Walked the dog last night together with eldest daughter, a pleasant evening so we stopped at a pub, a beer for me, lemonade for her and crisps to share. Very nice indeed however the pint cost me £4.10!
So - how much, what, where -
£4.10

Hertford, Hertfordshire
'bout £3 in the nicer pubs round here.
Very much depends on the ale, but anywhere from around £3 - £4:50 ish
I was charged £9.60 for 2 pints of Peroni in Manchester last month. By a man who I suspected to be a member of Mumford and Sons. This hasn't helped my loathing of Mumford and Sons
Nearer to home, its considerably less
£2.10 for the finest ale known to man 😉
You [i]pay [/i] for beer?
In the local 3.30, which I consider pricey.

Peroni is always a silly prices by the pint in bars. Its £5 a go around here (St Andrews).
Ale is between £2.80 and £3.80 depending on the pub and the ale in question.
ussually upwards of £2.50 though some locals a bit cheaper, odd pubs take the piss and charge £3 so we don't go there often.
£3.00 ish for a post ride pint on a Monday night, but the first one does't usually touch the sides.
Do not like paying more than £3.
£2.60 - 2.90 depending on tipple
£3.50-£3.90 in N. London.
Paid £3.75 for a pint of Peroni last night in Ringley.
Didn't last long as I'd just done 20 miles on the bike.
It was bloody lovely though.
£3 for ale across the board in the Hunters' Lodge (Mendip) ATM, but elsewhere ~3.20. £4.0+ in Bristol
The real ale pubs I frequent charge £3.00-£3.50 ish on the Hampshire Hills, that London and its about £3.50-£4.00 so not a massive difference.
£3.10

About £6 here in Copenhagen
€6.80 per pint of something like Punk ipa which as near as we get to real beer in San Sebastian. €6.00 for Bombardier when I'm in Bordeaux. No real ale at all, apart from the odd bottle conditioned one.
£9.30 for a Guinness and a Mean Time pale ale in London’s leafy SW London last saturday. I’m used to London prices and rarely even notice but that seemed a little excessive.
£2.55 for mild (my usual tipple) and £2.65 for bitter in my local (Robinson's) Pub. The new Iron Maiden "Trooper" ale was a frankly horrific £3.25 a pint, but it was very nice so I did have plenty.
Approx £2.50, 10p or so more for the stronger stuff 🙂

90p a litre - Philippines 🙂
Never thought i'd say this but £3.75 for a pint of imported lager (Peroni) is not three bad as opposed to the same for a pint of Stella which is brewed 'under license' (and weaker) and tastes like it's gonna give you hangover half way down.
£2.60 for Robbies Bitter
Trooper" ale was a frankly horrific £3.25
Is daylight robbery...£2.80 in my local.
I want to know where [i]allthepies[/i] drinks!!
£3.40 for Bath Ales Gem in my local.
Anywhere between £3.80 and £4.80 for a strictly average tasting pint but then i do live in surrey now... 😐
£2-£2.80ish
Sheffield
3.30 - 3.50 per pint.
The Republic of Brightonia
Around €1.40 for 20omls of Koelsche in Koeln
so around €4.20 a pint ...

Private members club innit 😛
The annual beer festival is a thing of beauty.
Ale is £4+ a pop but I find most of it pretty undrinkable down here in Teddinton. Being from the frozen north I like a good pint but im unable to quench my thirst with a goodly ale around these parts, reluctantly resorted to lager at around a fiver .
Sorry - but nothing comes close to a decent NORTHERN pint ..
Last night, in surburban Manchester I paid £4.10 for a pint of Eckinsomething on draught.
That was my last pint at that place (Marble). Pity but the stale farts and overpriced lagers and their own stuff thats been steadily going downhill have switched me off.
Theres another place called Horse and jockey- its full of credit-card living wannabe Didsbury-types and that place is ridiculously priced.
As a rule if a pint of ale is over £3.50 I wont return there again.
About £3.20-£4.50 depending on what pub and what ale.
(Plymouth)
A pint of doombar is about £3.70 in my local, in Hertfordshire.
About £3.60 for a pint of Adnams Broadside (which is without fear of contradiction the very best ale in the land) here in Suffolk, the home of Adnams - or about £3.20 Adnams Bitter, Greene King IPA or most other basic bitters..........far too much, and I notice the difference when I'm in the North West for work. A cracking pint in Bolton costs £2.50 or so, and there are some for under £2. Perhaps this begins to make up for the pay imbalance bias towards the South East........?
I'm reading this in Chamonix and I am sickeningly jealous of everyone who can buy an actual pint for less than about 7 quid.
No ale down my way, it's all lager 🙁
My local's about about 2€/pint, were pints available. Nice and sunny and right next to the swimming pool, too. So it's not all bad.
£3 to £3.50 for real ale in the Bath / Mendip area
£2.00 to £3.00. Anything over £3.00 and I start moaning.*
*I’m from Yorkshire.
Im thirsty now!
No decent pubs where I live and bro-in-law is a brewer, so I drink at home mainly. If I'm drinking whilst out/at mates etc it's generally £2.50-£3 in Manchester/South Pennines. There are a few places further afield where I (happily) pay more than that but those are 'destination pubs' that sell craft beers from micro breweries or rare imports.
4 euros for half a litre at the bar. 6 bottles of the same stuff for 3.50 euros at the supermarket.
The blokes at the pub do a lovely croque monsieur tho so I'm prepared to forgive them
Re Chamonix..
What tickled me when I was in Morzine at Bar Robinson, all the Brits were nailing mega-expensive pints down whilst I drank glasses of red there for 1.50e 😆
Cider, generally £3.90 to £4.30 in the New Forest. Much cheaper when visiting the Quantocks - Cheddar Valley at £2.80 in Nether Stowey 😀
Hmm, moaning about the price of beer when living in Herts. It's commuter belt, I bet it was a nice country pub in a pleasant village, or at the very least on the edge of town so the smoking ban has forced it to push prices in the hope of attracting diners rather than old-soak drinkers.
If it was a nice place then it's not really too expensive, it it was a dive and badly kept beer then fair enough.
Times are tough, beer is a luxury you don't have to buy and when you do the people buying it are also trying to make a profit rather than just survive.
Cambridge area varies wildly, Wetherspoons £2 max. Nicer pubs in the area of town just under £4 a pint. Out of town £3.50 - £3.90 for an decent pint.
