Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for February 26, 2024

Secrets out!

tsk – and you’ve been drinking it anyway, Andy!?

Only for those in purple shirts Ron!

Either Jack’s watering down the brew or he’s secretly replaced it with an American brand (other than Henry Weinhard’s Private Reserve).

So, who’s forcing the worthless bum to even go there?? And I DON’T mean Ron!!

Andy has to drink twice as much to get drunk.

Water helps prevent hangovers, which is why drinkers hate to have their drinks watered down. If these were the good old days, Eldo might have posted the legendary Don Martin toon in Mad Magazine about the interesting sound effects Andy made when he accidentally drank water….

#1, who hasn’t had a guy named Jack be a bartender? #2 will Andy ever be allowed in that pub again?

So? Americans drink watered-down beer all the time. They call it “Lite.”

Bad service.

Well, Jack has a good barber. 10 hairs on each side. Wonder if his sideburns are level.

I’ve never worked in any pub where they water-down the beer… it changes the entire aspect of the beer… colour, flavour etc… It’d be noticed by even the least discerning client…

Spillage is often added to a dark draught beer (wooden barrel)…

It’s impossible to add anything to keg beer… the stainless-steel barrel is pressurised…

I’ve known whiskey to be watered-down… far too often…

Andy’s getting back at Jack for disallowing his tab?

A Studebaker Lark?

As a beer drinker…..but not a connoisseur….I consider any lite beer as watered down beer. I have never found a lite beer that I would buy. There have bee times when nothing else was available to drink, but my pride wasn’t strong enough to let me refuse to drink it. I guess I’m with Andy on this count.

And Andy would know all about that.

Too many customers like Andy will drive you to that.

Better watch it, Andy! You’re p-i-s-s-i-n-g Jack off! ;-p

Spoken like a true expert!

Some years ago I vacationed for a few weeks in Ireland. And found that is some of the pubs the young people’s beer of choice was …. Budweiser!! Go Figure. I just enjoyed my Guinness and smiled to myself.

some of us do but this American likes real beer

I don’t drink “Lite” beer. I drink 5.5% alcohol and up in my beer.

Andy, I think you just got cut off, and you’re running out of pubs to go to.

Why did Ron change his hat? The white goes with nothing he is wearing.

If you don’t like it, why are you drinking it, Andy?

Andy — Flagged!!

With patrons like Andy is it any wonder the beer is watered down
