Humorous oddity in Wetherspoon's Beer List   
There are no Australian beers in the current Wetherspoon's Beer
Festival. But the nooklet that accompanies it features at least two
Aussie flags. It's obvious that someone mixed up Oz & New Zealand
flags at some point. And I don't think Tim Martin would like that.

I need to see what goes-on in a nooklet. I'd like to photograph it but
would I be allowed to remove the flags, beforehand?

Must be true.

Here's a pic of Nookey Broon on draft (not draught) at the Green Parrot
bar in Key West Florida.

 .... but not in Newcastle-upon-Tyne it isn't; from where it will no
longer be brewed.
