Great Britain has the most breweries per capita in the world! For every 50,000 residents, there is one brewery. The craft brewing ‘real ale’ industry is expanding rapidly and exporting worldwide. Ale is the most British of beers! It is usually consumed between 12 and 14 degrees Celsius, lower than other types of beer with a lower alcohol content, between 3 and 6 percent. It is claimed that near Bangor in Wales, there is a pub where the famous recipe for Guinness stout was actually created! Nearly 90 percent of foreign lagers that are on sale in Great Britain are produced in the UK!
