Surely bitter is preferred to lager in Barnsley (and here).

Surely bitter is preferred to lager *anywhere* in civilised society?
We no twitface account in any case. Brian
No account is needed to view the photo which shows what looks like lager in a straight pint glass with a small pork pie cut and put on the rim with a caption reading "If you've had a stressful day at work, why not put your feet up and enjoy a Barnsley cocktail".
And there's me thinking Barnsley folk might have stuck to drinking beer from a dimpled mug - even if they had to import them :).
To make a true cocktail with class you'd have to smear ketchup around the rim of the glass.
Tomato ketchup or course, you wouldn't want a brown smear around your rim would you. ;-)
A red one is any better?

My first thoughts as well:-). But non of stuff that is as flat as a witches tit they sell down south.
Beer's not meant to be fizzy pop ;-)
(Says the southerner)
It should have a head:-)

Piss off, you have to pay for that fizz.
Yes, a light fluffy one, that can support itself above the brim of the glass. Not some slimey gunge that can't and doesn't collapse so you get short measure.
It should be in an oversized glass. Anyone still using pint glasses is deliberately ripping the customer off.
Our local beer festival supplies glasses with 3 lines - 1/3, 1/2, and a pint. The rim is above them all.
