What is real ale in a bottle?
Real ale comes in bottles too! It is a beer that continues to ferment, mature and condition within the bottle. It contains a visible amount of viable yeast cells together with sufficient sugars for fermentation to take place. Bottle conditioned beers will continue to improve and mature in the bottle but they should be kept in the cool and the dark. Top The future for real ale Is there a future for real ale? 84,000 CAMRA members think so. And so do 450 UK brewers. Although the largest brewers have almost entirely abandoned real ale, the country’s regional and family brewers and the 400 microbrewers are great believers in the future for real ale and many have seen their sales of real ale increase over the last few years. In the last year there have been 80 new breweries which have set up and for many breweries business is booming.
