Beer is generally thought to be a man’s drink. Emma Mahony agreed, until she tried the new ales that brewers are creating specifically for women

Janet Street-Porter is prising off her purple high heels, seated at a table groaning with new “female-friendly” beers. “I hate everything about beer culture,” she carps.

“I hate the smell of beer, I hate men’s beer guts, I hate all the crap that goes with beer.” She pauses only to put on her trainers and summon new vitriol. “You know, one in four pubs is closing and they deserve to close because they are bloody crap!”

Right ho, Janet. The balanced discussion on why British women tend not to drink beer has got off to a lairy start. I can’t help thinking that if this were a group of Frenchwomen discussing wine, the conversation might be a little more elevated. But it certainly confirms that Project Eve, a new campaign to encourage more women to give beer a try, has some way to go: Street-Porter is not alone in her antipathy to the hop.

Only 13 per cent of British women choose beer over other drinks, compared with 40 per cent on the Continent.

This is the attitude that Kristy McCready, MD of BitterSweet Partnership, wants to change with the multimillion-pound campaign. It is not about encouraging a return to the ladette culture of the 1990s, but an attempt to help beer to shake off its overwhelmingly male image.

“We are encouraging women to have a choice,” she says. “We want to listen to women about what they want, get behind what they want and then speak to the licensed trade. We hope to change the landscape of beer.”

So what are they up against? Well, for a start there’s the big one: nearly 50 per cent of women polled for the initiative complained that drinking beer would make them put on weight. Add to this the more than 40 per cent who say the advertising is unappealing, and the third who see drinking beer as “manly” and you’ve got substantial opposition before anyone has even got on to taste.

The BitterSweet Partnership counters the weight claim with a number of studies, including “The relation between drinking pattern and body mass index and waist and hip circumference” (Tolstrup et al, 2005), which suggests that if you are drinking beer moderately every day you are less likely to suffer from obesity and will be slimmer than “someone whose consumption pattern is to only binge occasionally”.

The study shows that the risk of obesity is almost 30 per cent lower for those consuming over seven days per week as opposed to two to four days.

As to the manly accusation, the chef and restaurateur Allegra McEvedy, co-founder of the healthy fast-food chain Leon, prefers the word “ballsy” and is keen that women should overcome their prejudices to sample the great tastes of different beers.

McEvedy, a keen drinker of Guinness, feels very comfortable holding a pint. “The stereotypes around beer annoy me and get my back up. It is a fantastically crafted drink, but the most important aspect of it is taste and environment. I like to drink Sagres lager, London Pride, Guinness in winter, or Doom Bar beer in Rock in Cornwall. All of these have wonderful flavours — just like a glass of wine.”

McEvedy is also a keen advocate of using beer in cooking. “For example, just try putting a bottle of London Pride into a casserole, or a porter beer chucked into boeuf bourguignon at the beginning,” she says. Her interest today is in some of the “female-friendly” beers being tasted by the panel, beers that the industry will be rolling out in tasting sessions across the country over the summer.

I am sorry to say that I found the beers unpalatable. I hope that the clear beer, developed by Coors as a first for the UK market and as yet un-named, never sees the light of day for the sake of all those street cleaners in town centres on Sunday mornings. Flavoured with “dragon fruit and green tea”, it looked like lemonade and tasted like a sickly alcopop.

Equally gassy and difficult to drink was the “beer cocktail with crème de peche and cranberry juice”, and the Kasteel Cru Rose was a disappointing alternative to any middle-of-the-road rosé wine. Just as I was ready to leave unconvinced, hope sprang in the form of Harry’s Beer, made by Harriet Easton, 20, a student at Newcastle University, who has created a new beer with a citrus twist specifically for women.

“When I was going out at 16 or 17 I used to drink alcopops, but they made me feel sick because of the sugar. So I switched to lagers.” One day, hanging around in a bar waiting to be served, she noticed that none of the beer line-up was aimed at women. So she decided to do something about it and gathering a team of six. “I found a designer, financial person, sales, etc, by selling equity for shares,” she says.

As you may expect, there was no shortage of market testers at university, and in August last year the first bottles made it into local Midland supermarkets. “That month, we outsold Newcastle Brown Ale, so we knew we were on to something,” Easton says. “I thought it would take on the 18 to 24-year-old market, so my biggest surprise is that it has been a hit with the older generation, too.”

Easton was most concerned that the beer would be as free as possible from chemicals. “The low ABV [4 per cent] of my beer is a good alternative to high-ABV, chemical-ridden drinks.” What she wasn’t expecting was to register the drink as healthy. “When I registered my copyright and trademarks, I was fascinated to discover that beer was not in the ‘alcoholic drinks’ section, but in the ‘health drinks and cordial’ part. The principle is that good, pure ale is a great social drink that in moderate measures can be beneficial to health and help to relieve stress levels.” With sales for March outnumbering sales for the whole of the previous year, and talks with supermarket chain Morrisons going ahead, Easton feels confident that her student days will not end in unemployment.

