However, what is termed "Real Ale" beer is very popular as a ' specialized' form of drinking.
Breweries , small in size, specialize in strong and varied flavours...a bit of a cult in some form.
A 'brew' would be mainly tea....people of my generation offer anybody who comes to visit a 'brew'.
A 'brew' is universally used to solve all manner of problems..e.g. "My husband has run off with her next door"..." Oh poor luv..have a brew [[ or cuppa...cup of tea).
Also , workmen love to knock off and have a brew....very regularly.
