Price of a pint?

[pubrunner]

Talking of pints, how many pubs still serve ale in a 'dimple' mug ?

. . . I've not seen one in a pub, for ages. (Though I use one at home)

They've suddenly come back in hereabouts (London). After maybe 20 years with none in sight, most pubs round here now offer them.

don't like dimple mugs, prefer a straight glass

I got one at home but I had to order it online.

no such thing as a decent pint in Stornoway, about £3/pint for tennants

My students day it was Banks mild for 34p pint or Pedigree for 40p/pint (I feel old)

13p for a pint of Adnams in the college bar in 1973. Very happy days. Twenty seven pence for twenty Rothmans too.

£1.90 for a pint of chemical stuff stuff in the nearby WMC or £2.50 for a pint of real ale in the nearby pub.

I got served in a "dimple mug" (isn't it called a jug in beer glass parlance or did I make that up?) is London just before Xmas. Currently having a large bottle of La Rue of approx 80pence in Hanoi.

The Fox and Anchor in Farringdon serves beer in dimple pots...cheapest beer I can remember was when I started playing cricket. 1/10d for a pint of Watneys draught. Not Red Barrel or anything posh!
There was always this too:

Mmmmm heaven. Ideal for hiding in the oven at parties. Goodness, I've drunk some rubbish in my lifetime!
The Euston Flyer, opposite St Pancras is pretty expensive £4.60 or so...

£2.10 for a Pint of Little John brewed in the back of the Robin Hood, Pontefract.

£1.82 ....pint bitter (not wherspoons) samuel smiths

Our local Sam Smiths charge £1.94 for a pint of their bitter. The first time I went in, I bought a pint and a half and I assumed they hadn't charged me for the half, it was so cheap.

Does that qualify under the 'decent beer' stipulation?

5% alc. Very palatable stuff!

The OP rules this comment is crap!

Then the OP should have been more specific in the thread title
I don't touch the stuff (beer that it, quite like milk..), so no idea if £4 a pint is good, bad or indifferent. Last time I was in a pub they wanted over £2 for a pint of Coke..

 

[Cycleops]

Whatever happened to those party cans? Remember Watneys red barrel, what dreadful p*ss it was!

In my local, the Mitre in Barnet, Ale is priced according to Strength, So Adnams Southwold is £3.20. Timothy Taylors Landlord for instance is £3.45. Abbot and ales over 5% are £ 3.50

About £3.60 for a decent pint of lager, £3.20 for decent bitter.... or it was last time i went to a pub. In fact, when was the last time i went to a pub?
