Having been in the beer biz and shifted a huge amount of real ale in my time, I assert that travel (at least in the UK) isn't the issue. It's turnover. As a general rule, if you can't clear a cask within 3 days of opening, it's going to suffer! Some stronger beers have more legs, especially if they're still working hard (Double Dragon is a good keeper as are the three I mentioned.)
The only Flowers I can recall (things may have changed) wasn't a bad lighter beer, especially considering it's a Shitbread product!
I'm sure your comment about pipes applies, although if the pipes are an issue then turnover and care are likely to be an issue too (which spile to use, re-spiling when closed ...). The pub trade has often been cursed by clueless landlords who think that running their own pub would be "neat"!
Life is like a s**t sandwich; the more bread you have, the less s**t you eat.

Nothing, because bearing gifts is not what giving thanks is about.
Just eat them out of house and home, and say "thanks" as you leave.

...send it by van!
I just had an email to say that
Hello Mr **** ******,
Your ****** ***** parcel is now with your local ****** courier for delivery.
For complete tracking history please click below:
Kind regards,
The ****** team (Redacted for anonymity - it's Herself's Xmas present and I don't want her to see any clues)
Which is fine!
Except...he delivered it an hour ago...so a man and a van is faster than your email system.

Hi ****, I just wonder why you felt the need to redact your name. What clues could she possibly get from that?
Unless she still believes in Santa that is.

Oh c'mon OG everyone knows your name - no need to hide it, and Internet who would trust on it when it is full of 500s and 404s, only a few chances for 200.

It seems that she also hasn't told you hers.
I'm retired. There's a nap for that...

Movie Quote Of The Day
Maybe my life hasn't been so chaotic. It's just the world that is and the only real trap is getting attached to any of it. Ruin is a gift. Ruin is the road to transformation.
Which movie?
