I wasn't happy last night.

Sun Oct 28, 2012 1:31 pm

Of course the game was awesome but..

I made my way into town to join in the Halloween festivities. Dressed as normal man.

Heads to a bar. Missus asked me what I wanted to drink.

I asked her for a PINT of Tiger because that's all they sold. Not a bad beer either.


You should've seen my face when she brought back what appeared to be half a pint.

On recieving it it looked a bit bigger. So I checked the measure.


TWO THIRDS OF A PINT!!!! £3.70

'48 was right. This country is going to the dogs. :old: :old: :old:

I'm "on" about the price of beer and some pubs changing to the 2/3 pint glass.

Wouldnt matter to most of us on here CWAK we wouldnt drink in gay bars so we dont need to worry about the 2/3 pint glass.

Yeah would've if the queue weren't a nightmare and I wasn't dying for a "pint".

I think it's some kind of new initiative to stop people over drinking. Bollocks when they charge you pint prices though.

Are you sure it wasn't simply that they only sold it in bottles, but it's one of these places that don't let you have glass bottles so pour the bottles into plastic glasses?

I'm sure the bottles are about 2/3 of a pint (330ml bottle for example)

It was poured into a "glass" glass from a pump. That's why I had to let you know.

Where was this?

What kind of pub only sells Tiger, and serves it in 2/3 pint glasses??

A place called Kapu on Mill Lane. It's a Tiki bar.

Joined onto The Ladybird which is upstairs and sells actual pints.
