what do you think Oh Linda ! NO, YES, Maybe !!!
For the same reason dinner, meals and food worked, I'd say yes to eat (counting in miscellaneous category). Since I did allow "gin bottle" from Circle of Steel it would seem logical to include alehouse too. Flagon is questionable, however, but just for a moment. People do say things like "drink a pint" with the assumption meaning beer/ale/stout, etc. I wonder if anyone ever says "drink a flagon." Presumably that's what GL had in mind, especially since it's in the same line with ale. So let's go for it and err on the side of yes. The key here is they are all in the context of food. Respectable indeed, Jesse Joe. Good work! This brings the food and beverages to an even tie!
