What makes someone choose something (or questions, questions, questions)
Some things I've been thinking about over the last few days.
I like real ale. Normally, if I go to a pub that serves real ale then I will drink it. If I go elsewhere then I'll drink whatever. Given the choice, why do some folk drink something different? Is it because they don't like real ale? Is lager seen as a trendy drink and that's why they drink it?
Why is lager dearer in general than beer? The same basic ingredients go into both - water, malted barley, yeast, sugar and hops. The lager will more than likely have been 'made' by someone pressing buttons at a computer console. The real ale will more than likely have been made on a much smaller scale, by a man genuinely interested in what he's doing and producing. So why's crap lager 50p or more dearer than beer?
Not on the beer scene, but I heard someone on the train say - "look at the lovely view." What makes a lovely view?
