Lager is having a renaissance thanks to a new generation of talented craft brewers
| Whether at a barbecue or in the pub, lager is the fizzy golden drink we Brits are famous for enjoying – three-quarters of all the beer we consume in the UK is lager. Yet it's also long been written off as a cheap, flavourless brew.
