2022/09/23

In our final addendum to the Speight's episodes, we talk about the West Coast Beer Boycott which we had to skip over but is actually a really great story pitting the strong unions against an association of pubs.

96 - The Six O'Clock Swill

History of Aotearoa New Zealand ·

2022/09/09

Today we talk about what has probably had the biggest impact on Aotearoa's drinking culture, the (sometimes) legally enforced six o'clock closing time for pubs that went from 1918-1967. However you may know it by its more colloquial name that came about due to the rush of drinking it encouraged for those who finished work at 5pm, the six o'clock swill.Check out the website and shownotes!Become a Patron!https://www.patreon.com/historyaotearoaBuy some
