    Good news, makes sense, although personally I thought Meantime lager was overpriced & not to my taste.
    But that's my personal taste, just as I dislike most craft lagers.

    Excellent news. 
  • But everything is wrong under TS and he isn't spending any money at all !  ;)

    Seriously - Its a step in the right direction and responds to feedback I guess.

    And, in the photo, doesn't Steve Browne look like he was born to be a pub landlord!

    A few years late, should be partnering with companies like this when they first come on to the scene and are making a name for themselves, but at least we've partnered with them now. Looking forward to a Charlton inspired beer, perhaps a nice red ale called Red Red Robin?

    Great great news, great beer too!
  • I step in the right direction.
  • I’m sure the ale enthusiasts will report on any drink served at more or less than 0.2 degrees of the optimum temperature, poured at an incorrect angle, in the wrong glass or if the head is a couple of mm too big or small.

  • better !
  • It is good news. It's not cask conditioned so will be more viable than their attempt at selling real ale in the fan's bar. Just hope it's not ridiculously priced, as Meantime beers are normally a bit more expensive.

    Only available in the directors lounge
  • Seems very sensible.  Local brewery, local club. Obvious tie up.

    This and the University tie up are good for the club and I hope we can do more.

    That's nice!  A Danish-American owned football club has tied up a deal with a Japanese-owned brewery.

  • Japanese brewery, no cask conditioned, no Gluten free. Nothing to get excited about.

    Good news!
  • Wait until you see the prices.
  • Great news. Absolutely right that we support small up and coming local businesses. I look forward to receiving a single sheet of paper when I next visit The Valley explaining why we are going to start playing in Tokyo, the bus routes to get there, and a comment on how good the pitch is.

    They are but an alternative to flat, stale pints is a good thing. Worth paying a bit of extra money for.

    It's got to be a major improvement on the current offering of John Smith's etc. Meantime's beers are expensive but so are most half decent keg beers.

    I'm sure the Meantime offering will be properly Charltonised and levelled down to Fosters and John Smiths
  • Meantime will also be brewing Dark Star beers in the new year.

    Great news, i suggested this in one of the fans forums, and fair play the club have followed through.
