As the chill of winter gives way to the milder, welcoming breezes of spring, the British tradition of gathering at the pub for a pint becomes a highlight of social life. Draught beers and ciders are particularly beloved across the UK, where the unique blend of flavours tapped fresh from the keg offers a taste experience that bottled beverages often can't match. This ritual is not just about drinking; it’s about community, connection, and enjoying the company of friends in a relaxed setting.
