Fullers Pubs - Loyalty Card Scheme

[Millay]

I wondered if anyone else has come across this. I found it at the Doric Arch Euston, which thankfully is one of the few Fullers pubs where they allow guest beers. I was told that a small number of Fullers pubs are running the same thing, not sure if it is restricted to London.

The deal is a buy 8 get one free which largely just brings the price down to what other pubs charge. You can only use the card in the pub that issues it and for some strange reason you have to declare the name of the beer on the card and you only get it stamped when you buy that beer. Thankfully the Doric Arch has as one of it’s regulars York’s Centurion’s Ghost which is one of my favourites. I’m well on my way to my second free pint which probably explains why I’ve not posted on the forums much this week, I think this is the first night I’ve got home sober.

Fullers are one of my least favourite, sorry to say Millay, so i dont think i will qualify!

Millay keep drinking it tastes better when it is free,and i cannot blame you going home not sober.

I remember reading that my local brewery Ossett and Fullers had done a reciprocal beer arrangement. Has that dried up then? I still see Pride, ESB and HSB in my Ossett owned local.

If you're used to paying London prices, a trip to the north will see you drinking four pints and getting the fifth one free, card or no card!

Or drink in a Sam Smiths pub in the north and it's buy one get one free!

Yes! Even better (assuming you can (a) drink Sam's, (b) don't mind its ice cold temperature).

I am just planning a Northern trip for March, although to the other side of the Pennines I'm afraid, Manchester. Hoping that Grailhuner may join me on the way back from Edinburgh where he's staying the previous week. Actually I might fly to Edinburgh myself for a couple of days and get the train down to Manchester. I feel another Blog coming on Does PG have a blog facility?

Maybe this is back on, the Doric Arch in Euston put Ossett Big Red on tonight and were pushing it quite heavily.

For any locals they have also got a loyalty card scheme going again, buy 7 get the 8th free.

I popped into The Ship & Bell, Horndean a few days back, found they operate the Fuller's loyalty scheme, which is good as the HSB is very good there, as it should be as it is next to the old Gales Brewery and if one could not get a decent pint of Horndean Special Bitter in the birthplace of it then it would be a very sad day

It does indeed taste better when it's free, I picked up my second free pint last night.

I asked about other pubs and was told that the scheme was available to all pubs but as the cost is paid for by the pub and not Fullers not many have taken the option up. With the Doric Arch being more of a drinkers pub that some of the mainstream Fullers outlets I guess they felt it was worth it. Certainly it was packed last night.
