I just found out that these episodes are on Youtube.
A few months back BBC America ran a series called "Oz and James Drink to Britain." It's continuation of a series of shows pairing British wine expert Oz Clark, with James May, one of the hosts of the British Top Gear."
In past series it's been more about wine. But this season covered the other world of British drinks, notably beer. cider and spirits.
They're a very lighthearted programs with great bantering, and a bit of info on homebrewing (badly) and the history of British brewing, showing the various regions, like Yorkshire and New Castle.
They may not be serious historical treatises, but they are a hoot.
Ep 1 Clarke and May travel to Yorkshire and Derbyshire, learn what goes into beer and visit a vineyard.
EP 2 Clarke and May travel to Wigan and visit a small commercial brewery.
EP 3 Clarke and May travel to Scotland, receive a blindfolded whisky tasting and meet brewers.
EP 4 Clarke and May travel to Ireland, test Irish Guinness and host "Strictly Come Drinking".
