    Default This sounds daft

    Late Knights brewer has opened a new pub in Brockley called the London Beer Dispensary. They have two mystery craft keg beers on one dark and the other light. They only reveal the names of the beers when the keg is finished. Innovative,hip, cool or plain daft.

    Plain daft to me and possibly with trading standards issues unless the ABV is displayed but irrespective of that it's still daft.

    Same in Brighton. I think you'll find they are aware of their legal requirements.

    My sentiment exactly, although the language was a little choicer, involving the word 'flying'!

    Its very similar to cask beer and in some cases is cask beer. Served a little cooler (but not always) a little more carbonated (but not always)and more expensive (always)but cannot be ruined by publicans or staff who think they know how to condition and serve cask beer. cheers john

    Erm, it's keg beer, so not at all similar to cask. In my experience, it's freezing cold, ferociously fizzy and hugely expensive. I dare say you've had more and different experiences, so I'm not saying you're wrong - just that that's my experience.

    Reminds me of the seventies:don't want to go back.(Well, not for the fizz.)
