Ha 😉 Yes, it’s exactly that. The original 4.6% Carling, just rebranded as Madri. Another shocker, there’s no such thing as Father Christmas. Is that true about madri lol Yep. It's about as Spanish as Black Lace were! |

Anyone know if they are selling Guinness? Great question. I presume from cans. Does anyone also know what time it will be open? I think I’m going to go before the game instead of the usual town pubs. |

Hoping draught but it's surprisingly decent from a can via one of those machines! Still, 6 quid for a can grates! They ought to sell it on draught really, most pubs do. |

What a great addition, top work and no doubt a great revenue stream for the club.
Did notice it looks a bit bare from the pics though, needs some memorabilia, framed shirts, scarves, pictures on the walls if possible - give it a proper Town theme.

I'd expect Guinness would be harder to keep drinkable for the limited openings H Town presents. |

The Nitrosurge cans are superb if you don't over-chill and pour correctly. |

Be good if they could set up a special Datm area for all the keyboard warriors on here to arrange a meet up rather than say which block and row they are in.

Ha 😉 Yes, it’s exactly that. The original 4.6% Carling, just rebranded as Madri. Another shocker, there’s no such thing as Father Christmas. Since when was Carling available at 4.6% ?? Never been more than 4.1% from my recollection, other than the lovely Carling Premier, which was 5% IIRC. I’m always willing to be wrong. And yes, I thought that too. However I read here (could be incorrect tbf): creativepool.com/magazine/features/how-a-fake-beer-brand-took-over-uk-pubs.31204And then this guy also referenced Carling/Madri: wb.camra.org.uk/2023/09/30/does-cask-need-the-madri-effectPretty interesting, I suppose it’s all broadly the same considering how few ingredients you have to play with… There’s also a Carling ‘Premier’ which is 4.7% incidentally. Anyway, we digress. Hope this new bar/venue is a huge success for the club. It’s all positive as far as I’m concerned. UTT |

UTT Interesting article, however, I still stand by my assertion that Carling has never been that strength, certainly not since I started drinking in late 80s. Quite funny how there are actually many bars in Spain flogging the stuff ! |

That’s probably where tetley bitter went wrong.. Should have rebranded as artisan Catalan dark beer.. At least cruzcampo does have origins in Seville.. 🍻🍻 |

With the forecast Monsoons and windy weather arriving tomorrow i would imagine that H Town will be packed to the rafters. Are they going to count the number of fans going in!!.

Just seen the full menu . A bit disappointed to see that the burgers etc are only post match offerings.

I agree that it is. But think the Millenium away shirt is a close Second and the version of it this season is also welcome and very good too 👏 |

Could be unpopular opinion but I loved the 'cream and greeny' one and the yellow Panasonic. I don't know how to attach pics but they were late 90's |

Yeah it looked nice apart from the 70s style 10foot wide collar 😂 Edit: realise that looks like I’m taking the piss but I really did like it |
