Huge thank you to everyone who joined in and cheers to those catching on the replay! In the spirit vPub all monetisation will be turned off so there is no adverts. Cheers!
You'd have to be a goose not to have enjoyed this entertaining night at the Slap Inn. Loved the way said goose kept rearing its silly head throughout the proceedings. Great guests (not a goose amongst them), great conversation and great drams. Even the gate crashers at the end managed not to make a complete goose of themselves despite the lateness of the hour and their poultry participation in the quiz. Has to be the best vPub when you're not really having a vPub! Cheers.
Thanks for stepping in and hosting Jeff. Love the pub front with the geese and The Slap Inn sign. 😀An interesting conversation about Campbeltown, followed by a brutal Menno quiz. I managed a lucky 5/10 pass mark but only after changing an answer at the last second. I like the Guess the Bottle game too. Cheers!
Half on the live and the rest on the replay. Thank you so much for looking after the smut pub whilst Roy was getting wasted 🤪🤣. Fantastic night and a great guest line up.
Wish I’d been awake enough to watch this live. My victorianna has just made its way to my imminent cupboard and have a few other Campbeltown bottles in the queue including some from the Springbank distillery shop….
Thank you! It was a great fun livestream and grateful for Roy trusting me with the keys again. Will be live this coming Tuesday with some familiar guests ;) Cheers for watching!
I was watching a random travel blog channel on UA-cam where she was visiting Campbeltown and their few seconds showing the Cadenhead’s shop shows me and my wife leaving the shop. Very random as I’ve only been to Campbeltown once as an adult.
I can't now recall on which whisky-related website I read it, but someone asked the swa about the claim that Campbeltown needed to have at least three distilleries in order to remain regarded as a whisky region, and the swa denied there was any truth to that otherwise charming story.
Hey jbar, be great if you could find the website with that claim, it really is a good story and certainly matches the Springbank ethos. Either way it is a great whisky tale. Thanks for watching and tuning it.
Hi Jeff, I quite agree it would be nice to re-find that article. I read it a couple of months ago but the article was not recent, i.e. it would perhaps have been written at least a couple of years prior, if not more. While it's easy to find iterations of the claim the swa threatened to de-regionalise Campbeltown, I haven't been able to re-find the one that on the contrary claimed such was a myth. Some even claim the swa threat against Campbeltown was made in 1988. That would seem peculiar, though, as I think Campbeltown had just 2 distilleries from the 1930s to the early-2000s, and if the swa "threat" was made in 1988, why did they wait a further 12 years prior to Glengyle's re-opening (2004 but being revived from c.2000)? Some versions also claim the figure of three distilleries needed to constitute a region was due to the Lowlands region then having three. I'm not sure and could be mistaken, but were there not periods in the 20C when there were fewer than three lowlands distilleries--e.g. Bladnoch was closed 1937-56?

Thanks, Jeff, for filling in and assembling a fun group for a vPub, and thanks Rob, Meno, Jenny and Kevin for helping him out. Brilliant stuff! 👏👏👏
Thanks, it certainly was a strong whisky group, a real A team! Glad you enjoyed it.
Great job Jeff and guests! Brilliant episode
Thank you Whiskytoon, it was great fun and yet to comedown from the Campbeltown chatter. Cheers.
Many thanks to you and all your guests including the drop ins from Campbeltown.
Thank you Richard! Had a blast and think it is fair to say the Campbeltown folk did too. Cheers.
Hi Jeff. Thanks for stepping behind the bar, great VPub, great guests and I like the guess the bottle game. Slàinte Jeff 🥃
Thanks David, not sure if Roy will leave me the keys again 😂 The guess the bottle game has really caught on which is great! Cheers for joining in!

haha the smut pub wasn't my intention but having the "whisky slapper" host it, think it was unavoidable. Thanks for watching.
Thanks, Jeff, for the pop-up. Had to leave early but catching up on the replay. 👍
Thanks for tuning in Major Nut and hope you enjoy the replay. No one won the bingo so maybe you may have a lucky card on catch up! Cheers.
Loved catching up the reply, Was 4 off on the bingo!
That is a pretty solid bingo score and thanks for catching up on the reply! Cheers.
Great stream Jeff! Really enjoyed it 🍻
Thank you buddy, glad you enjoyed it. Cheers!

Grateful to you catching up on the replay Ed. Was expecting the Victorianna to pop up in someone's list. Cheers for the support, means alot!
Fab Vpub thanks for stepping behind the bar
Thank you so much for joining in and becoming a bottle slap club member. How did you do on the bingo?
@@JeffWhisky about half a card 😂
@@hellswidd4628 That is not too bad going, few people was only one short! Cheers.
Great stream, Jeff! I’m looking forward to more. Cheers!

Cheers mate, I got back late 😉I don't think I'll be the last, wish your Daughter well from us all
Cheers James! Thanks, she is doing well with it and getting there.
