Default Sea Princess, what UK beers?

Hi
I am sailing on the Sea Princess this June and was wondering what UK
beers they sell on board.
As a bitter drinker I am worried that I will have to drink something
awful like bud or fosters for 2 weeks.
Thanks

Mentioning beer gave me a chuckle. I just arrived home from a cruise on the P&O Aurora and they had quite a range of beer on the
ship. Most of the passengers were from the UK, so the most popular beers were Boddingtons on tap and John Smiths in cans.

Funny thing was the John Smiths was made in Australia, the home of Fosters. ;-)

The P & O boat I went on had bottled pedigree at a very reasonable
price.
I don't expect I will be spoilt for choice, I may have to take a case
of spitfire/speckled hen or London Pride with me.

I some how think it will be aimed at the american market with
budweiser on the menu.

Miller, Coors, Becks, Grolsch , Fosters, and Dos Equis.
