@DonsBeerReviews George Formby is a Manx Hero..statue of him in Douglas..he starred in the TT film ' No Limit' and we have a beer in his honour..cheers Sir Don🍺👍thanks for the share mate👍
@Paul_Greenwood_ aw cheers for nice comments Paul..if you've never done a canal trip do it mate..but needs planning at 3mph to make sure u get to pubs for teatime, cheers mate🍺👍
Yup great viewing yet again with some lovely beers. My mouth is watering here . Thank goodness it’s nearly Friday. (Ps great music accompaniment again too ) . Perfect viewing.
So good I watched it twice. Good to see you've finally been 'sent to Coventry' Dave 😂. Cracking couple of pubs there and thought you were going to mix the Blue Monkey stout and OP for a mad moment there, too many broken hearts in the world already without that sort of carry on. Great trips these and some grand few slurps too 🍻
Ahh Dave , brilliant video . Highlight was seeing you with an Old Original. It’s an unchanged pint since I was a lad . If it’s right is beautiful. So glad you enjoyed it mate . I was on edge 😂😂. Cheers Dave . Please shout if your coming Leicester way 🙏🏻🙏🏻
@thespencerarms2022 it's a nice drop is Old Original, had a few of them, the Tiger was a nice steady Bitter as well. Yep if I'm on the canals around Leicester will catch up Speno..cheers Pal🍺👍
Another enjoyable video Dave, I do enjoy the canal boat ones...maybe you should get yourself one! The canal boat channels seem very popular I,m already subbed to one of the youtubers you met at the pub, will check out the other. cheers😀
When I was in my 20's I had a quarter share of a canal boat. But I've been living in the isle of man for overv35 years and we don't have canals, just the Irish Sea surrounding us. To own a boat in UK wouldn't work logistic wise. Great great trips they are, cheers Lee🍺👍
It's Thanksgiving Day here in the colonies, and quite enjoyed watching your new video whilst the ladies are busy in the kitchen. Us men folk will be frying a turkey outdoors and having a brew. Nothing nearly as tasty as what you've had, though. Cheers, Dave.
Mate, the stuff dreams are made of. I love your canal boat trips. The pubs look good and the beer looks better. Not sure about that stout. Thanks for the links to Steve and Trev’s YT channels. Love the video wish we were there 🍻
@riverman8245 it's a shame u don't have canals like this. Pubs and Canal boating just go hand in hand. Just booked a lads trip in April so another canal vid next year..cheers my good friend 🍺👍😊
@NarrowboatPreciousJet those pubs were brilliant in Coventry and the Greyhound was top drawer. Great to meet u Steve n look forward to another pint once again 🍺👍😊
Good evening Slurpy Dave I hope you are safe and well and thanks for the video 🙏.they are always an education they say every day is a school day .Keep slurping Dave ✊✊🍺🍺.
A pub in an old sewing machine shop, eh? No wonder you want to Singer 'bout that. 🙂 Been in that old pub in Coventry many times on football away days, lovely stuff. I once very nearly fell in at that exact spot your boat is moored in Coventry Basin jumping off a boat 6 inches too soon, More great beers, jokes and a fine canal trip Slurrrrpy. Cheers #Disco
@RaskoAndDiscoBeerReview 'Singer' love it😂 yeah Coventry is alright ain't it..5 min walk and you're in the city centre from the canal basin. Some good boozers..cheers for tuning in Disco 👍🍺
I am subscribed to several narrow boating channels, and it looks like a great way to see parts of the UK, that normally you wouldn't. I think it would be a great vacation, hire a narrow boat, check out the countryside and stop in at some proper pubs. Watching you have a pint, makes me think of how cheap the beer is mt friends and I drink while on the Colorado river, but to be fair, it regularly hits 43.3 celsius so after 2-3 minutes your left with witch's piss. We either have to pass the can, or shotgun the beer. Great video, thanks for sharing.
@@paulayala4816 aw mate pottering along at 3mph surrounded by beautiful countryside, pint in a pub, fish & chips, its heaven Paul. You'd love it..blimey ya beer wouldn't stay cold for long at 43'c😄 cheers for tuning in Paul👍🍺
Old Hooky, lovely pint Dave as are the Blue Monkey beers! I have a soft spot for Coventry as I worked their for many years (above where they filmed the sewer scenes in the Italian Job!). I lived in Leicester but was into my wine back then so never really drunk much Everards! Shame! 🍻
@@AndysBeerReviews interesting info about the Italian Job👍I was impressed with Coventry I must say..yes I need a few more Blue Monkey beers, this stout got me off to a iffy start with them. Cheers Andy🍺👍
Nice one Dave, the further south ya get the less head ya get 😂 Hook Norton 🍺👍🍺 that Old Windmill looks a cracking pub and OP 🍺 not a fan of synthetic tastes in beer, great video Dave as always cheers 🍺🍺
So cool how you can just pull up beside a pub on the canal 👍 question though (we have no narrow boats in New Zealand.. 😆) what happens if you meet another narrow boat coming the other way?.. the canals also look narrow, Cheers Dave and Merry Christmas 🎅🍻🍻
@hardyardsbrewers1225 when a boat comes the other way the rule is move over to the right and hope you don't meet at a bridge😄 Historically canals n pubs are a fantastic combination. Cheers for tuning in lads👍🍺
I used to drink Old Hooky and Old Peculiar a lot when I lived near Andover. Nice to see a good social club thriving, unfortunately it's becoming a rare sight nowadays. I've tried some of the Fat Head ales in cans, they are bloody awful. You're lucky with the bitter. The Ruby Ale at the end looked really nice. Good to see you getting a good reception and a few laughs in Coventry. Keep up the good work Dave, Cheers Dave 👍🏻🍻🙂
@thebarmenreviews Before I had the Fat Head Bitter I had already had that dodgy stout, couple of pints of OP and a decent 5% malty Brown ale. so I might have got carried in the moment😄 but it tasted fine to be fair. Everards Old Original a very reliable decent ale..cheers Graeme🍺👍all 4 venues were spot on🍺👍
Dave I have only just stumbled over your channel, I am originally Manc, I have been going to the TT for 44 or more years, I live near Ansty, and when on IOM I drink in The Trafalgar in Ramsey call in to see me, I am Phil.
