Peculier Pub
From Frikipedia
"Peculier" is right. This pub is in a basement, is full of students and smells accordingly.

Adornments
- Filthy tables, adorned with graffiti dated as far back as 1988.
- Bottle-cap artwork on the walls, including a rendition of Van Gogh's "Starry Night".
- Toilets which have the unusual ability to leave you filthier than when you entered.
NO DAMN FRULI!
Yes, it's true. Despite an intensive search (beermenus.com) which suggested that Peculier Pub stocked Fruli (under the "Frubee" guise), the waitress disappointed Friki with no Fruli, and the pointless tale that "I had this exact same conversation before -- it must be an old website" (it's not -- it was launched earlier this year). Turns out that Peculier Pub's own website is also out of date.
Zero celtic crosses for you, Peculier Pub. You smell, and your artwork is bad. Although notable by its presence, your quizzy is so out-of-date and sticky, Friki daren't touch it. Worst of all, you let Friki down with the promise of Fruli, and all you really had to offer in the way of strawberry beers was Abita.
New York needs to work harder. With no Fruli, NYC pubs will never get that elusive fifth celtic cross.
Friki Update
In response to a polite web-based enquiry to the Peculier Pub about their lack of Fruli, and potential for stockage thereof:
"Unfortunately, the distributor had discontinued this beer. but i can suggest you an alternative, which is called Atiba [sic] strawberry. thank you."
Either the staff at the Peculier Pub have been reading Friki and have replied to our enquiries ironically, or they have no taste-buds. You're dangerously close to negative-five celtic crosses.
Dirty Scale: 25 points
In a slightly disturbing turn of events, Frikipedia has discovered that the NYC Department of Health (and Mental Hygiene) posts results of its health inspections online...

Glad Friki didn't eat here...
