“We stillaged as much beer as we possibly could and you drank the whole lot,” tweeted new Bitterne Park Triangle micro pub the Butcher’s Hook on Saturday, after opening the previous evening.

Cheers: Butcher's Hook officially opens

 

The micropub also apologised to anyone who was planning to pay a visit on Sunday:

 

CLOSED TOMORROW, massive apologies to anyone who was planning to pay us a visit.

But there was thanks for making the opening such a huge success:

 

@hillsidepaul Everyone's support has been amazing though...seriously humbled by the whole thing to be honest, cheers!
