I nipped in the Admiralty on Trafalgar Sq last Saturday lunchtime for a swift one, expecting to get royally horsed for being in a) London, b) in a tourist hotspot, and c) generally daring to have a pint outside of my own home.

£6.50. I wasn't even mad. I thought it was even cheap given the above factors, even if it was Amstel.

In my local though, £4.10 for a pint of best or something similar.

Offtopic: I ordered two large blonde lattes at the local Starbucks, and it was £10.10. it's literally cheaper to go on the piss than drink average-but-decent coffee now.

Love a pint of Theakston, I warm mine up on the radiator for a bit(!) it really opens up the flavour.

A pint of lager is £5.60 in our local. A year ago it was £5.20.

£3.50

But that's just a small town pub, pretty much everyone in there will be a local they don't get a lot of tourists around here.

A few miles away, but in more touristy parts, you can easily pay over £5.

So the moral of the story is that you need to live in a boring back water like I do. Around here if somebody gets their roof retiled it's practically in the local paper.

my "local" is a tap room and mostly sells silly beers, I don't think it's pricing it a useful metric from pubs in general

10 AUD if you can get a special, 15 AUD otherwise. And maybe you get the place that doesn't do pints, only schooners but still charges pint prices for them.

3.8%? Is that what they call beer over there?

$8 USD
