With respect folkman, thats a load of bollocks, real ale is a living thing, this is where the different beers get their individual character, you obviously prefer bland nitro-keg pop.

The EU will do no such thing, do you think the Germans and the Belgians, who brew some of the worlds great beers will put up with that ? Germany already has strict laws governing the brewing of beer. Incidently a lot of German beers are lagers, Fosters, Carling, Miller and all the rest of the factory made beers bear no comparison to proper lagers.
