  Was Angry Orchard the American cider?
  
  I was really impressed with the drinks offerings, by far the best in my town. Some of the spirits they do are quite rare to find in pubs as well.

  Yes.
  They have several varieties but I belive JD only stock this one atm

  I'm not sure, but I think 'real ale' is either legally defined or groups like CAMRA have criteria that mean they can 'officially' be classed as a real ale or not.
  
  'Craft beer' is currently a meaningless term in the UK, so it could be anything produced in any way, using any chemicals or ingredients.

  I believe in the U.S. there is an official definiton, but not in the UK. I am not entirely sure Brewdog get to be called 'craft beer' producers considering they are a huge multi-million pound company.
