When was the last time you bought...

[Paddy O'Dors]

...a half of draught beer for yourself in a pub/bar?

Don't think I ever have in 35 years tbh. Canny few lads drinking them in the bar I'm in atm. Canny pricey like, one beer and I didn't even get a 5 pund note change from me tenner.

A half? Are you in a gay bar?

 

[Le Chuck]

The only time i buy one is if say before match, i havent got time for a full one, but havent got enough to last before we leave pub, so get a half & top up my pint

A half? You mean like a pint but in a girls size?

 

[Arkle]

Do beer festivals count? It's pretty normal to get a half in your pint glass at them when you're trying to try as many ales as possible.

 

[JohnKay]

Never bought a half for myself or a marra in my 30ish years of going out like. Thought only lasses drank halfs ?

Nah mate, the Fawcett Inn is round the corner (honestly).

 

[Goat Eyes]

Only as a top up. That said it’s been a while since I last did that.

 

[Patch]

If I'm driving and I've already had a couple then I'll go onto halfs. It's called being responsible.

Aye, there's a point. I did once get 3 third pints of different beers all at once in spoons when they had a beer promotion on

Don't drive after a drink at all like, I packed in a canny few years ago.

 

[Typhoonftm]

Only at a cider/beer festival. Never to my knowledge in the pub.

[kossoff]

Pretty standard in Spain.

So 2 and a half minimum is responsible?

Good point, I forgot about the half pint freigners

Same here. I stop at 6 halfs mind.

 

[ivanthereasonable]

Every time i'm out, sort of. We go for drinks before a meal, and beforehand i always get a pint and a half, to save me the hassle of going to a crowded bar twice.
Last time i bought a half by itself was about 3 weeks ago. Normally have a pint, but was driving to the airport early the next morning,so cut down that night.

 

[Vagrant]

I had to shelter from the rain in a well to do pub with kids in tow the other week. Ordered half a Guinness as didn't want to look like an oik. It seemed tiny.
