Article: Has Britain fallen out of love with lager? 14 years 2 months ago #2

I'd say it's a bit early to be calling the death of lager.

They talk about people in the 1970s switching from real ale to lager because ale was seen as dad's drink. Well now it's maybe seen as granddad's drink, which is maybe why it's making a bit of a come back (although lager is presumably actually losing ground not to ale but to wine and alcopops and stuff)

Couln't blame them if true. Lager would not be my first, or second choice but the lager in the UK is particularly mank. Flat, tepid and generally weak. Mind you any country that "invents" the lager-top gets what it deserves.
