"cackling old local geezers eyeing up the ladies"... why didn't you come and say hello Tris?
Wow, scandalous mark-up, at their own outlet!
Stupidly didn't notice the price when tapping for a pint of Wild River at Herne Hill's Half Moon, just seen bank a/c, £6.35!!
If I'd noticed I would have told them to keep it, and it was off, had to...
When we get to that extreme or specialist end of the spectrum I usually try to assimilate the price to what a btl of wine might be, so a decent shiraz for ~£20, in a pub, not bad...
I think I was paying ~£4.40 last week, on production of the magic card...
Excellent, though did he suggest that to be a related one-off, or could it have been a regular occurrence..?
Wow, surprised they would be selling that by the pint(?) but I suppose, if we think of a 13% wine, a bottle for £15 would be very reasonable in a pub, and an absolute steal in a restaurant...
Though a vast difference in alcohol content - and how anything at 67% could qualify as 'beer', I just don't know.
I saw something on my msn homepage the other day mentioning that Craft Beer Co, Brixton were selling a bottle of Imperial something for £47...
Here it is......
I've never warmed to the Pint Shop in Cambridge but yesterday's visit will be my last. A ludicrous mix of sizes (2 thirds, but no one third option, but can convert to halves) meant I somehow...
I guess the pub should be reclassified as 'open' then..? (Currently marked closed)
Three pints of Darkstar Hophead in The Harp, at £1.76pp, to celebrate Fullers 176years brewing (apparently). Worth registering for the voucher and the train (now free) up to town.
I had asked about...
Thanks chaps, I shall have another look at those...
Slightly off thread, but do we have any whisky aficionados here?
I wanted a 60yr-old Speyside for a gift, but that seems to run into £thousands. I found a 30yr-old at ~£350, iirc, still expensive...
Can't get close to £36(!) but £5.15 for a very underwhelming TEA here yesterday. Alone, I'd have walked...
Counterbalanced by a with-voucher £1.99 Jaipur at the Wibbas Down
W..T..F....??
Wow! I would be spinning on my heel and saying "I'll tell you what, you can keep that..."
Staggering!!
Or £515 for one bottle of the original 1997 vintage..!

So John, the price was..?
Ooh, that'd be good. It's been a while since the demise of the Stand-Up Inn at nearby Lindfield, and Haywards Heath could do with a decent pub.
