coolcol.bsky.social @coolcol.bsky.social · 16/08/2026Many viable pubs are made unviable by the costs loaded onto them by the pub cos, charging high rents, forcing the landlords to buy only their own beers at inflated wholesale prices when independent (and usually better) beers could be bought more cheaply... and so on. 100
