These days, I find myself giving a miss to quite a few supermarket PBAs on the basis that they're too often stale, if not completely dead.<br /><br />They're rarely *off*, though, which I guess is what you mean.<br /><br />Fuller's BCAs are generally spot on, in our experience: cask-like, but without tons of yeast floating about, and consistent.Baileyhttp://boakandbailey.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5623537812609722663.post-25351970367431400352014-03-03T08:27:27.034+00:002014-03-03T08:27:27.034+00:00The current poll option ought to have another opti...The current poll option ought to have another option.

What's worse is that its now seen to be swimming against the tide over this issue.<br /><br />I've had several inconsistent and decidedly undrinkable bottle-conditioned beers recently.
