" (more exactly the cellars of a 18th century granary that has been pulled down ever since) but runs a variety of beers, too (only bottled ones though). Budwar Dark would be less than a Pound though.
But there is an even greater choice of wines (all from the region) that are "on tap" (not bottled - we pay by decilitres).

Hmmm!!
Notice a trend here?
The places with high gas prices have cheap beer and visa-versa...life is yin-yang.

Well, I'm starting to wish that cars could be run with beer, or milk. The cheapest beer is only slightly more expensive than gas today, and milk is about the same price if not cheaper...

well petrol and beer are both pretty expensive in the UK (im talking about a proper pub bought pint, not tescos finest) so i suppose we're going to have to fall back on to the fact that its generally pretty good quality.
-
Alot of the local bars and taverns around are closing or selling out, more hip, trend setting night club type places,the kind younger crowds seem to like are replacing them. But I'm lucky enough to live very close to a great place for a good dinner and a good beer. I'm sure almost anyone would find a good beer here as their selection is the biggest that I've ever seen. Just check out this selection, all prices are USD. http://www.sharpedgebeer.com/html/full.htm
