It may be taken as read -- and indeed as an essential aspect of Eastercon heritage -- that the real beer runs out, to be replaced by hastily negotiated and progressively less real substitutes. England, my England.

-- Dave Langford, "Six Day Warp," from Attitude #11, July 1997

(I'm reminded that when the real ale ran out at the 2003 Eastercon, one of the substitutes was bottles of Bishops Finger. "You never know where it's been." Or was it, "You never know who it's been in"?)
