I noted the name on the labels - GoldQuell - as opposed to GoldFassl in the kegs and did a side by side of them back in the bar. <br />The keg was a bit more fizzy but not a lot of difference. And they were both served on top pressure out of tall bar fonts. <br /><br />So I'd guess the public didn't notice too much of a difference and had probably been 'softened up' over the decades by the beer likely now filtered and not kreusened. <br />On the other hand, ripping out handpumps and replacing them with Worthington E or Harp Lager was a bit more radical and alarming.
