Beer, revisited

[COYBL25]

Yep, that's the one.

They put a sign in the window at one point saying they'd only sell Black Rat in halves cos of the mess students were getting into.

There used to be quite a few pubs in Liverpool back in the day, that wouldn`t serve Snake Bite, for very similar reasons.

The hooligans version, was a Special Brew over a Scrumpy Jack.

If you saw anyone drinking one of these, it`d be time to down your drink and get out as soon as possible lol

I think with scrumpy the bigger concern for publiccans was moving on first years who'd collapsed outside your pub having shat their trousers.

you’re not wrong . I also remember the bloke who had the 5 ways , can’t remember his name , wouldn’t serve Stella because he heard it call it wife-beater

Has anyone been in the refurbed beehive yet ? The frontage looks horrific but inside didn’t look too bad , not made it in yet .

Went to the White Lion in West Kirby yesterday. Five ales on, including this which I've never had before, very nice :

Also had a couple from Purple Moose, forgotten the name, some Welsh gubbins. They have a nice beer garden, very civilised. Outrageously priced crisps.

Another lovely dunkel to accompany this afternoon's Bundesliga action.





Although, to paraphrase Father Ted, they're all lovely dunkels.

And making my point nicely, anoth-ur:

Anybody been recently ?

Didn't get a picture, but I tried a Cucumber/HoneyDew Melon Gose and it was simply awesome. The cucumber accents the rest of the beer in such a way that...

And just round the corner is Bruhaha, on the edge of Windmill Hill City Farm. Some nice rock steady and jungle on the speakers, an excellent 7% dopplebock and peanut butter pretzels.

There's a danger I'll be spending the night here...

Hot damn, between the music, beer, and snacks, this honestly sounds heaven-like.

Had these today, both tasty but pleasantly surprised by the pale ale.

Bought a kev of Camden Hells for the pump today. It’s not bad. Didn’t finish work till 2:30 last night so few pints of that has me feeling like elvis.
