Lot of micro pubs/breweries are doing takeaway or delivery service. Maybe the big chains could do that, at least they'd get something for the beer, better than throwing it away.

In that case, I am sure we will soon see pictures of Boris, Stanley, and Tim Martin enjoying a pint in a re-opened Weatherspoons.

I was thinking Tim Martin will find a way to flog it!

Very good point Juce

I fell sorry for you Wetherspoons boys. Flat beer for months!

I was ashley looking forward to a pint at the pub but you have made me think. I guess it won’t be a pint!

Good call juice, left field thinking. Shame the Government can’t think like that!

Cask conditioned beer will be like vinegar after about three weeks, even less if the boozer has turned their cellar cooling off to cut leccy bill.

Would imagine a lot already has gone for a burton instead of from it.

My London boozer is god awful. I remember sending two different beers back and having to drink Guinness on one visit.

I seriously fear for Wetherspoon punters you know they will be drinking current stocks at £1.29 a pint until it runs out. I agree that Sarsons might taste better and will have the added benefit of a secure fart in the morning as opposed to the vinegar beer shart.....you know what I am talking about!
