How much???

[L Austin France]

According to Tim Martin, the boss of Wetherspoons, the price of a pint could possibly rise to £10.
Blimey! when I was still living in England you could get 4 pints & change for a tenner.
Mind you it was 20 years ago

Another Brexit bonus!

In 1960 I could have bought 200 pints for a tenner. Bob a pint then !

I have no idea of the price of a pint now.

Crikey, I wasn't expecting all that, especially as I don't drink beer. And certainly wouldn't go near a Wetherspoon pub even if I was in the UK
Thanks anyway.

Those German prices are enough to make me go teetotal. Wouldn't pay those prices for a litre of posh wine. I suppose once you've had a few you don't notice how much money you are ******* up the wall.

In the news a number of UK brewers are practising shrinkflation involving watering down the beer:

see: https://www.grocerygazette.co.uk/2023/0 ... cut-costs/

So I suspect one would need fewer glasses of German beer than UK beer to achieve a certain alcohol threshold.

Those prices are tourist Oktoberfest prices.

Pauliner - which is a beer I regularly drank back in Germany - around €3.40/l bottled when bought by the crate. To be fair that is a lot more that I was paying 10 years ago but that is inflation and the impact of Russia's transgressions.

Err, not much "posh" wine at those prices even in a 75cl bottle.