Indeed, the only possible fly in the ointment may come from an unexpected source. Delegates at the National Union of Students annual conference in Blackpool last month voted to set a minimum price on alcohol in student unions, one of the last bastions of cheap beer.

Is Easton worried? “No. At £1.19 a bottle, my beer is classy, sophisticated and stylish,” she says.

Let’s hope that the beer can find enough equally classy and sophisticated women to agree.

* Have your say

"Easton was most concerned that the beer would be as free as possible from chemicals. “The low ABV [4 per cent] of my beer is a good alternative to high-ABV, chemical-ridden drinks.”"

I was getting excited about trying a chemical-free beer, but then I realized that such a thing is an impossibility!

Ian, Bluffton, United States

Having tasted Harry's Beer, and managed to maintain my waistline, I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone. She's an inspiration to all young women and I wish her all the success in the future.

Victoria Jones, Newcastle,

I have to say being a cider drinker I have no problem drinking out of a pint glass in a pub, I do like fruit beers as an alternative, I won't though drink any drink that is green tea flavoured unless it is actually green tea...feminine beer sounds horrid and somehow wrong...

Emma, Cambridge,

For the same reason they don't eat Yorkie...It's not for girls!

Brian, Oxford,

If taste is one of the main factors putting women off, why not just drink Belgian fruit beers? Fruili is available in many more mainstream pubs, as well as more specialist pubs like the Dovetail in Clerkenwell. Why does a "beer cocktail" need to be invented instead?

Siobhan, Hackney, London,

A cold Blue Moon is very refreshing on a hot day. I tend to like witbieren and other less "hoppy" beers, but quite a few of my women friends love Guinness (which tastes like liquified tree bark to me). The 'beer is not a ladylike drink' mentality is rare in the German-settled American Midwest.

Mmm, beer., Cincinnati, USA

Don't want women to get a taste for beer. The pub is still one of the few places left where you can escape from the likes of Janet Street Porter.

Chris West, Córdoba, Spain

I love a good pint of Guiness. There are times when only a Guiness would do. I am sure it has been a marketing gimmick to promote beer as a 'guy's drink'. And now to undo that, they are coming up with 'feminine' versions of the drink to please the ladies. So what's next? A 'a guy-friendly wine'?

Thara Visvanathan, Chennai, India

Street-Porter. Sounds like an Olde-English surname for one who sells beer on the streets.

digby snetteron, timbuktu,

Korean women will choose to drink beer almost as much as men. Of course its a tasteless fizzy lager - although quite strong, but nethertheless it is not seen as just a male orientated drink. Clearly doesn't effect their waistlines either!

Tim, Seoul, Korea

I avoid beer unless it's a boiling hot day and I am hungry as it makes me feel bloated and horrible. It is also calorie dense, 200cals a pint. I also do not like the taste. If I do have a beer, it's a fruit beer and if that is not available I'll have a pear cider (not Magner's!) I stick to g&t's.

Ashlee, London,

I'm normaly a wine drinker but there are occasions where nothing beats a nice glass or even bottle of beer. Likewise I sometimes go to the football stadium in Frankfurt and although I would never dream of drinking apple wine (cider) at home, when I'm at the football, I love it.

Caterine, Hofheim, Germany

As a 19 year old ''young woman'' I would never choose beer when i'm out socialising, it would make me feel very bloated which isn't the feeling you want when you want to have a good time. The taste is a little heavy for my liking. I would much prefer vodka and a light mixer such as Lime or Diet Coke

Judith, Belfast, Northern Ireland

This is ridiculous. I love a pint of real ale and have never gotten weird looks over it. I don't down them every day, maybe one or two on a weekend, and I still manage to stay trim and healthy. Beer doesn't make you fat - eating more calories than you burn off makes you fat.

Erika, Shropshire,

I do not drink beer However, when l lived in Germany there was a wonderful beer based drink Berliner weiss Beer served in a huge glass ( a brandy glass ?) therefore aesthetically pleasing with a strawberry or raspberry shot in the base and served with a straw It was refreshing & feminine

carole cooper, norwich norfolk, UK

Adam, as a successful weight-loser, I can tell you that the view that excercise is a solution to excess weight is misguided. It takes one hour on a rowing machine to offset one low-calorie meal. Weight control is more than 90% about controlling calorie input, rather than expenditure.

Chris, London, UK

While I do drink beer, I do not like drinking pints, I find the glasses unwieldy & inelegant, & most halves aren't any better.
Why can't more pubs serve beer in stemmed third glasses? This is a far more sensible amount in terms of volume, & a much more elegant vessel

Sophie CB, London,

Actually, I just don't like it. And it's expensive. Go ahead, guys - I'll stick with the lime soda.

