Good-Bye To Coopers
Because of the shortage of barrels, London brewers are installing beer, tanks in their public-houses. The tanks, which are earthenware and porcelain-lined, will, it is claimed, keep the beer in far better condition than the cask. One firm of brewers who are fitting tanks in their hotels state that the idea is not a new one; it was first tried after the 1914 war.

Some London breweries have these tankers, which are lined with stainless steel,* so that the beer is unaffected by its passage from brewery to public-house
