I was told by a night club owner in Leicester Sq it started when Aids came about and the gays drank from bottles because nobdy knew for certain how aids could be transmitted and there was a thought it could be via glasses. Now been proved not so.

Rather than drink a dodgy pint in a strange pub, a bottle is surely a better bet? At least you know that the quality is guaranteed. And Budweiser really is a top selling brand: I'm a publican and sell case after case of the stuff. When I travel abroad I'm always going to opt for a bottle rather than buy a beer of indeterminate quality served in a possibly dirty glass ... (Not, of course, that this happens in my pub!)

The Park Crescent usually has piss weak beers on draught and as such if you want to taste anything you have to buy a bottle of Golden Glory or Fursty Ferret at the wonderful price of £4.20 a bottle. It comes to something when in a Hall and Woodhouse pub, the Hall and Woodhouse bottled beers are better than it's draught ales.

Drinking out of the bottle was something I sometimes did as a student, when in a club or bar rather than a pub because at that age image is as important or more than taste, but hopefully wasn't Bud. These days, draft ale is the first choice, but will look at the bottles if I don't fancy the ales available, or fancy something different before going home, or as a survival tactic if dragged into an establishment where I don't trust the staff to clean the lines. Those places seem to be getting rarer though with the decline in the pub trade, the badly run ones have often been first to go. If drinking from a bottle though, I'll always get a glass to pour it in, partly to avoid warming the beer grasping a bottle in my mitt, but mostly because half of the taste of food or drink is in the aroma and if you are drinking out of a narrow neck bottle you won't get the pleasant smell that a glass can capture and release to your nose with each sip. That wouldn't be a consideration to Bud drinkers though. Even Spoons are now doing some smart USA bottled ales; Lagunitas IPA and Rogue Amber Ale.



But people don't come to your establishment mainly for the beer, though, do they?

I really hate Woodhouse pubs. Shit ales and Crawley's country pubs are full of them
