    Yes, "beers" was used in the metrosexual noughties and we didn't like to say pints or pXXX ups and it was cutesy and I imagine it was used in conversations like

    Q - "Beers later?"
    A - "Coola boola"

    But come on. How about "night out" or "meet up" or the aforementioned "pXXX ups"?

    Thank you.

    Jesus.

    Though when I think about it, it has the air of porter about it at least, whereas beers seems to come from that craft beers pan European side of the drinking spectrum.

    The best is "pub?", it being a question, an invitation, and the agenda for the night ahead.

    To me, "Boards Beers" or "AH Beers" sounds better and more fun.

    "AH meet up" or whatever sounds creepy as fcuk. Like a mega organised group of social fcuktards just going to suss each other out as a pre curser to cyber and real life stalking.

    Is that what you want OP, you crazy son of a bitch?

    Living in Berlin, "beers?" is easier than "nul-comma-fuenfs?".

    That said: "coola boola"...?! When the **** did anyone ever say that in the metrosexual naughties...??

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Happy, OP?

    Look, no one is going for crafties. That's not what the kids are saying, they're saying' stoutin' and that's how it is.

    I see what you're saying but I'm not listening. Stouties can be crafties. He rule the night.

    I'll fight you outside if we can't agree.

    Just let me finish this crisp tasting smooth Double IPA with oak fruit flavours first.

    Also I feel like pointing out that the word "noughties" is very noughties.

    So you're against truth in advertising?

    Went to a Waterford city beers once. Nice people at it but won't say hi or anything to me now if I see any of them around.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 12,853 Mod ✭✭✭✭riffmongous


    I always thought all the various 'boards beers' were just another part of the great vintners conspiracy that runs Ireland

    I think it's time to start a AH 'cans in the field behind the bus station' event before it's too late
