Can I ask why you ...Have posted the following.....<br /><br />Can I ask why you have chosen to use a picture of beer for this article? Having read the article through several times I still can't see where beer is mentioned so it would seem that you are trying to deliberately mislead your readers.<br /><br />Beer is at its lowest level of consumption since the 1930s. It is lower in alcohol, on average, than wine, spirits and cider. Wine and spirits are taking an increasing share of total alcoholic drinks. So if you are looking to depict alcohol misuse it certainly shouldn't be an image of a pint that you use to represent it.<br /><br />Won't hold my breath waiting for it to go live thoughKristyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02641030168757305205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2481997963035980408.post-88145233340010022592010-01-08T12:30:17.184+00:002010-01-08T12:30:17.184+00:00Could be smoothflow.

Telegraph went with red wine, The Times picture-less (online anyway).Mark, Real-Ale-Reviews.comhttp://real-ale-reviews.comnoreply@blogger.com
