We've had whats your favourite, now we want the bad ones.

Was in the New Inn in Ossy the other night, got a pint of bitter - Lees
Awful stuff, didn't know if I had to drink it or wear it, tasted scented and smelt awful, had two sips and had to take it back, had a quiet word with the landlady and she changed it for me, didn't taste the new one, just smelt at it and give it her back - can't drink that S****, she said its only £1.50 a pint :eek:
So does that mean I have to drink it then, quite cheap as aftershave but I aint wearing it or drinking it, swap it for something else and I'll pay the difference, got a pint of Worthingtons, lot better :D
See the other being poured down the sink, sad sight seeing any beer being thrown away but I enjoyed watching that one go :D
If your in Ossy just try a pint - better make it an half cause you'll not drink it
 
i can honestly say, ive NEVER had a bad pint in my whole life.......seen as i only drink halves :D
 
Had a few over the years,

one night went in the George when Jimmy was there, ordered a pint, didn't even taste it, It was like smelling the vinegar bottle, handed it back, Jimmy said, "The CAMRA guys are all drnking it and loving it"

I said taste it then, he smelt it and gave me something new, so much for CAMRA expertise then............
 
Theres no such thing about bad beer, however some are better than others. Its like women, some are prettier than others.
 
Less,Beniepete and me went to the Bees knees a few weeks ago got what was supposed to be 2 pints of john smiths and a pint of fosters we took 3 mouthfuls put it down and walked out it was disgusting and its not known for any of us to leave beer.
 
Think he worst I ever had was Fremlins in Kent, with Courage (you need it to drink it) coming a close second, in fact there are only two things in life I hate that's bad bear and cheeky kids, which is what I keep telling my 40 year old Daughter when she gets a bit lippy:D
 
once had a pint of Bollards in Norwich disgusting, needless to say, we named it summat else, :D agree with jaysay about "Courage" ya sure needed it to sup that crap.
 
Unless you dont actually like the beer theres 4 ways you can get a bad pint:

1. Its a bad barrell from the brewery
2. The lines havent been cleaned
3. There is still a bit of glass wash in the glass
4. If you have eaten anything with strong onions or garlic it can affect the taste.

Me & my brother went in New Inn on New Years Eve he got a pint of Coors, took 2 sips if it and ran to the toilets to throw up, he said it was disgusting. You could tell because it looked completely flat in the glass. He changed it to Grolsch and that wasnt much better, so he went onto bottles of Bud. I drink cider and have never ever had a good pint of it in the Bees Knees, its well known for it.
 
an old alkie i knew always used to say- Theres no such thing as a bad pint........just some better than others.:D:D:D:D
 
most of the pubs that sell bad ale are the ones thatsell the cheap stuff thats nearly out of date, just because its full a folk it doesunt mean the ales good
 
My mates brother used to have a pub in Benenden Kent, King George the forth I think it was. I was actually working in the village shop with shopfitters and we called in for a drink after work just to say hello, I introduced myself and asked for a pint of Bitter, Trevor looked at me and just said, try Guinness, Lancashire Lads won't be able to stomach this beer:D
 
Well got to Rochdale today, went in the pub, guess who's ale it was - yeah J W Lees :mad:
I didn't risk it :D
