| Why does anyone expecting 'real' lager (whatever that is) go out of their way to visit a pub that has set it's stall out as an ale pub since time immemorial? After all, everywhere nowadays is awash with these minimalist trendy lager bars filled with pseudo intellectual trendies and poseurs, whereas pubs like the Brewers Pride are an endangered species. We weirdie beardies need these dens preserving for consumption of our beloved pig vomit. How would you like it if your lager vomitorium was invaded by anarak beardies,trainspotters and beer tickers ! No - places like this are really doing you a favour by keeping us in one place. Don't worry, we will all die out eventually, and your beloved global brand lagers will rule. Anyway, nice to see that the place hasn't gone bistro pub, despite earlier predictions of doom. minesawhitelion - 23 Nov 2008 11:08 |
| Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is Alpine lager. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza. Mind you I only drink Alpine lager to make other people seem more interesting, you will know what I mean if you have met my wife, Tina. Along time ago my father said to me "Son, a woman is like a lager. They smell good, they look good, you'd step over your own mother just to get one! But you can't stop at one. You want to drink another woman!” He was right, it was a woman who drove me to drink and I never got the chance to thank her. After a good night out an “Irish Coffee” is the perfect breakfast because it contains all four of the essential food groups:- fat, sugar, caffeine and alcohol. I feel sorry for all those people who don't drink. They wake up in the morning and that's the best they're going to feel all day. After coming home from the pub drunk the other night I came home to find my mother in law was visiting. The old witch said to me “Russell, if you were my husband, I'd poison your tea!” After thinking for a short while I replied and said. “Yes and if you were my wife, I would drink it!” I don’t really get on with her too well as you can probably tell. I once saw six men punching and kicking my mother-in-law. The wife said; “Aren't you going to help?” I said; “No, six should be enough!” One final thing, take a tip from me never accept a drink from a urologist! Russell_Sprout - 9 Nov 2008 01:03 |
| The pub is about 10 minutes walk down Horbury Road (there is a bus service going to the bottom). Well worth seeking out. I very much enjoyed my visit. BruceMasters - 25 Oct 2008 15:04 |
| This is a public house is one that specializes in "real ales" and has forgotten that some menbers of the public like to drink "real lagers." What has happened to the free choice of the individual customer? Have I not right to buy what I want to buy and not what the landlord wants to sell me, at a vastly inflated price. I don't want to drink something that smells like the vomit of pigs! Russell_Sprout - 9 Oct 2008 22:17 |
| I too have been a regular for almost as long as I've been legally allowed to drink and I don't know what all the fuss is about! Brewers is one of the best pubs for miles. The lounge has been revamped (not before time!) and there's now chef prepared food which loads of folk have said is superb. As far as I can tell the food times are not interfering with drinkers, the ale is still the best locally and the price which is generally between £2.15 and £2.30 a pint makes it amongst the cheapest around. As for the management, well, I agree with Mr SupOwtMe, Sal and John seem to me to be doing a great job. Put it this way; how many pubs do you know thesedays that are open all day everyday and usually very busy. Anyway, need a beer now; might try all nine just to make sure they're all still ok!!!
