    I've been in two and totally agree with you. If I had your perspicacity I could have saved myself a lot of money.

    You may be right, but how can you say its crap without first hand experience? I personally don't mind them and quite like the beer.

    I also like the beer quite a lot, although I don't rate their lager. I get Punk IPA, Elvis Juice and Mr President at reasonable prices from Tesco. I've a good idea about their pubs from pictures I've seen, reviews here and I also have a mate in Scotland who along with his son belong to some sort of club where you get discount. The most important factor is that I've seen pictures of their blackboard beer menu with the rip off prices and the stupid measures. I just don't want to know about places like that.

    That's fair enough.

    I recently broke my duck with Brewdog in a poncy cafe/bistro that only sold draught lager.Punk IPA:can't say I was overwhelmed-I didn't want to be in a situation where BD was the natural choice, and the unremitting hype predisposed me against it. Not bad in itself, I just preferred the bottle of Jaipur I'd drunk the night before. Also, you can buy it (BD) at the grotty Post Office, along with the gaspers and fizzy pop.
