bought a 1/2 pint of draft beer in a Camden Town pub recently & nearly feel off my stool it was 4.60! It was I was told when coming too & registering the cost a 'boutique brew.' Needless to say no more were had.

Mexican beer. The Mexican beer we get in the U.K. is all brewed in Europe and has a different taste to the genuine Mexican stuff plus it costs about 1000 times more than in Mexico.

Can anyone explain to me why they stick a wedge of lemon in the neck of a bottle of Corona? Does Mexican berr taste so bad?

if the price goes down it may be because it has a shelf life and is coming close to its end date ,here in Fla I buy beer for $15 a case of 24 .but if its close to the end date it goes down below that ,so I stock up . at 4 a day have to watch for sales .(blimey there,s one I,m off to the store )tarar der lads

I pay £3.00 a pint for Guinness here in the South , so the Supermarket wins every time for the same money I can get two and a half pints in cans

I pay 65cents(€) for a litre bottle of Argus beer in my local Lidl & €5.49 for a bottle of Gin here on the Costa Blanca, no wonder me liver is shot.

My younger brother, ex Master Mariner then Master Brewer, had a Brewery in Liverpool, and last week he came over for my Birthday, his birthday on same day, and brought a barrel of Real Ale, 36 pints. He sold it, It is now owned by the Liverpool Pale Ale Company. But he still gets his ale at cost. as he is still on the pay roll.
works out at about just under 90 pence a pint. Good strong BRITISH Real Ale. No stupid chemicals in it. Does you good as well. Much better than that European crap.
Just finished the last of it.

HI Cappy.
I was talking to my son about the beer prices here, he said when he started work [as a bank teller] 25 years ago he could for a weeks wages buy 900 schooners of beer, he now works in a shop and for a weeks wages he can buy 300 schooners, what does that show wages haven't kept up with beer prices or beer prices have gone up faster than wages.!!!!!!
Cheers Des

The fact is that here in Oz beer sales are down, more are now drinking spirits or wine.
