When in college I played rugby, and our team went to England for six weeks over the summer break. It seemed every pub had a generic ale on tap, sometimes it was pulled from a cask. This was in 1987.
Does anyone know what style of beer this likely was? bitter? mild? brown? I don't think it was very strong, but lots of flavor and it was very drinkable in quantity. If I had to recall I would think it was more malty than hoppy... but not overly sweet.
It seems like every pub had a variation of the same beer on tap, and I have never had it since. It all tasted the same to me anyway, coming from a world of coors light and natty bo. Would like to figure out what style it was and brew some at home.
