Our Guide To England

Cask ale, historic pubs, and craft beer!

The spiritual heartland of 'the pub', England is rightly regarded as one of the cradles of beer brewing and pub going. The social function of the pub throughout centuries has remained intact today. The special charms of an effective pub have captured the imaginations of the full spectrum of society. Economic change and fashionable trends haven't always been kind however, with issues such as the temperance movement and overbearing control of breweries and later pubcos jeopardising good beer and good pubs. In the face of the harsh and unforgiving wave of change, it is remarkable how many pubs have remained true to their values. Everything new is not automatically bad, far from it. The craft brewing scene has revived curiosity in different beer styles and largely improved the pubs that stock them. Pubs are also becoming more inclusive and diverse, from explicitly LGBTQ+ friendly spaces to Desi pubs, a fabulous mix of cultures can be found.
