Was talking to my mate about exactly this on Saturday at Brewdenell.

I’m wavering and will probably buy a ticket

almal100 · 2019-01-14T13:22:18.713Z

I’m working it on the Saturday day session and attending in the evening

Saturday late is when my mates are there, need to look at the logistics but will probably go for it, any idea if they’re close to selling out? Would be ideal to wait for payday…

I don’t know, I’ve not seen any “last few tickets” tweets.

I think the price of these “all in” ones stop them selling out so fast, people seem less likely to just grab tickets and work it out later when it’s £60

Severed799 · 2019-01-14T16:44:57.542Z

do they get any guests in or is it just TR? I’m going to Newport on Thursday but generally hate Tiny Rebel beers (but will have a look if decent guest selection)

almal100:

There’s a tiny Rebel/big drop 0.5% imperial stout coming soon, which should be interesting

a what?

Severed799 · 2019-01-14T16:46:28.945Z

mmm ok, might give it a go if I have time

Tiny Rebel (tinyrebelbrewco)

We are amazed by the flavors that @bigdropbrewco have produced in their 0.5% beers. We set out to break the mold together with a 0.5% Imperial Mocha Vanilla Shot Stout! Expect your brain to be dazzled as you drink a beer worthy of a 12% ABV label. https://t.co/rZcv15Fhus

Part of a box set for their 7th birthday

Severed799 · 2019-01-14T16:51:36.434Z

intriguing, I mean it’s inherently not an “imperial” but that might actually work in its favour if it can retain the taste

almal100 · 2019-01-14T16:56:03.228Z

A brewery in Liverpool, Ad Hop, made a 0.9% impy stout a few years back.

Although knowing those guys it was probably just a mistake

Think their core beers are great, cwtch and the like, but their specials are too whacky for me, and as such, I’ve not had a beer of theirs for almost a year. Went to their pub in Cardiff on a stag in 2017 and that was great mind. Mixed feels on TR

Severed799 · 2019-01-14T17:36:18.569Z

Dutty’s the only one I can stomach, fucking hate all the artificial flavouring and obsession with lactose (and their branding, for that matter)

rich-t · 2019-01-14T17:38:54.004Z

Yeah pretty much the same

WizardLizard · 2019-01-15T18:24:13.103Z

There’s always plenty of guests on in the Cardiff TR bar - in fact if you’re around on Thursday, there’s a Magic Rock tap takeover…

Severed799 · 2019-01-15T18:24:35.164Z

Best Highbury and Islington bar? I’m guessing Hammerton?

Severed799 · 2019-01-15T18:25:06.657Z

I’ll be in Newport!

WizardLizard · 2019-01-15T18:28:58.552Z

Fair. You just there for the day? The Newport bar is pretty decent (there’ll deffo will be some guests on - both keg & cask) and easily the best pub in the city.

Severed799 · 2019-01-15T18:30:43.615Z

Playing a gig so not entirely sure how much time/how close I’ll be but my impression was that might be the case

WizardLizard · 2019-01-15T18:33:35.772Z

It’s a pretty small city but the bar right by the bus / train station so dead central. Other than TR you’re pretty much limited to Spoons / unfriendly locals pubs. Where are you playing?

Severed799 · 2019-01-15T18:39:20.983Z

Le Pub!
