Was thinking the other day about how beer was served in Australia years ago. Did we use those beer engine thingies the poms still use for their real ales? I suppose what I am getting at is, before gassing up everything with CO2, how did we get the beer from the cellar to the bar?
Also, was the beer more commonly an ale as opposed to the lagers CUB make today? If so, when did lagers take over?
If anyone can point me to a book with the history of Australian brewing and pubs with this sort of information I would be very appreciative.
Cheers