Helen, Cheltenham, Glos.

What a horrible, horrible generalisation.

Tony, Islington, London, UK

So women will drink beer if you change the colour, taste, sweetness and packaging so that it is indistinguishable from an alcopop. And that's considered a victory? Sounds more like drenching broccoli in golden syrup, frying it in batter and then boasting about how your kids now "love vegetables"!

Claire, London,

Beer doesn't make you fat Tom. Lack of activity makes you fat. If people like yourself and the ever endearing Janet Street Porter don't like it then fine. Pub landlords, keep cultivating those atmospheres that these people seem to hate.

Adam, London,

As a woman who has been drinking beer (in pints) for nearly 30 years I am bemused by the introduction of 'female friendly' beers. What's wrong with women drinking the beers that are already out there? How many have ever tried it?Perhaps the brewers could tempt more women by offering a discount!

Sarah Scott, Cobham,

Tom Welsh - rubbish.I like my bitter and at 62 weigh 11st11lbs,about 7lb less than when I married at 21. Reason? Exercise,its quite simple.Wine will make you fat,if you don't burn it off! My wife is great to take to a pub(shame there are none here) because she loves bitter too.

Brian Wildey, Fleurance, France

Phil are you presuming to tell your gf what she can drink? I know it's just a one liner comment across the internet, but it makes you sound really patronising.

George, London, England

These days a lot of women are drinking far more wine than is good for them. Learning to enjoy a great real ale (eg. Coniston Bluebird) would be beneficial for both physical and mental health.

Clare Thompson, Lancaster,

In Belgium women drink beer a lot, but our beers are smaller in volume and served in attractive glass chalices. The men also don't measure a good night out in terms of how many pints of beer they drink - beer is just not thought of in that way.

David, Gent, Belgium

The reason women won't drink beer is not just because of taste but mainly because of perception. I will happily drink an Export at home but wouldn't dream of doing so in bar - v.unladylike.

As for adding peach / green tea to make it palatable... gender sterotyping is alive and well at Coors then

Sue, London,

I lived in Belgium for 3 years. It's perfectly normal for Belgian women to drink beer, it's a strange (British) idea that one drink is only for one sex. It's not even as if (British) beer has a particularly high alcohol content

M Smith, Reading, UK

Four words. Beer Makes You Fat.

Tom Welsh, Basingstoke,

Traditional English beer is bitter - it has always been that way due to natural preservatives added (thank-you UK brewers). "Enjoying" this flavour requires commitment, time and considerable practice. But it is worth it Ms S-P.Now then,bad pubs,you have a valid point,you need to be more selective.

steveh, Halesworth, Suffolk, England

I dont fancy my Girlfriend getting a beer belly!! She can stick to the Cosmopolitans

Phil, Preston, United Kingdom

I find this just as patronising as 'a glass of dry white wine for the little lady'. Women, break your chains - go to a good real ale pub like the Fat Cat in Norwich or Market Porter in Borough Market, and try different styles till you find what you like. Not what a marketer wants you to drink!

ned ludd, Norwich,

通常认为啤酒是男人的饮料。Emma Mahony赞成这一点，但她试尝过专门为女人制作的酿酒——新的啤酒。

珍妮街波特正在撬她的紫色高跟鞋，坐在一张桌子呻吟新“女性友好”的啤酒。 “我讨厌一切啤酒文化， ”她鲤鱼。

我讨厌的气味啤酒，我恨男人的啤酒胆量，我恨所有的垃圾，它的啤酒。 “她停顿只把她的培训和传唤新的硫酸。 "你知道四分之一的酒店要倒闭，他们应该倒闭因为他们是血腥的废话！”

没错，杰尼。关于英国女士不能喝啤酒原因的平衡讨论已经有了一个开始。我忍不住思考法国妇女们是否讨论喝啤酒，讨论可能有所提高。但是除夕项目，一个鼓励更多女士试着喝啤酒的新活动，的确已经有了些方法：街波特不单单是她反感的一跳。

仅仅13%英国妇女喝啤酒超过其他饮料，而大陆却有40%的妇女这样做。

英国10家有花园的酒家

这是马里兰州的喜忧参半的伙伴关系Kristy McCready的观点，他想改变上百亿英镑的活动。它不是鼓励回转到90年代的妇女文化，而是尝试帮助啤酒摆脱其极大多数的男人形象。

“我们正鼓励女人有一个机会。”她说，“我们想听女人说她们想要什么，了解她们想要什么，然后讲这种吃牌贸易。我们想改变啤酒的商界。”

