BrewDog: yet another hip company using 'rebel' language to sell its stuff

[editor]

Isn't that quite an old pic?

Is that your best attempt of a defence of this pathetic sexist drivel?

I'm just wondering where it lies on the timeline relative to your "slap a Spice Girl" games.

 

[discobastard]

I've never been in a brewdog pub. I drank one of their beers once, by mistake. But everything about the company screams shit products aimed at arseholes and my nose for such things is never wrong.

Think I can see squarely where the problem lies then.

One barrel. Truly scraped.

Well, technically should be bitter rather than sour.
There are some sour beers out there, I usually can't stand them.
Hoppiness is more of a mood thing. I think we're past 'peak hop' now, but I'm going to a massive beer festival on Friday so can verify for sure by the weekend.

Bitter and sour are two cheeks of the same arse when it comes to beer, afaic. Which Festival are you going to? I'm going to Beirfest at Billingsgate the Friday after this. Fancy it?

I thought we were at peak hop when I quit booze, and that was 6 years ago. Reports from the frontline suggest it's only got more and more hoppy since...

This one. Festival is a lot better than the web design skills on display in the link.
Is usually up at the Castle but its being renovated right now. Beirfest looks like a fun one, but that weekend is the big Oxjam weekend round my manor (they really go to town with it).

Wow - 6 years off the booze. Good going.
I think we're just on the other side of "peak IPA" now, which is quite hoppy in general, but I'd say we're well past the extremist hop wars phase.

Totally.

We have The Camden brewery here, one of the worst offenders in the trade, and quite a few pubs only stock their beers. It's hell I tell ya. Hell!

 

[teuchter]

Hip, trendy and expensive with lots of polished concrete. Quite lovely really, rounded it off with a nice gig in a lovely Theatre.

It sounds like Bristol is nearly as good as London.

Yeah, we have a few pubs with their beers (tends to be the trendier ones) - very much on the hoppier side.

Yeah, with people who think they're doing future generations a favour by eating meat with something that isn't meat on top.

Oh, is context suddenly important now?

Those future generations are a right load of whiny cunts tbf.

 

[teuchter]

People who are into a slightly different kind of wanky to the Effra Hall Tavern, I would guess.

That's my favourite pub in Brixton. Mainly its frequented by authentic people like me. So you can't say it's wanky.

And what have unborn children done for me lately eh?

I don't even know if this is meant as a joke and that only makes it funnier.

Well, I personally wouldn't have been caught dead running round the aether of infinite future probabilities making shrill demands of 15th Century peasants. I may not have existed, but I had *some* dignity.

 

[teuchter]

It's a simple statement of fact, and anyone who's lived in brixton as long as I have would recognise this.

Were talking about the obvious sexism in a recent Brewdog promotional photo in a thread about Brewdog.

Now tell me what possible relevance that has to an internet game which vanished off the web around two decades ago has to this discussion?

Oh, looked up the times now, have you?
Seemed like it wasn't relevant before.

So when *was* the Brewdog pic? They look very fresh-faced but maybe they've just got the money for expensive moisturiser these days.

 

[pesh]

whats wrong wiv being sexy?

Picture was taken in 2013. It's on page 1 of this thread. So, six years ago.

I'm not sure what timings have to do with anything.

The 'Punch' section on these boards still say this about Gail Porter:

Here's the awful slapper who gets her tits out for any magazine that asks, throws herself at any passing pop star and then moans when she feels she's 'not being taken seriously as a woman'.

This about Anne Widdecombe:

Here's the mad witch who declared a 'zero tolerance' policy on drugs, announcing that anyone caught with cannabis - no matter how small the amount - should be fined £100.

We reckon a firm slap can surely only help matters for the still-unflowered Widders, but be careful...there's something very spooky about this lady...

Anne Robinson:

We don't care if she tries to act all tough on her shite 'Weakest Link' TV show, but when this wrinkled old hag starts slagging off the Welsh - our beloved countrymen - there's only one thing to say to her...

I really don't think there are any lessons to take on sexism from anyone whose site carries this kind of revolting, misogynistic, trash.

Click on their names.

Says the hypocrite who was only to happy to be sexist to me a few days back.
