walshie 2,804 Posted July 6, 2016 Report Share Posted July 6, 2016 Almost every pub I've been in round here has different bitters from other pubs. In the 2 pubs by me it's only the lager that's the same. You'd better try them all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PeskyWabbits 464 Posted July 6, 2016 Report Share Posted July 6, 2016 Did you know that Lager translates as longer, as in, it is brewed for longer. But I prefer nice weak beer that you can drink all night without falling over. Something like an IPA (India Pale Ale, was brewed for troops across in India. Not too strong, averages 3. Sorry, I have anorak tendencies Pesky 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
