New Fantasyland Pics

I hope it's okay to post this link, since it's official WDW:

Gaston's Pub (Pic#4) looks like a lot of fun, but can someone tell me why there are kids purchasing and chugging down mugs of beer?!? LOL

Since that is part of Magic Kingdom (no alcohol allowed!) I would have to think that what they are chugging is Root Beer!!

BTW - Yes, I did get your sarcasm!!

Maybe it's Butterbeer (DOH!)

I was thinking the same thing, that they were trying to imitate Harry Potter. I'm starting to think that the competition from Universal with the success of HP was a good kick in the rear for WDW. Let's hope they go for the one-up instead of just trying to get on-level. Savvy?

[BrerGnat]

It'll be their version of Butterbeer. I'm sure they already have someone working on "replicating" the recipe...

Why are so many of those pictues so generic? Like, the one of Ariel?

Not only generic, but these are old pics. Why are they making them seem like they are newly released?

The last two are the only ones that don't seem familiar.

My first thought was Butterbeer as well!

Looks like we all had the same idea! Also, call it nitpicky, but why is Belle greeting people outside of her father's cottage in her ball gown?!?

[SpecJoe Magic]

I think it's a little strange that a place called Gaston's Tavern won't be serving beer.

I was thinking the same thing. And also the picture showing Belle giving story time inside her father's cottage, that picture doesn't look like the inside of a cottage, more like the inside of a castle. And she's in her ball gown in that picture also.

How weird is that?

I sure hope that if Disney does do something like butterbeer, they do a better job at it. Butterbeer is good going down, but boy does it leave a wicked aftertaste, one you just can't get rid of.

[akaDisneyDreamer]

My guess would be root beer. Why would they chose to serve a "Harry Potter" beverage at Gaston's Pub? Anyway, I can't wait to see all this, ball gown in the village and all!

[Butters]

It's probably just for the pic since it's called a tavern... I expect a menu of root beer and coke products.

Amen. Thank God for Epcot

Why do they serve beer at some parks, and not at others I'll never understand.

Though butterbeer?

[Bellerella]

I think to keep with the pub theme, they might serve root beer/root beer floats in fancy mugs? I don't think they would serve butter beer; to me it seems they would want to keep with their own thing. (Plus butter beer sounds kinda gross to me...)

[texas211]

Just googled butterbeer. Gross. Please don't introduce that foulness. Serve Dolewhips, there can't be too many of them.

I can assure you Disney will not be serving Butterbeer, but for what it's worth, I really like it - especially the frozen variety.

Frozen butter beer is great! Much better than non-frozen. Disney will probably come up with their own kid friendly version of some kind of root beer/cream soda drink. But to those of you knocking butter beer... try it first!

That's what I was going to say too! Why is Maurice's cottage all fancy like that? Are we supposed to believe that now that Belle is married to the Beast, she used her large bank account to renovate her father's house?!?!?!
