Off Licences

We're not fusted about off licences/pubs/supermarkets that sell boozse as we're tea-total

A pub i used to go to (when i did drink) had an off licence at the back door so you didn't have to go into the bar

 

Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit, you know

 

Coronavirus Regulations enable pubs to operate as temporary off-licences

Alcohol licensing: guidance on new temporary off-sales permissions

 

I can remember pubs like that and when one person got chucked out the bar, they immediately tried to buy something from their off-licence.

 

I think far too much has been said already.

And the under age children

 

As an almost 100% homebrewer, I can no longer see a purpose for off-licences.

Their main use was being open of an afternoon when the pubs were closed, and they were cheaper than off-licences attached to pubs.

With the extension of pub (and supermarket) opening hours, and cheap supermarket booze, I'm surprised they're still in existence.

I can produce a decent red (Blackberry) wine for 30p a bottle.

 

+vat presumably? Ok, I’ll take 10 bottles

 

3lbs of Blackberries, free from the hedgerows, plus 1Kg sugar/gallon (6 bottles) @ 50p/Kg from Farm foods, less 10% for shops over £25, plus a few other bits and pieces.

 

I'm also teetotal, so no use for them, or pubs.
