There is a serious campaign in full swing here in Britian. The Campaign for Real Ale.
With the popularity of the lagar on the rise, the traditional Cask Ale is in danger of extinction, along with many of the historic small town pubs that cling to only serving the traditional beer. This is what the propaganda states anyway.
Local pubs carry about three different types of cask ales and usually only from breweries in the local region. This makes each pub unique, but we were looking for some more selection.
Then Jesse stumbled upon the CAMRA beer festival in Bath with 70 cask ales!
We found ourselves the youngest in line for opening night, but after a few hours, we were not alone.
So I tapped this friend on the shoulder for a picture of his "pants". He quickly agreed and asked if I wanted him to drop his trousers. My face went even redder, and I quickly answered that that was really not necessary and a pic of his "trousers" would be best. We left after that priceless moment.
Haha. I love the pants story. And also the pumpkin and awesome cathedral in your previous posts! I am also so proud of you for using math to convert from metric units! I miss you! Call sometime! (Yes, and I know I need to set up skype still!)
