bgoefc Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Daughter bought us some tickets for this as a xmas present via Beer and Food festival. Absolute dogshit and a complete rip off. £43 for two large steins and and a bottle of something they called white wine that came in a plastic decanter. Left after 30 mins.

bgoefc Posted October 20, 2016 Author Share Posted October 20, 2016 Is it right that there's only 1 beer available?? Aye. Its also the worse German beer I've ever tasted. Horrible after taste like a wheat beer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Spider Posted October 20, 2016 Site Supporter Share Posted October 20, 2016 Aye. Its also the worse German beer I've ever tasted. Horrible after taste like a wheat beer. Mate who went last night said it was shite. £6 a pint and about as authentically German as being in a tent on Manchester. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going abroad makes me realise how naff our beer is etc. Manchester for example is a joke for drinking. Thinking it's trendy London in the centre with its prices when in fact it's just a bit shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at that place just down the road from Akbars the other day near MOSI, the pub with the big outside seating area. Over £10 for a Heineken and white wine. And the walls were full of United shit. One of the best pubs in Manchester is the Abercrombie but that looks like it's gonnna be demolished to make way for Nevilles and Giggs' little scheme.

Smiley Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Many of the pubs in Manchester are more expensive than London now. Maybe that's a positive thing about Manchester. Surpassing the capital. Which in fairness has no soul and is awful for atmosphere in the evenings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enzo gambaro Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 This thread set off with some ingrate moaning about a shit Christmas present and then quickly became a grumble about the price of ale before turning into a love-in about pricy Belgian ale that tastes like milk shake. Ace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Crombie is ace; it's my work's local and Mile treats us really well however.... It's also expensive - £4.50+ for a lager, and it's full of Utd stuff too so it matches your critique above to be fair. It's still my favourite place in Manc. They are still fighting the Neville development and it's not over yet, but they'll not win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
