Imy country, starting in the super market you can get a 500 mlt metal container for 0.5 Euro and they can "skin you regaly" in expensive Bars.
Naturaly microbrew is usualy more expensive.
May you always enjoy your beer!
Cheers!!!

Lidl is in England also? :o ...btw, I know the "middle aisle"-problem really good, just yesterday they nearly got me to buy a pair of shoes and a complete bandgrinder ... fortunately, I managed to get out
I go in for milk and come out with kinder chocolate, a sewing machine and a random sausage. They have some great food at Christmas too, spiced biscuits, those little round gingerbread cake things with chocolate.. Yum.
Think their cheap beer brand is Excalibur here.

Would that be known as Red Hook also? I love that stuff. It usually goes for the same price here. I like my beers a little more potent than domestics, which leaves microbrews. The Pacific NW has lots of good breweries, and a lot of what's in the beer ailses are local products. Mactarnahan's is my favorite after Guiness and Urquell. It goes for $7 normally. The other 2 go for $8 or so, which is why I don't go for them often.
Now in bars here, it's about $4 a pint. That's why I don't go there that often unless it's happy hour

Hi Virilis,
Sam Adams, the local microbrew beer here in Boston, MA, USA (local for me because I live up the street from the brewery) goes for about $6-7 for a six pack of 12 ounce bottles. Other microbrews range from $5 to about $12 a six. At my local tavern brews from the major breweries (Bud, Miller, etc.) go for about $2.50-3 a pint. Microbrews and imports range from $4.50-5.50 a pint. Larger bottles, such as Sam Smith's (22oz I think) are correspondingly more expensive. These prices are about the same at other taverns in the neighborhood.
Cheers!

Well, I don't buy beer in bottles, so I don't know the prices here. But in a pub you can get good Czech beer usually around 1 Euro for 0,5 l. 8)

I normally buy at a small, local brewery close by, Weissbier (wheat beer) costs 13.- euros /crate (=20x 0.5l bottles), so that would be 0.65 euros per bottle. Cheap ordinary beer can be had for less than half of that.
For half a liter in a pub you pay around 2.50 - 3.- euros outside Munich.

The beer-prices of your countries makes my head spin hock: ... Well, I will go to Estonia to buy some good, affordable beer. It is considered to be the most low-class act here in Finland but what the heck!
I am a re-enactor & used to people laughing at me :wink: ...

Hey that sounds like the European version of what people do here! lol: Because taxes on alcohol are different from state to state, the cost of liquor can really vary quite a lot. New Hampshire, which borders Massachusetts to the north sells liquor for less money so lots of people go across the border to buy. When I lived in Connecticut, which borders Mass. on the south, we used to go across the border because the liquor stores were open until 10:45 pm. In Conn. they closed a lot earlier.
If beer is so expensive, what do people commonly drink in Finland? Hard liquors, wine?
Cheers!
