Seem to have canned it along with Hop House in this country. The Open Gate Pilsner they discontinued was great too!

It is given they’ve bought out this ‘Guinness coffee nitro brew’ in a can which I had last week. It was rank

I was tempted to try it but decided against it. Doesn't sound the most appealing

In Rhodes the local beer is called Zythos and it’s corking 

You wouldn’t naturally associate the Greeks with Beer, but they do a good job. 
 

But then again Ancient Greece set the tone for a lot of western civilisation so they’ve probably been brewing longer than anybody else.

All European med countries produce good beer apart from France. Italian beer is great so it’s weird they don’t have much of a pub/bar culture

[Guest Lako42]

Local pub (Man in Compass) £4.70 for a pint of lager. 

 

Game over for me, it's just ****ing ridiculous for a spit and sawdust local boozer.

Yeah strange - family orientated people in my experience (my mums Italian), more inclined to get together and sit and have a big meal as opposed to going to the pub. Also hate doing things to excess, apart from smoking, again in my experience.

Huge cut in alcohol duty needed at pubs needed, make up the shortfall by taxing supermarket booze - school mums swigging 4 bottles of Echo Falls a week are a bigger health hazard than having 3 or 4 pints.

Square Ball by North Brewing Co is insanely nice.

Probably had one too many last night.

Shame it's a collaboration with a Leeds United fanzine..

Yes this is good, it’s better than the other Leeds collab that they did. If you’re in Leeds and you like beer and dirty food, there’s a new burger place by the station called Meat Stack that has this in, as well as loads of other class beers, including Augustiner which is the only place in town that does that as fas as I’m aware.

Rare you see good German beers on tap. WEB has Ayinger in at the minute though

Had a Grape Ale last night. Not bad, different.

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

Jus been the Kirkstall Bridge for a Bad Kitty which was Susan, now in a gaff round the corner I'm intrigued by, a very local gaff but I like it. Wall to wall Leeds on the walls bar the odd but of wall space for the Old Firm cults but it's for...both sides? Very confusing imo

This was bottles and cans tbf, which is cool in itself because they’ve done it like a fast food bottle shop type place. So you go in, get your burger in a couple of minutes, eat, and you can carry your booze out with you and on to the next.

New craft beer festival in Lidl, picked up quite a few cans which sounded interesting.

[Guest Lako42]

Nitro stout in The Rock 

[grobyfox1990]

4 Guinness in Wembley spoons 

[Unabomber]

Went to Sommar on Wednesday and whilst it looks like a brothel inside the beer choice was amazing.

[RonnieTodger]

Longhorn in the Rutland & Derby 

[Bellend Sebastian]

Charnwood Brewery Vixen in Wyggeston House.

 

Lovely pint, nice pub but couldn't believe how quiet it was on a Friday night and town generally. 

 

I know there are still a lot of folk away,  money's tight and the effects of the pandemic are still being felt but the city centre really felt on its arse by about half 9
