I'll happily stand corrected, but I'd have thought there's quite a lot to
keeping cask beer and making sure it's served in top condition.


Exactly - but you have probably not experienced the cellerman's
workmanship in one of my local Wetherspoon pubs!


Same here - refurbished the pub but not the 'expertise' so I offered,
without asking the manager of my favourite pub as consultant. She was
reckoned, by two reps who covered half of England, to be the best beer
keeper in the country, i.e. thae whole world and Potters bar.
Even a 5.2% ale that was brewed a sack barrow delivery away was off.
I still have about £15 quids worth of CAMRA tokens to use - need to make a
profit on my membership!
