Reasons for going to pubs
I mentioned a couple of these in another thread:
Trying out new beers that haven't been available anywhere else...
Or that have been tried in bottle or can but there's a possibilty they could be better in cask or keg.
Drinking well remembered beers that aren't available in the same quality in bottles or cans.
Meeting friends or family for a chat without having to put your house in order first.
Bumping into people you don't know, or haven't seen for a long time.
Being acknowledged by staff or regulars as someone they recognise even though neither of you particularly wants to start a conversation.
Appreciation of the architecture or ancient features of a pub building or interior.
