Just curious.

I haven't been in a pub for yonks. So I'm a bit out of touch with pub prices.
I much prefer to have a quiet whisky at home of a weekend.
In another thread on here (Discussing vacations in the Canaries) someone said a pint of beer costs around a tenner where they live. Yikes! Don't know where that is though. Much dearer than the 1 euro the Canaries were getting praise for.

So what's the price of a pint these days?
 
Coors in my local pub is £4.20 a pint, Craft beer type stuff somewhere a bit nicer is anything from just under a fiver up to about a tenner for the more specialist stuff, but mostly under £6.

Depends on the sort of place you're going to as much as the region. The local Wetherspoons it's £3 or £4 for a pint of typical big brand lager. Go somewhere that markets itself as a craft ale micro brewery or something and it can be double that.
 
£5-£6 generally wherever I go in the south.

I can only imagine £10 pints are common in posh bits of central London .

At the pub across the road (local, albeit rather large brewery owned), a pint of Guinness is £5.60. A pint of their own bitter is £3.90.

Half a mile away in the town centre, there's a few pubs, including a wetherspoons, where a pint of Guinness is £2.90 and a pint of cask is also less than £3.

Manchester city centre varies massively. There's a number of traditional pubs where you can get a pint for less than £4...then there's also lots of 'trendier' places where you can easily spend £7 on a pint.
 
Going rate for half a litre of local draught beer is €5 which is about double what it would cost to buy 0.5l of the same basic “bière blonde“ in a supermarket.
 
£5 - £6 in Newcastle city centre.
More locally can probably get £4 a pint in the Spoons or places when they have an offer on.
 
Local spoons Stowford press cider £2.30 odd

Moretti in local Italian restaurant £5.50
 
I basically don't go out anymore, if I do it'll be in Wetherspoons where you can get a pint about £3.

They dirty old man beer like Greene king is still like £1.50 a pint, but I'll drink Hazy Jane or Oakham's Citra.

Actually you can get a double Bells whisky and coke for like £2.
 
£5-6 here for most of the mainstream stuff. We have a small brewery opened up local which is doing very well so we tend to down there now.

Answer to your question, where I live is in Switzerland. In one of the most expensive cities in the world. Hence 10CHF for a pint which is about £9.

Currently visiting family in my home town of Oldbury, West Midlands. Weatherspoons prices here.

Guinness - £3.32
Carling - £3.39
Most expensive is Leffe at £4.28

Always happy to get the round in when here lol

Very much depends on the beer.
A pint of Steady Rolling Man (one of the best IPAs in the country) is about £6-7.
But stronger double IPAs can be anywhere up to £10-15 a pint (not that you’d buy a pint as they’re about 8% or so.
 
Anywhere between £5 for a generic lager in a Working Men’s club to £7.20-ish for something nice in a ***** gastro-pub in London.
 
Brighton, between £4-7.50 depending on what you're drinking and when.

Naff 4% lager at happy hour will be £4, an average pint normally will be £5-6 and a decent craft beer, usually 6.5%+ will be £7-7.50.
