Free gin and tonic is just too good to be true, surely?
Well, thanks to this PR stunt, it’s not! Craft distillers LoneWolf, from the people behind BrewDog, have installed a gin and tonic vending machine at Old Street. And in return for some shameless Twitter promotion, they’ll give you one for free. All you need to do is tweet @LoneWolfSpirits, using the hashtag #TheWolfOfOldStreet. Once you’ve successfully spammed your followers (we’re sure they’ll understand!), show it to the on-site security team, and receive your token for a free G&T. Just like the gin parlours of old London, but with 100% more Twitter. (See more free things to do in London.)
As with all free things, this is a limited-time offer, however. The free G&Ts are only available from 12:30-10pm today, and 12:30-5pm tomorrow, in Old Street underground station. If you have reservations about cocktails in a can, always remember that it’s by no means the worst thing that could emerge from a hole in the wall of a dimly-lit tube station…
