Bollocks.
24 can crates will be at least £35 you never see that even on premium lagers.

I never buy 24 can crates of premium lager.
The beer I buy roughly has an average of 2.5 units per bottle.
I'd be more than willing for the price to drop to £1.13/bottle.

Horse burgers.

Your maths is fucking shocking.
That would make a 24 crate of Fosters/Carling about £19 and a 24 crate of Stella about £24.

Or, about exactly what it costs unless its on offer.

I'm a bit scared of questioning your massive scientific brain, but I worked it out as:
Stella = 5%
5x £0.45 = £2.25
24x £2.25 = £54

5% doesn't mean 5 units...

(PsychoChomp, Wed 13 Mar 2013, 10:17, Reply)

You are absolutely correct and I feel such a fool now.

Prick

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Wed 13 Mar 2013, 10:18, Reply)

It's priced per unit.
A can of fosters (440mL) is 1.8 units, a can of Stella 2.3

So, for a slab, either 1.8x0.45x24=£19.44 or 2.3x0.45x24=£24.84.

Yes, I knew I was wrong to question you.
I'll try to pay proper attention next time.
( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Wed 13 Mar 2013, 10:20, Reply)

No, you were right to question me.
always question, tangles. I'm usually talking shit. you were just unlucky this time. even a stopped clock is right twice a day etc etc

I was using this
www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-21766309
But when it said "strong lager" I though it meant 5.2%ish rather than the 7.9% special brew it's mentioned.
(PsychoChomp, Wed 13 Mar 2013, 10:17, Reply)

Ah, right you are.
Yeah, a slab of spesh is gonna be about £35.

But frankly, if you're drinking that ol' purple tin you've got much bigger problems than the cost, my friend.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Wed 13 Mar 2013, 10:20, Reply)

Never even tried it to be honest.
Most the beer I drink is homebrew so it doesn't matter to me. My main problem is that the government has got more important things to do.

They're being told by the NHS to do it
It's a shower of bollocks, but at least they are listening to someone other than themselves and Eton bankers for once.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Wed 13 Mar 2013, 10:24, Reply)

Only because they wrongly think that it could save them some money and make the NHS budget cuts less crippling.

(PsychoChomp, Wed 13 Mar 2013, 10:25, Reply)

I agree it's arsegravy of the highest order
but listening to someone they should listen to is a tiny bit of progress.

Special Brew in bottles, super-ice cold, is actually nice, THERE I'VE SAID IT

It's better than Tennants Super
in the same way that losing a leg to a shark is marginally better than losing a leg to a crocodile.
