In my mind most beers are ales, there is really no big difference in how you make it between a lager/pilsner and some ale, but as far as the kind of taste and stuff, ale has its place, at least in the US.

- The Black Sheep Brewery Plc, Yorkshire, England. Black Sheep Ale. Pretty typical for English bottled beers; very nice head/foam, but the flavors lack some.
- The Black Sheep Brewery Plc, Yorkshire, England. Monty Python's Holy Ale. This beer is almost the same as the Black Sheep Ale, I bet it was just made for the funny label. All in all I keep discovering that english beers often arent that good in a bottle, or at least it does not compare to drinking it drought in a pub!