那么他们反对什么？对，一开始有个很大的问题：50%赞成首创精神的女人抱怨喝啤酒可能增加她们的体重。其次，多于40% 的女人说这则广告不吸引人，还有人认为喝啤酒具有“男人味”，在任何人都适应这种口味前，已经有人明显反对你。

喜忧参半伙伴关系用许多研究反对这种对体重的争论，包括“饮酒方式与身体块状标志和腰臀周长之间的关系。”它暗示假如你一直每天适度地喝啤酒，你将很少经历肥胖这种苦难，将比“消费方式仅仅是偶尔尝一尝的人瘦”。

研究表明这种肥胖危机低于30%，因为与2~4天相反这些消费超过一星期七天。

对于许多争论，酒馆老板Allegra McEvedy，健康快食联合集团合作开发人，赞成“多样式”，赞成那一点女人应该克服自己的嗜好以品尝不同酒的最好口味。

McEvedy 喜欢喝Guinness，感觉保持喝一定量的酒十分舒服。有关啤酒的陈规使我感到烦恼，让我支持它。它是一种有魔术般吸引力的饮料，但它许多重要方面是口味和环境。冬天我喜欢喝萨格里什啤酒, 伦敦的骄傲, 吉尼斯纪录，或者毁灭酒吧啤酒。所有这些地方都有惊人的口味——就像一杯酒。

McEvedy也十分赞成用啤酒做饭。“例如，一开始仅仅试着在盒子中放一瓶伦敦的骄傲，”她说。她今天的兴趣在于陪审团正品尝的“女士友好”酒。夏天过后啤酒厂将推出的品酒会在全国各地。

我很抱歉说这种啤酒不可口，我希望在库尔斯发展起来把英国作为第一市场市场和尚未命名市场的清啤酒，由于星期天早晨所有镇中心清洁工再也不能看到曙光。我喜欢“龙牌水果和绿茶”，它看起来像柠檬，尝起来酒味不浓。

同样瓦斯和困难的饮料是“啤酒鸡尾酒与精英渔业和酸果蔓汁” ，玫瑰的Kasteel葡萄园是一个令人失望的替代任何中间路线的桃红葡萄酒。正如我未决定准备离开，希望的萌芽在哈瑞啤酒的形式下破土而出。哈瑞.以斯顿，20岁，一名辛堡大学的学生，他发明了这种酒，他已用柑橘片特别为女士创造出一种新酒。

“当我16或17岁准备外出时，我过去一向喝啤酒，但因为糖它们使我感觉难受。所以我改变了许多。”一天在一家酒吧内闲逛等待接待，她注意到没有啤酒台的目标是女人。所以她聚集了一个6人小组决定做些有关酒的事。“通过平等分享利润，我以前找到设计者、经纪人、销售人等等。”她说。

如你所愿，在大学市场监测员不短缺，第一批酒使它送入本地中土超市。“那个月我们外卖纽卡斯尔布朗啤酒，所以我们知道我们要继续做些事。”以斯顿说，“我过去认为它将揽下18～24年市场，所以我最吃惊的是它也受到上一代的打击。”

以斯顿最关心的是啤酒可能不含有化学品。相对于高含量ABV、隐藏化学物的饮料，我的啤酒含量低（4%）是一种好的选择。她过去一直不这种饮料视为健康物。“当我登记我的复制品和商标时，我曾吃惊地发现酒不属于‘酒精饮料’范围，但属于‘健康饮料和香酒’这一类。这则真理好，纯酒是一种宝贵的社会饮料，它在一定程度上对健康有利，对消除紧张程度有帮助。”随着3月的销售量超过去年整整一年的销售量，提前与超市连锁的毛瑞森讨论，令以斯顿感到自信的是她的学生生活将不会在未被雇佣中结束。

实际上仅仅在软膏中的飞跃可能来自难以想象的资源。在黑波，上个月学生民族协会年会议的代表投票确定学生协会酒精的最低价，一种便宜酒的最后价格。

以斯顿担心吗？“我的酒号一点一九英镑一瓶，优雅，成熟和时尚。”她说。

我们希望这种酒能同样找到优雅和成熟的女士来赞成。

天气热时一杯冰凉可口的蓝月亮令人心爽神怡。我倾向于威特比尔，对其他令人嗜好的酒也感兴趣。但我的许多女朋友喜欢盖尼斯。（对我来说，它尝起来像液化的树干。）“啤酒不是女性所喜欢的饮料”的意识在德国人居住的美国中西部地区十分罕见。

当我外出搞社会活动，作为19岁“年轻女人”我绝不选择酒，当你想拥有一段好时光时，它让我感觉非常恼怒，因为这不是你想要的感觉。根据我的爱好，这种味道有点重。我比较喜欢沃卡和轻的莱姆或库克点心混合物。

朱迪，贝尔法斯特，北爱尔兰
