Nice Video Marc
I am totally in favour of their campaign and nice footage/interview at the Timothy Taylor brewery. Bitter really should get more love.

Hopefully the captions are better on the 2nd and subsequent episodes; they were truly terrible in the first one. Although, I did enjoy watching it.

I think the ‘problem’ is it requires a bit more effort and more skill (cellarmanship) than simply kegging and serving draft. Just keeping a beer engine fit for serving requires routine preventative maintenance. But worth it for a fine English pint, imo.

The problem there is on YouTube ~98% of the captions are auto-generated so they frequently get it wrong (it's probably an American algorithm getting confused by non-Queen's English...).
There are a handful of disability-focused/adjacent channels that do them manually for this reason but they're the exception not the rule...

Yeah I get that, but in trying to create a professional video, surely they could’ve made the effort to do their own captions which properly reflected the content?JonB wrote: ↑Sat Mar 01, 2025 9:32 amThe problem there is on YouTube ~98% of the captions are auto-generated so they frequently get it wrong (it's probably an American algorithm getting confused by non-Queen's English...).
