Very true, when I was a Youff the pint bottles which came from Dublin were bottled conditioned. The half pints from Park Royal? wern't. The draught isn't real ale unfortunately.

That I don't know! I only ever made beer from tins or dry kits. I've made hundreds of gallons of wine, but as a beer drinker found that I got a bad head as I drank it by the pint! I do know that a lot of the home brewers at the time used to 'cultivate' the sediment from the bottles for their own versions.

As with most clones its impossile to match exactly but I think the ingredients are on the money but yeast you cant replicate.Ive no intention of trying water tratment at the moment,I need to be a lot more experianced and consistancy,but I think that water can be replicated. After all branded beers are brewed world wide and I suspect the water is treated to be the same at all locations.

I think I just said
"Its the same the ole world over"

You are right in what you say about water. The Brewery companies control yeast and water to such a point that there is little variation in the flavour and quality. There was a time when beer varied from week to week in flavour, but with the evolution of high tech yeast propogation and management the yeast is always the same, meaning the beer always tastes the same.

Back to the water - most large breweries have a reverse osmosis plant and start with "pure" water to which they add pre-determined quantities of salts and minerals to recreate the chemical composition of the water where the beer was originally produced. You can safely open a can of the amber nectar and whether it was brewed in Reading, Manchester or Tadcaster it will taste the same, insipid, sickly sweet but none the less the same.

I remember the Park Royal strike in the early 80's and all we could get was the pint bottles from Dublin.
Oh happy days :D
I've never touched the Park Royal muck or wherever it's brewed now since.
And they used to say it doesn't travel well :shock:

Prefer a Murphys or Beamish myself out of the tap but not had those in a while.

Stout I'm not sure would be that good in a pork sausage,great with beef but with pork I think you need a different flavour.
I'm probably going to go with a porter or good dark bitter.

It's brewed in Dublin, shipped to Runcorn and packaged there, I forget exactly the way round they do it, but as I understand it they have double deck trailers, part tanker, part flatbed, they either bring in cans plus tankered product and keg it in Runcorn, or bring in kegs and fill cans in Runcorn.

I don't think that it's bottle conditioned anymore, is it?
