Monday afternoon was an odd moment in the town of Gravesend, England as a pony named Mocha snuck into a bar, got drunk on beer and had to be lured using bar snacks.
Mocha’s owner, Mihaly Herczeg, who happens to be the landlord says his 12 year-old horse usually just drinks water but is always tempted by the cider and beer on tap.
He had to use crisps, pork scratching and carrots to lure the pony back into the garden where he lives.
The 53 year-old said: “Mocha lives in the garden but he managed to sneak in through the back door.
“I was coaxing him back into the garden with bits of carrot and bar snacks.
“He just drinks water but I reckon if he got the chance he would love beer and apple cider.
“I used carrot but I think he’d love pork scratchings if we dared give them to him.
“He is not a big drinker but he does walk around like he’s a bit drunk but he is very friendly and likes meeting new things and people.”
Mihaly runs the bar and says his customers love Mocha and the other animals living in the garden.
He added: “We have a huge garden so he has a small paddock in the corner, and we also have a chicken, guinea pig and a sheep.
“I bought him five years ago and he’s only managed to sneak into the pub twice, everyone loves him and the other animals here.”
