Ep 2. The Undrinkables

The Undrinkables is the second episode of Season 7 of the Scottish sitcom, Still Game. The show revolves around the lives of two lifelong friends, Jack, and Victor, who live in the Craiglang area of Glasgow. The episode starts off with the pair sitting in the local pub, The Clansman, discussing how their favorite beer, McEwan's, has disappeared from the shelves. They soon realize that the brewery has been shut down and replaced with a trendy new bar selling craft beers.

Determined to find a suitable replacement for McEwan's, Jack and Victor decide to attend a beer tasting event at the new bar, The Leckie Tap. However, they quickly discover that they don't have the palate for the new craft beers, and find them to be undrinkable. This leads to a series of hilarious mishaps, as they try to find a suitable substitute beer that they both enjoy.

Meanwhile, Isa, the local gossip, is convinced that the new bar is a front for illegal activity, and enlists the help of the other residents to investigate it. They decide to set up surveillance and stake out the bar, which leads to some comical situations.

Back at The Clansman, Boabby, the bar manager, is struggling to keep up with the new competition and decides to launch a new range of cocktails to bring in the younger crowd. However, his efforts are in vain, as the older clientele of the pub are not interested in fancy cocktails and instead want their usual beers.

Despite their best efforts, Jack and Victor cannot find a replacement for their beloved McEwan's, and decide to take matters into their own hands by brewing their own beer. They enlist the help of Navid, the local shopkeeper, who is an expert in homebrewing. However, their attempts do not go as planned, and they end up with a beer that is even more undrinkable than the craft beers they tried before.

Overall, The Undrinkables is a hilarious episode that showcases the generation gap when it comes to beer preferences. It also highlights the importance of tradition and the resistance to change, which are common themes throughout the show. The episode provides plenty of laughs, as well as some touching moments, making it a must-watch for fans of Still Game.
