I always have a pre-match drink in the Blue Boar and drink Aussie Blond a nice beer!
Brentwood brewery by all accounts.
Please can we have this beer in Far Post and other Bars at Roots Hall.

We've had Aussie Blonde before but not for some time. Seem to be stuck on Tribute at the mo.

Pumps all went down in the Far Post and Shrimpers for a little while yesterday, which was frustrating.

Frustrating indeed. First time I have left the pub early to have drink in the Shrimpers. Asked for a Guiness and they said its off. Asked for 2 Amstels instead and that's off. One of our group said he would head over to the West and the girl said it would be the same over there?.

With that info I assumed that it was lack of ale rather than the pumps. So we spent jus chatted outside and warned other not to bother.

Is Aussie Blond an ale, or another lager?

No, it was an issue with the pumps.

The brewery sent someone out urgently.

I'm not disputing that. It was the duff info given to us by bar staff. I never bothered at H/T either on that info.

The usual stewards outside the Shrimpers, busily on their phones rather than paying attention. They should have had the pumps are down at the moment info. That way they could let anyone know before they entered.
