    All beers have their place in my opinion. I find smithwicks is available on tap in most hotels and makes for an easy to swallow cure on a boozy weekend!

    A Black and Tan has to be Bass and Guinness! Harp is awful.

    Mcardles is as close to an English ale as you can get, or see my other post about dungarvin ales.

    To me McArdles tastes like the Bass that's sold in Ireland (being a lot sweeter than the English variety).

    The rules changed ;) The Black and Tan was invented by the company who imported Guinness and Bass into the US. A few years ago they lost the contract for Bass so suddenly a Black and Tan became Guinness and Harp.

    The English keg Bass -- brewed at Salmesbury by A-B InBev -- is at least as sweet as the Glasgow-brewed keg one we get here, I'd say. Cask Bass is a proper bitter, though, and is brewed by Marston's in Burton.

    In Belgium they sell Bass in small bottles - any idea which type that is?

    To me it seemed much more bitter than the Irish one so I assume it's the Burton variety, although I haven't had it in a couple of years.

    That's brewed in Salmesbury, AFAIK.
