I image water, milk, beer, and wine would have been available, and the beer could have been Guinness if they won the contract with White Star, but there was a lot of dark beer available - but no "lite" beer.. And to the horror of Americans, the beer would have been room temperature.

Traditional pub beer was cellar-temperature, cooler than room temperature.

There's an old expression/question: why do the Brits drink their beer warm? Answer: because Lucas makes the refrigerators. For guys who love old British cars, they all know that Lucas wiring was nothing but trouble. Due to the unreliability of Lucas electrical wiring, founder Joseph Lucas is often (lovingly or no so much) referred to as "The Prince of Darkness".

To be precise, British beer wasn't traditionally served *warm*, it was served at *room temperature*.

Or cellar temperature, which were on the average rather below what a modern American considers "warm".

It's not dark enough to be Guinness. Probably a porter.
