Pity. Bottled English ale pales in comparison to the real thing.i would if i could afford it and if there were any nice pubs near me serving nice ales. but theres not. and im poor.
More American style ales like Hooker and Purgatory is an exciting prospect (well for the likes of me and you anyway). Also, there's some really good stouts on the market lately. I've yet to try the new Hooker though. Messrs' Imperial is superb.I'm a drinker, not a brewer. And fortunately every Irish craft brewer who makes a bland lager makes at least one decent beer, so I'm rarely stuck for choice when selecting among them.
'Tis true. And I have recommended to a craft-brewing start-up not to go the traditional-but-dull stout-lager-red route. But I'm just a punter.
I'm starting to think I may just not like Red Ale.
