Perhaps the most well known beer of the 60s and 70s, Watneys Red Barrel (or Watneys Red), can trace its origins back to 1931. Red Barrel was originally developed as an export beer that could be transported for long distances by sea. Like all keg bitter, it was filtered to remove the yeast, then, pasteurised and carbon dioxide added. Red Barrel was first sampled at the East Sheen Lawn Tennis Club where Watneys Master Brewer, Bert Hussey, was a member. By the early 60s, Watneys was transporting its kegs nationwide and were able to claim that it was the country's most popular keg bitter, and the first.
