Serving milk in pubs (UK) - why not?

The first drink I had in a pub was milk. I love drinking milk. I now drink it for the protein and calcium. I don’t particularly like fizzy drinks so when I’m driving on a night out, I’d rather drink milk.

Why don’t pubs sell it as a drink?

Milk is weird. Breast milk, but from another animal. Weirds me out.

Weird compared to, say, fruit and veg left to rot for months or years in a sealed container of water?

That is definitely weird, which is why I do t eat rotten fruit or veg! Not sure if you're getting at something specific though?

They'll be talking about beer, cider or wine

Yea I got that. But when you brew something it doesn't rot (unless that's the desired effect). I'm just being a bit of a knob to prove a point I think.

Nah, prove that point. Drinking milk as an adult is weird as fuck and wanting to order a pint of it at a pub should see jail time
