Are there any "flat beer" styles that are served in Europe? I have drank lots of different styles and lots of different beers in Europe and have never come across a flat style(including cask). I mentioned cask ale since I believe that is the only beer that the guy could possibly be mentioning since it is not pressured with bottled co2. By the way, I am just critiquing what the guy in the interview said. Watch the video in the first post from 1:32-1:42 to see what I mean.
There is flat lambic sold but it's definitely a rare breed. "Flat" in the sense cask ale has lower carbonation isn't as obscure. There are other parts of Europe where you can find beers naturally carbonated in kegs and served by gravity and even occasionally with a beer engine. If you've never had lagers served out of a gravity keg, you're missing out.
