Is it just me, or has Sam's Old Brewery Bitter gone right down the pan in the past year? I don't drink it that often, but every pint this year has been cold and gassy, with a distinct sour note in the taste. This is across four or five different pubs.
I suspect but cannot prove that they're using blanket pressure these days. But that doesn't explain the sour taste.
(You may well ask why I keep drinking it. Such is the lot of the CAMRA activist, drinking bad beer so that others don't have to.)
