Milk in pubs and nightclubs

Riverpineapple

I really love milk at the moment and want to keep drinking it when I go on a night out. The benefits will be more protein for my workouts and no hangover. Do pubs/clubs serve milk and if so how much would a pint cost? surely it can't be in the €5 region.

Any pub that sells tea and coffee will do it for you and probably charge the same price as they would for a coke/soft drink. We charge €2.20 for a half pint but if someone asks for a pint I give it to them for the same price.

Could you not be content with a bit of Lucozade or orange juice?

Drinking milk in a pub is just wrong unless it's at lunch time & you're having a sandwich or a dinner.

Never let accuracy get in the way of schoolboy humour.

I might buy a big jacket and sneak in a few 2 litre bottles.

That would be a sight, going out with your mates to a club, everyone else sneaking in naggins of vodka and you trying to stash your 'quart' down your pants.

Not neccessarily. Take wet nurses for example:

"A woman can only act as a wet-nurse if she is lactating. Previous wisdom held that the wet-nurse must have recently undergone childbirth. This is not necessarily always the case, as regular breast suckling can elicit lactation via a neural reflex of prolactin production and secretion. Some adoptive mothers have been able to establish lactation using a breastpump so that they could feed an adopted infant."

School boy humour or not, at least get the facts right..;)

Water would be better to drink and a handful of peanuts now and then while out. And then more water when you come home. Before bed drink milk and whey protein for a slow release of protein to offset catabolism.

Thanks, there's a whole load of tea over my monitor......

Imagine the scene...

"I'll have a pint"

"Offff.."

"Eh...... do you have milk?"

"SECURITY, SECURITY........"

I think they sell it in the Unmanly Inn.

What are you, 7? the milky bar kid?

Fizman

To be seen with a glass of milk on a night out, would be similar to be seen with a sword in school.

It would be somewhat frowned upon.

it's more likely he's B.A. Baracus, and I'd be careful if I were him......I've the sneaky suspicion some of his friends may try to spike his milk.

And when ScienceNerd means "recently given birth" he doesnt mean that as soon as the lady "drops" one out on the dancefloor ...that you go straight in for the fill with your pint glass!!

I went to a pub for a drink with a friend a few years ago. I asked for 2 pints of Miller. The barman served me up 2 pints of milk. What a clown.

Whippersnapper

I normally drink pints of water when I go out. Don't drink alcohol and never thought of asking for milk. Must try it.

Did you not get along with it before or what?

You say that as if you're gonna start seeing other drinks soon. :pac:

If you're looking for a slow releasing protein you'd want Caesin, yes the fat in the milk would slow down the breakdown of the protein but whey is still a poor choice before bed if you have other options at hand.

OP, don't become such a fitness head you wont have a couple of pints just because of extra calories or it will negatively effect your gains. Seriously, if you cut out alcohol on a night out and drink milk instead, you're more than likely only a step away from considering AAS or PHs.

We all have phases of food and drinks we like. I'm in a milk phase right now. Has to be ice cold though. Beautiful.

On nights out 50cent limits his beverages to milk and water.

a buddy of mine does a shyteload of rowing and only drinks milk or water. he turned up to a class party in college with a 2 litre bottle of milk. no one said anything to him about it, mainly cos he was huge and would've kicked the shyte out of them anyway.

Would water not have sufficed?

Unless you drink vodka and milk which is nasty anyway.

I second that. I like milk, I like vodka, they should be perfect together.

Oh & I forgot to mention that I worked in a pub before that served food.

They used to leave the milk out in jugs before service started & at the end of the lunch time trade all the individual jugs of milk were poured back into the milk cartons along with the hairs, crumbs, germs sneezed/ coughed into the milk, flies etc.

Anyway, I personally wouldn't drink milk in a pub.

df1985

cocktail bars would have it because you need milk for white russians. but walking into a cocktail bar and asking for a pint of milk......let us know how that goes!

Drinking milk on a night out is like being the Big Lebowski. If he was really lame.

I have drank tia maria and milk(in a glass with a straw, no umbrella) in pubs on a few occasions, tho its actually a bit more girly than a pint of milk imo

It's 2 shots of vodka away from a White Russian.

TheCardHolder

Some have milk there for making certain drinks like a butterscotch mickeyfinns and milk. Such a sexy drink.

toiletduck

Used to charge e1.20 for a pint a few years back. I imagine what you'd be charged would vary wildly from place to place. Thankfully would send someone packing if they asked for it now :pac:

Tbh you're probably better off with water. In lots of places that pint of milk you get at the start of a night would be a mix of fresh and stuff that was out for hours that morning for breakfast.

That's the equivalent of saying 'The benefits of not going to the gym is that I won't feel tired'.
