beer, glorious beer! - ask. · pdf fileas it was always cleaner than the water. ......

The drink ThaT’s as quinTessenTially BriTish as The union Jack or a red phone Box.

Beer has been produced in Britain for thousands of years.

By the Middle Ages it was already our number one drink,

as it was always cleaner than the water. And today our

thirst for more and more beer is unquenchable. So join us

on a tasting trail around the British Isles; you never know

what you might find – a Banana Bread or an Old Tom with

Chocolate; the eccentric names can only hint at the taste

sensations which lie ahead.

All of our featured beers have their own unique

characteristics and complexities, with differences in style,

quality, taste and strength. By tasting different types of beers

you’ll soon learn to appreciate the variations

(a convenient excuse in anyone’s book). And if you’re spoilt

for choice and simply don’t know where to start, we’ve

just the thing – a ‘beer flight’. These selections offer three

different beers (a 1/3 of a pint each) from a chosen region of

the country.

And if beer doesn’t float your boat (or should we say sail your

ship?) we have some refreshing fruity alternatives for you

from the major cider producing counties of Herefordshire

and Somerset – like Old Rosie and Orchard Pig.

So whether you’re an authority on ale, or a true

‘beerginner’, let the journey commence and the amber

nectar flow. Bottoms up!!!

Beer, glorious beer!
