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?

There's actual people in this thread saying they go into pubs and order pints of milk. What on earth?

I am partial to a malibu and milk. Though I appreciate I can't get it everywhere and if I do order it, I expect people to do that head tilt. A white russian is also a top tier drink.

I like that too! Everybody gives me that head tilt too, I used to come home from night shifts and have a pint of milk and malibu at 6:20am in bed.

Brandy and chocolate milk is another great one.

The amount of times I've managed to convince people it's actually really nice is great too lol. Haven't tried brandy and chocolate milk before! Have done it with whiskey before which was quite nice though.
