“REGULARS at the 760 Scottish and Newcastle pubs in the North-East have been asked to nominate their best-looking barmaid for a bonny barmaid contest. Up to now, I learn, a fair number of the 100 or so females entered for the £100 top prize are considerably on the wrong side of 40. “Mind,” says a brewery spokesman, “some of them are very attractive indeed. They’ll give the younger girls a run for their money.” Anyway, it just goes to prove what I’ve always said: Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.”

“Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.”

“We noticed a T-shirt for sale at one of the bars that said, "Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder."”

“A sign on the wall said, "BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEER HOLDER." I looked over at the man who'd recommended the Hef.”

“"If you want beer puns, I can go on forever," Mac said, raising his pint glass. "Like, Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder." He glanced in my direction. I glared at him.”
