FruitBrewz

My company is finally being acquired by Japan's top pharmaceutical company. This should be a good news because we had a stable financial support yet allow us to remain autonomous in our country. We had the management giving us a welcome meeting on Friday followed by a buffet lunch reception catered from GWP hotel. The food was good and we packed all the leftovers back to the our office at the end of the reception.

After work, 6 of us ladies attended the Networking party held within our hub organised by this company for their 10th anniversary. Had some red wine and beer. There was some salsa dance and magic show. We left after a while and went ahead to chill out at BW.

As we had our tummy half-filled with beer and food before arriving, we only ordered a pizza and finger food. The food there was great. We shared garlic-herb fries, calamari, buffalo wings and a hawaiian. We met 2 of our bosses ( Sg and UK ) who came to drink as well but they left as they could not find seats. It was a crowded night. Well, though we invited them to join us, they thought it was better to just leave us alone.

We were supposed to drink our hearts out, but 3 of them were too bloated. And the 3 of us only ordered a pint of Fruitbrewz to share. I requested for some shot glasses so that we can pour out the beer from the beer mug, but it turned out to be like this ( background of photo ).... in a huge beer glass. It's just impossible to pour it out without spilling so we tried using a soup spoon to scoop, followed by the teaspoon and the tablespoon. The waiter was kind enough to bring us all types of spoons... I must really commend him for his good patience in serving a bunch of morons..They British folks sitting beside us were pretty amused by our actions..kept smiling to themselves.. but we just couldn't be bothered.
