Much as I'd love to support them unfortunately I only drink cider, and have pretty much stopped drinking too.

They do cider too, in my last order I got quite a bit for a neigbour.Much as I'd love to support them unfortunately I only drink cider, and have pretty much stopped drinking too.
I didn't know that, only visited twice and both times they just had 2 to choose from and 1 i didn't like so not been back in a long time.They do cider too, in my last order I got quite a bit for a neigbour.
I'm not sure if older drinkers are more likely to be confused than younger drinkers but Henry's Law proves that pressure increases carbonation whether or not the extraneous carbon dioxide is in contact with the beer.Not necessarily. To confuse the older drinker there are now things called KeyKegs which don't bring CO2 into contact with the beer and which can contain either cask (real ale) or keg. (they can also contain cider, wine , coffee & other beverages). Basically the beer is squeezed out of a container through a tap.

Somewhat similar containers are available from other suppliers

No, you're forgetting the gas generated by the beer conditioning in the KeyKeg, carbon dioxide that dissolves in the beer just like extraneous gas pressure would.No, only when the gas is in contact with the beer, if the gas is not in contact with the beer it can't dissolve in it. In practice the difference in carbon dioxide content of cask and keyKeg beer is minute.

That's not my recollection of the gun shop where I found the KeyKeg beer to be over carbonated, and over chilled.Yes, but in practice the difference in carbon dioxide content of cask and keyKeg beer is minute.
KeyKegs are set at a particular pressure but that's invariably one giving a carbonation too high for those used to properly conditioned cask beer, and the degasing of KeyKegs rarely happens.Not sure about similarities to Porter Lancastrian & tests on KeyKeg show low carbonation if that is how the system is set up. It is also possible to degas KegKegs if the carbonation is too high.
Yes, they don't "need to be" at low temperature and higher than cask carbonation but nearly always are.To quote a small real ale brewer - "A quick point of information - we shouldn’t get carried away with the idea that Keykegs need to be served at usual ‘keg-level’ temp/carbonation. They can be used in place of casks and served by drawn beer engine." In addition if external pressure is used the pressure on is not set, it can be adjusted.

And his "can be" doesn't mean that often happens because it doesn't.
And the pressure "can be adjusted" but, as is invariably higherproperly conditioned cask beer
Floodgate is opening up again soon as The Devils Taphouse...I'm really pleased that candid are doing well. They are something completely different to anything else we have in stafford.
Candid is now my favourite place following the closure of floodgate.

So not everyone's put off by the "eye-watering" prices ( up to £8 for a can I've heard - and they're little ones not Party Sevens ! ) ?I'm really pleased that candid are doing well. They are something completely different to anything else we have in stafford.
