There is nothing wrong with this statement. It is informative and lets the customer know what he will get. "Pub service" sounds like a lager with a steak & kidney pie.

Yes, but it sounds like these "pub service" flights are growing beyond this limited bev service statement. AS should publicly provide an indication of the specific city pairs or a flight mileage number that triggers the limited service offering. If they want to re-brand it as pub service, fine too, but some consistency and clarity for fliers would be helpful, especially when factoring in (paid or otherwise) upgrades to premium class, etc.
