Ah, So Very British™ — saying things are Fine*when you really mean they’re awful.
Except that’s not what*we*mean.
When we say Fine, we mean Fine — that is, adequate,*the mildest form of Good.

And you know what? We drink a fair bit of beer that isn’t Fine. It’s not Awful or Dreadful — it’s just, like most stuff, floating around in the middle, stirring little beyond a shrug, an appreciative nod or a momentary frown.
We like to keep something back for the gold medal beers, and for the absolute stinkers.
The rest of the time, Fine is OK.
