    The Globe are doing pints, cans and cocktails to take away. They definitely had Guinness and Heineken, not sure what else on tap.

    All over the place in town; it’s actually mad the number of people clogging up pavements drinking outside, rolling barrels and the like into roads for makeshift seats.

    I was in town yesterday, Mary's and The Globe both selling takeaway pints. No Guinness left in Mary's but The Globe had Guinness, there were gangs of people standing around South William Street and outside Grogans.

    A good crowd of people drinking on Dame Court in the evening then around 8 o'clock the Guards came along and started moving people on.

    Grogans are making pains to point out that they're closed and anyone drinking outside there got the pints elsewhere.

    While I haven't indulged in a pint or buying one from a pub, as I don't really see the point of buying one to drink at home. I might however if I was out on a walk and fancied a pint. However, it is this type of behaviour that ruins it for everyone. Get your pints and fúck off to a place where your not bothering anyone. Other publicans should be telling the pub to do the same.

    Not sure if it was the exchequer. They were being served out of a doorway on that side of dame court but possibly too far down to be a side door of the exchequer.

    I think RíRá at the back of The Globe have a hatch sort of set up now too, could have been them.

    Its a grasp at a return to somewhat of a normality and to catch up with friends. I dont see how that is "tragic".

    Yes there appears to be a good few places selling pints, and also a mixture of others drinking cans. No harm, as someone said above people are trying to get back to a sense of normality and catch up with friends.

    But is anywhere allowing people in to use toilets? I saw two girls going to the toilet in Dame Lane (from a distance) and thought they were drug users or homeless, only to bump into them soon after and see they were far from the drug users homeless people I envisaged.

    To be fair... town was like a ghost town and most people were in groups of 2 sitting at least metres apart from other people doing no harm. I get where you are coming from though to an extent.

    just buy cans or bottles in off licence

    beers in lines from keg are bad if they are not used everyday
