Went out to eat last night, the menu was pretty limiting with only 1 veggie main, or a salad. Only one meat eater in the party.
There was a beer that sounded interesting, but the menu didn't say what size, so I asked the waitress.
- It's like, um, a bottle.
- Yes, what size? 330 ml or 500 ml?
- Um, like a lager bottle. I could go and find out?
Beer arrives, it's 500ml. The glass is 330 ml. It's bottle conditioned.
- Be careful pouring, there's a sediment.
The bottle says "Best Before (date in the past)"
- Sorry, but this beer is out of date
- No it's not, that's just best before, not sell by
- Really? So the beer's past its best? I'd really prefer a beer that wasn't!
- Sorry, I've just been told to say that, I'll take it off your bill.
