I've worked in both and there are some differences.
In the US I can only remember one time beer was sactioned at lunch; we just finished a project and got signoff that morning.
In the UK, we occationally had a pint on Friday, but then again we were usually only going back to work to do one final check of email and voice mail before going back to London. If you had to stay past 3 or so on Friday, you waited until you were on the train home to begin drinking.
