The ones which were knocking around later than that were generally weaker than Dinner Ales, only around 1040ยบ at most.Ron Pattinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03095189986589865751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-49241882776823318672021-03-26T10:32:47.841-07:002021-03-26T10:32:47.841-07:00Thanks.

Searching around your site it looks like there was also Table Beer which sounds sort of like weak porter and then mild and lasted into the 20th Century in at least Scotland and Kent.

You got Luncheon stout. But Dinner Ale and Luncheon Ale always seem to be a type of Pale Ale.Ron Pattinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03095189986589865751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-61124542244206735062021-03-25T22:13:49.894-07:002021-03-25T22:13:49.894-07:00Hi Ron,
