The Twerton McDonalds in Bath had a magnificent banner outside it after it launched, which read “Now Open”, complete with quote marks.

Benefit of the doubt would be to presume they were trying to distinguish between the Zionist state of Israel (with whom they have political issues) and Jews in general (with whom they have no issue).

#17

they’ve probably been drinking

Classic Chorlton dwellers

The people of Chorlton are worried about the rise of Prestwich as the Chorlton of North Manchester because North Manchester is cooler. There’s a lot of Jews in Prestwich. Make of that what you will.

they are fiercely pro-israel. the key is ‘owed’ - it means they don’t sell to businesses who owe money to israelis

Ha, I didn’t even spot that.

either way, they’re fucking pricks:

Always find it weird when people who are trying to sell something get involved in political shit. As a potential customer it would put me off right away, whether or not i agreed with their point(s).

#23

judging by the fact that they’re only now losing pro-ukip brexiteers after saying they want someone to shoot trump, i’m going to guess them ‘speaking out’ using this account is new?

#24

where’s that sneeze thread from yesterday?

#25

Huh. Interesting.

Guy that runs the twitter account is also their head brewer and I’ve heard so many dodgy things about him. Most are pretty tame though and centre around him being a colossal snob, such as ridiculing breweries for making ‘craft’ lagers before then bringing out his own range of single hop lagers. They’re also bringing out a low ABV ‘black truffle’ beer soon in 660ml bottles. £36.

Remember him threatening to move his brewery to Berlin if Brexit happened. No news on that recently.

Got a penchant for making beers that taste like soap as well.

The farmhouse IPA is nice as long as you’re not a zionist

#28

I really liked their standard IPA.

Definitely a bit uncomfortable with some of the stuff they’re banging on about though (or if not uncomfortable, they sound a bit a bit of a tit).

#29

never had one of their beers

won’t be having one now

What is it about people who run bars and twat behaviour?

(This is a reference to Wetherspoons)

#31

Definitely the latter

#32

Their woodruff berliner is one of the worst beers i’ve had this year

#33

Fixed that for you.
