Ah pre 80's when you had a pint of Boddies and the bottom didn't fall out of your world, the world fell out off your bottom.
That's a bloody good shout. Mother in law lives in Bruges and we visit several times a year. Always pop into De Garre. Outstanding place.
Especially in the Vic Church Rd St Annes!
That was Jennings.
Is Bods crap everywhere now then? Not had a pint in ages, last one was The Shovels in Hambleton on a work thing, it was decent.On the Boddingtons theme…
What if the delicious beer you’ve committed to for the rest of your life suddenly becomes crap?
Or disappear completely? Like Hartleys did. Subsumed by a “brewery” like Robinsons.
Sorry. I know the op was meant to be light hearted but I’ve known too many good beers disappear forever
All around is tourism yet I popped in de Garre with my step-son and all was quiet. A couple of local women having a drink with their shopping bags. Bliss.
Herts, me and you could have a bloody good sesh. Down in London for the Prem match against West Ham, me and mates did a few pubs in the Borough area. One of those was a Harvey's pub called the royal Oak. An excellent pint!
Yuk! Not for me. Always bypassed the Saddle for the Boars Head in the 70's and 80's.
You an ale man 20s? If so, what?
Absolutely!
going back to the 70's and early 80's Bods, Tetleys and Thwaites were always a good pint. Must admit liked Matthew Brown too. Couldn't stand Higsons and all the other big breweries stuff. Now, I'm a regular visitor to Cask and always have the various blondes they do in there. Otherwise like Wainwrights and Black Sheep. As said earlier tend to avoid the darker beers as they are too strong and I can't drink anywhere near as I could. Also , generally speaking they are just not to my taste. Find a lot of them a bit sweet.
