Bass

I hadn't forgotten about Bass. And I didn't just mention them yesterday so I could slip in a crap joke.

As a brewery based outside London, there are far fewer entries in the Whitbread gravity book for Bass. This is all of the draught beer entries:

I noticed the same thing in the Bass and Worthington bottled beers: their gravities are higher than other breweries'. As is the degree of attenuation. The Mild from 1950, with a gravity of 1041, is the strongest I've seen amongst the post-WW II entries. Most barely reached 1030 at the time.
