I spend several weeks a year in Manchester, UK, and take every opportunity while I am there to try many different kinds of distinctive ales. Some of my favourites thus far are the Hook Norton Brewery's "Old Hooky"; smooth but flavourful, and with little aftertaste. Hobgoblin; a little lighter and not as sharp as McEwans (and the British label "Scottish Courage"), but with a similar distinction; also Theakston's "Old Peculiar" is not nearly as peculiar as it claims.
