The Thinking Drinker’s Guide To Alcohol (Dwink: Ben McFarland and Tom Sandham)
By Julian Benson | Published on Saturday 27 August 2011
No bones about it, some shows are bulletproof: be it their reputation or their content, nothing a reviewer says will change a reader’s mind. Offering free alcohol in return for listening to jokes and the history of booze, this is one such show; few people are going to care what a reviewer thinks. I’ll simply say that that you’ll drink Deuchars Beer, Zubrowka Bison Grass Vodka, Meastro Dobel Tequila, Kraken Spiced Rum, Tankeray No. 10 Gin, Perod Absinthe, Ketel One Vodka. Fantastic drinks, with fascinating discussion from funny people. You may be put off by the early afternoon show time, but if you’re over 18 and don’t need to operate heavy machinery in the early afternoon, then go along.
Pleasance Courtyard, 4 – 29 Aug, 1.00pm (2.00pm), £8.00 – £11.00, fpp157.
