    The only way you will get barred from a pub is maybe fighting or taking coke in the toilets and the bouncer walks in and catches you.

    I doubt giving bar staff abit of cheek for taking your drink will result in been barred.

    you are right...but what I am asking is the LEGAL answer. WHO OWNS ALCOHOL WHICH HAS BEEN PAID FOR.

    Legally, the alcohol is yours.

    But... You only had 30 mins to drink it after last orders, as no alcohol can be consumed after this time.

    As the glass also belonged to the pub, what were you going to do with it? Tip it in your pocket??

    If you can't drink a pint in 30 mins, perhaps you're not man enough for pints, and should perhaps stick to halfs?
    Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
    Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')

    No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)

    I suppose they could have taken the glass and left your beer in your hat

    Also being sick into a pint glass, stuffing darts trophies down your pants, serving yourself when the barman isn't looking, eating a pie on the pool table, wrestling the jukebox, accidentally lodging a dart in a bald man's head, smoking a cigar made from horse s!!t, bringing your own beer, revealing your belly, singing Scottish folk songs, falling through a window, having sex with the landlord's daughter in the toilets and throwing crisps at the a!!e of a stuffed fox. All tried and tested (though not all by myself).

    The bar staff want to go home. Their night shouldn't be ruined because some prat is slowly drinking his pint 30 minutes after last orders had been called!

    Whether its legal or not is irrelevant, it's very inconsiderate

    Depends if they have an off premises license as well as on premises! And then it depends if the local council have a 'no open alcohol on the streets' policy as my local one does... ;-)
