Mentioned in the same sentence as 'beer'? You're taking the... :p:

Which ones have travelled half the world? Fosters is brewed by Courage, Red Stripe is brewed in Bedford, XXXX again brewed locally by inBev. Becks is one of the few still brewed where it should be. Didn't they move Newcastle Brown brewing out of Newcastle recently? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newcastle_Brown Ah yes, in Aug 2005 it was moved to Gateshead.

Hogs Back Brewery is not too far from Middlesex (between Guildford & Farnham) and does some very nice real ale (TEA:drunk:). You can also buy online.
