Hey just some advice to anyone drinking here always check the sell by dates, Last week when in myself and a friend were served drinks that were 5 months out of date, Not only were all the bottles of this drink out of date but they put them back in the fridge about an hour later to sell to someone else.

So you would drink a drink that is 5 months out of date? I doubt very much they would put the dates on them for no reason, It was only my mate who noticed as there was all these things floating about the bottle and this white stuff was coming out the top off it. Not very tasty at all, Yeah they give us another bottle of some other stuff but at the end of the day they shouldn't be selling stuff that is 5 months out of date :)

did you know that in the US it is not mandatory to have a sell by date on beer?

Surely people who go in Weatherspoons and complain are getting a bit above their station?

It might of said use by i can't remember, But the beer was rotten and didn't taste right at all. Also the state of the glasses were rotten which looked like drink still in them along with hairs and stains, Not a nice experience at all :) I doubt very much i will be back again.

Thats how they sell the beer so cheap its usually close to sell by date. Beer is usually good good bit past sell by date. Some people are never happy.

Probably beer brought back from the coastal pubs/clubs etc that hadn't been
sold by the time they shut down for the winter. All the holiday camps are on
a sale or return basis. Then it is sold cheaply to the major Pubcos to sell cheap.

weatherspoons provide a fine service to society by providing a cheap day centre for alcoholics , the depraved and deprived so why be so pedantic to complain about sell by dates ? i dont believe the poster could believe weatherspoons is a real pub , they are a pastiche of a trad pub , peanuts and monkeys and all that jazz , dont make the same mistake again.

I wasn't aware that they bought drink close to the sell by date and then sold it on, I did often wonder though how they were able to sell drink so cheap, And the food they serve to isn't the best. I've not been in a weatherspoons that often. I would drink guinness quite a bit and found that didn't taste the best either a few months ago, Was suprised at how cheap they were selling it. Would rather just get my drink at home then head out and only buy a few. I knew of a place before that use to have half empty bottles of things like bud were they would fill the rest of with water then serve people who they knew had drunk a few to many would serve them to that person. They would let on they were taking the lid of the bottle to make it look like it had just been opened. Sneaky fks what some people are up to.
