Looking for a venue for a beer .

.where is everyone going ?

We’re in the Rockstone if anyone else is about

Feck, I’m down in The Encore now, waiting for the trains to get less busy.

I can categorically say that the most exciting thing that has ever happened at Brewdog, Southampton, was my cunt-laden rant I delivered loudly on the premises.

Fuck me. Five pounds per pint to sit in a fake fucked interior.

There’s surely an undercutting opportunity for the ruthless competitor. Buy places that are actually fucked to start with, save the money and pass the cost onto the consumers.

The crowning turd in the punchbowl is surely the location. For your five pounds per pint, you can wistfully stare into the middle distance, taking the immense views of the back of Southampton’s most dangerous kebab emporiums.

To be fair to Brewdog, we probably went at the wrong time. If we’d gone at night it would have been a lot more exciting. Stressed minimum wage workers chain smoking out the back, with the sound of drunken racial abuse from the city’s kebab hungry knuckledraggers providing the ambience.

Sorry I missed it this week (had to see family pre-match) but at least it sounds like I got lucky not listening to the above rant :lou_wink_2:

It was a fine rant - wouldn’t have disgraced a man twice pap’s age.

It was very curmudgeonly…

It was not. It was so edgy you could have fucking shaved with it.

I got a 24 year old in a tent to write it.

What sort of tent?

I was in one of those chrome and glass pub/bar/snackfood places the other Saturday night a couple of weekends ago in Durham. I had a look along the chrome taps…Lager, Lager, Lager, Lager, Lager, Lager, Lager, John Smiths. :lou_sad:

WTF…or more to the point…Who The Fuck!

What have you got in the cabinets I ask. Craft Beers

I’ll have a Bottle of “Sheep Shagger”…he pours it into a chilled glass and charges me 6 quid…my wife has a G&T. :lou_facepalm_2:

We leave soon after…can you not get a decent pint of Bitter in a city emporium anymore.

Sounds like the top end of town hasn’t changed in 30 years :lou_lol:

Was only last year in Berkshire when I was in a similar glass and chrome place and confronted by lager pumps only. My mate drinks bitter / ale and spotting none on display, I asked the 20-something bar maid: “do you have any bitter?”

“what’s bitter?” was the reply :roll_eyes:

Has anyone actually lived to be that old?

Yikes.

Tbh the special offer and Eric’s AA card discount mean that my Litre of Laughingbrew actually cost less than your bottle of Sheep Shagger.

Hipsters have a LOT to answer for. I blame Beltch and his remorseless marketing campaign for Spewdog
