Price if a pint where you live

[Quicknick]

Neck oil is about 6.30 in the black bull, but I can’t say I go there to drink a lot, usually just for food

WTF is neck oil?

[Swizzlestick]

How much is the cheapest lager?

Not sure but I imagine you'll be struggling to pay less than £4.50.

[GetIntoEm]

I'm near Preston and it's over a fiver in the local now for a 'premium' lager like Peroni or Madri

Its a bit of a shock when you have your first mouthful but then goes down really nicely.
I'm a big fan!

Usually a bit of a shock for the customer when I see them get stung £6.10 in the Bridge down Padiham

[Tonto]

Probably a Welsh one; they have that Feeling Foul one there too

Not pronounced like that but i certainly would if i drank it,though i know plenty who do ,live in the same town that makes it ,most pubs our way are under £4 a pint ,spoons less obviously

[Herts Clarets]

WTF is neck oil?

Beavertown Neck Oil is half decent for a keg beer. Couple of the McMullens pubs in town have Rivertown Brewery IPA, which at 5.6% is a very decent drop. Helps when the pubs are walking distance from the brewery.

[cockneyclaret]

I'm in Eastbourne and it's roughly around £5 to £6..

[Swizzlestick]

"premium"

I think it's fair to say Peroni and Madri are at least marketed as 'premium' lagers, compared to, say, Carlsberg or Fosters.

[aggi]

Probably about £6.50 on average now. Although my old school local is still about £4 so that slightly alleviates the pain.

[TommyPicks]

Between £4 and £5.20, if you're going for a top end lager. Even more in the Ribble Valley.

[Claretmisterg]

Lovely pint of Moorhouses or guest ale £3.60 in either Bridge Inn at Higherford or Rising Sun at Blacko.

Craft beer.

Can't print what my CAMRA mate calls it.

[Clovius Boofus]

I've seen plenty of CAMRA types championing craft beers and the independent breweries that produce it. It's like a lot of stuff, there's good, bad and indifferent.

I don't listen to him when he talks about ale.

[Jamesy]

Here in Shrewsbury it’s around £4.20 a pint for cask beer in most pubs except the poncey establishments. I drink craft beers also. They are not cheap. Looking at £6 for a low ish 4-5% ABV and up to £8-9 for stronger ones, although these are sold in 2/3’s and 1/2’s also.
Still represent better value than the £5+ fizzy Stella/San Miguel offerings.
Popular craft beers can be, Verdant, Cloudwater, Track, Beak, and numerous other micro breweries. It’s the future …… I’ve tasted it!

Beavertown is owned by Heineken, not really craft

I think 'Beavertown' call it craft, but there you go.

[Sausage]

Either £4 or £5 (depending on ABV) for a cracking pint at my local in Petts Wood (Kent/SE London). Usually at least six ales on the go, with the board changing daily.

Someone earlier in the thread mentioned government tax. Pint for pint, petrol is about a third of the cost of beer. Crackers.

Can't be doing with all this real ale crap, decent pint of worthies 3.80 in my gloucester local

[AmbleClaret]

Lovely pint of Moorhouses or guest ale £3.60 in either Bridge Inn at Higherford or Rising Sun at Blacko.

Rising Sun at Blacko, my idea of the perfect pub.

[Longsidebovril]

Met up with some old mates in Wrexham last week. Got 4 pints for under £12!

[Bosscat]

Paying £4.20 for Moorhouses Premier at the moment in't Maypole Inn assuming its still on

[longsidetrumpet]

Crooked Billet Worsthorne, Reedley Hallows Billet Blonde and their New Zealand Pale, £3 IF you pay cash, £3.20 on a card. That’s a new wheeze introduced this week. Also, I quite like Neck Oil

[Quicknick]

Real ale? I prefer a lager frenzy.

[Rileybobs]

Neck Oil or similar is about £6.50 per pint in Leeds city centre. Kirkstall Virtuous at my local on Guiseley is about £5.80 but every 10th drink is free with a loyalty card.

[fidelcastro]

Buy from the supermarket or off-licence.

It's cheaper and when you drink it you can avoid people too.

[Clovius Boofus]

We call in the Miners from time to time, but I'm not too keen on clubs. Give me a well-run pub any day of the week, even if the ale is more expensive.

[Longsidelenny1882]

A few pubs might just follow the billet idea utc

[claret222]

I'm in southern California. Pint of Guinness $7 during happy hour, $9 after 7pm. A couple of Irish run pubs do a decent pint.

[chipbutty]

Here in Benslmadena some bars are still serving pints of Mahou/San Miguel/Victoria etc at €1.50 a pint (£1) whilst the norm is around €2.0 a pint (£1.33). I quite often drink bottles of Mahou which is about €1.5 a bottle (£1.0). A pint of John Smiths or Guinnesd varies from €3-4..
The prices here vary massively from the area and location of the bar. English owned bsrs tend to be much cheaper than other natiinalities.

Can I exchange my money where you go please?

£1.00 = €1.50? You're lucky to get 1 euro 12 to the pound these days

You are absolutely right, that's what happens when you try and do mental arithmatic when you are not very good at it . The price of s local pint should be from £1.30 to £1.75, which is still very cheap when I read some of the crazy prices being quoted on here.

[boatshed bill]

One of my favourite bars has craft beers at up to £10 a pint. I like them, 2 nice pints is better than 5 crap ones.

A fan of Flithy Rich and Catflap?

[Funkydrummer]

It must be a sign of the times when 4.5% ABV is classed as a session beer !!!!

[Clovius Boofus]

One good thing is that you now come across more craft beers that are under 5% than you used to. But I agree, 4.5% isn't a session beer, at least not in my book. I'd say beers around 4.2% and under are session.

[Jamesy]

In the craft beer world 4.5% is a session beer. However, a session on craft usually involves drinking a few less than a session on cask.

Do you live in Benalmadena? we`ve just bought a holiday home in Orihuela Costa, some great drinks prices near us.
Can fill up on red wine at local supermarket for 1 euro 50 a litre!

[Vino blanco]

I actually live in Torrequebrada which is just outside Benalmadena going towards Fuengirola. We have lived here full time for 11 years, though we owned properties in the area for some 40 years. So, after retiring and our kids having flown the nest we decided to give a go full time: we have been here ever since. During the first 6 years I kept my season ticket and used to fly back regularly to get about 10 games a season. Since Covid, however, I haven't been back that often.

[NewClaret]

Beavertown is owned by Heineken, not really craft

I didn’t know this until recently. Think they were privately owned once but hoping now Heineken own them there might be a hope we get it at the Turf as we only seem to deal with giants.

Poretti, which is on the beer jet I think (as a lager), and neck oil as an IPA would be a pair of decent options.

[Garnerssoap]

Revolutions can be planned in the pub by the working man unfettered by state influence. They don’t want you in them.
I miss the Rifle Volunteers
