I am not familiar with those, can someone give some examples of these types of beers?
- sam_lowry_ 3y agoThis is close to home-brewed kefir.
- boomskats 3y agoYour joke made me chuckle. I then googled it and realised the kefir I make and drink every morning apparently has 0.5-2% alcohol.
- flir 3y agoI can't, and I'm in the UK. Even UK-brewed Fosters, widely conidered to be flavoured water, is 3.7%.
- pfannkuchen 3y agoEven humans are basically flavored water.
- bluefishinit 3y agoThe brown ales can be very low gravity. Usually you get low gravity stuff from a cask. I've had lighter ales that are really low too, but I think they are hard to find. https://learn.kegerator.com/london-brown-ale/ https://learn.kegerator.com/london-brown-ale/
- alasdairking 3y agoYeah, this is like "pints of mild" in 1980s old man pubs in the North. I am skeptical such beers exist now in any mainstream pub or bar.
- ljm 3y agoBoddy's was a staple back up north until the Manchester brewery at Strangeways shut down. Going back a fair while now though. Feels like these days the selection of cask ale is more limited but you have more variations on an IPA than you can shake a stick at.
- rconti 3y agoFreewheel Brewing here in the SF Bay Area (Redwood City, to be specific, 1 block from my house to be much more specific to many fewer people) specializes in cask ales. Many of their beers are in the 4% range, and I love being able to get beer in an imperial pint. Their London Calling is 3.5%. http://freewheelbrewing.com/?p=312 http://freewheelbrewing.com/?p=312
