1-11. What is "draught" (draft) beer?

     Technically speaking, draught beer is beer served from the cask in
     which it has been conditioned. It has been applied, loosely, to any
     beer served from a large container. More recently, it has been used
     as a promotional term for canned or bottled beer to try to convince
     us that the beer inside tastes like it came from a cask. See also
     "Real Ale".
