Sounds like the beer is freeze distilled, kegged and then the pub uses somthing to mix the freeze distilled beer with water during dispense I think.

Just noticed this too - https://www.scientificamerican.com/arti ... footprint/ from 2021, but they're using RO for concentrating it

I imagine it would have the same problem of Coke etc served from a dispenser which mixes syrup with water and, in some pubs, all you can taste is chlorine. Anyway, it's nothing new, some pubs have been serving watered down beer for years

Interesting video though, cheers!

A old local phrase...
"The beer in this pub is like having a wee in a punt... pissing close to water!"

[Cobnut]

"the local water won't affect the taste of the beer"
