Body: <p>My friend ordered a Wells Banana Bread Beer and to all three of us the beer tasted flat (carbonation-wise). She brought the beer to the bartender, who replied that that's just how that beer is. Is it true that some beers are meant to be served flat? Why? (What does it do for the taste?)</p>

Comments.Text: Indeed a duplicate. That's what happens when you drink and post. As @JasonMcLaughlin points out, cask conditioned beers do not force carbonation, and the Wells Banana Bread Beer is indeed a "draught seasonal cask beer."

  Yes, some beers have more carbonation than others. I've yet to drink one that is 100% flat but some are pretty close. I couldn't tell you exactly what it does for any beer - the brewer simply decided that it was a good fit for this beer.
