@AleOfATime NZ famously got ours forest brewery in 1990...

@annikakes You should have seen The Crown and Badger in the early 2000s back before it got a gastropup face-lift. Genuinely a cozy little boozer with worn wood furniture and sticky carpet.

Drink selection wasn't much, but I remember Macs Black, Kilkenney and Tennets on tap.

@southstarbrew I may have beef with Anglophones and their linguistic and culinary abuse of one of my country's national dishes.

@AleOfATime If I understand it, his claim is: "I own a worthless beer IP, that the future British once once tasted, but that was before I was actually involved."

Very weird flex my dude.

@Morehu I was absolutely gutted when Gently want renewed, then I found out Max Landis is a real PoS.

@Morehu Midday sewing shops or spotlight will have them.

@NZMorningReport How dare they! Anyway, I'm off to go Google the original print cover of 'And Then There Were None' for no particular reason...

[The Swiss Assassin @The_Bottleneck]

@AleOfATime Holy shit! When I opened that link I expected the usual corporate malfeasance. I was not prepared for that. Literally every sentence is weirder and more unhinged than the last.

@byroncclark "he talks about all these people nobody has ever heard of" he says, while linking to Stuff articles written about them.

@RawiriTaonui Eagle Brewing stopped existing a year and a half before that photo was taken. They're drinking manky, old, oxidised beer presumably to own the libs?

@southstarbrew I miss DAB (I know it's German, not Czech). I used to get it at our local pack n save.

@AleOfATime Therefore hold them close: each 1 star review represents a dick head you won't have to deal with again and (hopefully) insurance against future dick heads.

2/2

[The Swiss Assassin @The_Bottleneck]

@AleOfATime If I could share some insight from running a bar:

The only people who leave 1 star reviews are dick heads. Likewise the only people who listen to 1 star reviews are also dick heads.

1/2

@southstarbrew It's like when guys start posting low-key misogynistic memes in homebred forums.

Listen mate, I'm here because I have a question about water profiles, not to hear how much you hate your wife/she hates your drinking problem.

[The Swiss Assassin @The_Bottleneck]

@byroncclark The irony of posting us sort of thing on Twitter slides right past these types of people, doesn't it.

[The Swiss Assassin @The_Bottleneck]

@AleOfATime I will and I will (tomorrow, of to bed now).
