I know that this should have been posted in the Food and Drink forum but I want answers and I want 'em pronto.
Can someone dispell this silly myth about English dishwater?

Some folks will have you believe that English beers are the business when in fact they are nothing more than ullage. Surely if you are going to quench your thirst you will want a chilled refreshing beer like Victoria Bitter rather than some warm, insipid, grey water that is labelled with names like 'Old Speckled Hen' or some such.

What is your beer of choice?

Only serious respondees please.
