people who perpetually say the following:
I'm not being racist but...
They're just being PC ( followed by a sneer)
It's health and safety gone mad
Everythings so expensive nowadays its ridiculous!
Four quid a pint?! You know its cheaper to drink at home??
Things where a lot safer back then.

Where/what are you drinking FFS?

every independent pub in brighton, london and in and around the south east.
And still creeping up in price.

You must drink some poncey fizzy rubbish. I've NEVER paid that in either Lomdon or Brighton.

( Amorous Badger NAKED BEA ARTHUR PHOTOS 4U, Sat 14 Apr 2012, 18:30, closed)

its gone up three times in the last year.
Local ale- roughly 3.60, fosters/strongbow 3.40, Guinness- 3.80 and tiger/asahi/red stripe- 4.00. This is Brighton and last year I recall londoners saying a round was 'cheap'

£1.90 a pint at my local :DDD

I've never paid more than £3.50 for a pint of anything. Hopefully this won't change when moving to Edinburgh, I've heard city life costs more.

Yep
I remember paying that in Brighton and I've moved to Cambridge where it's the same price. £4 a pint really isn't unusual any more.

You're drinking
in the wrong Brighton pubs. There's one round the corner from me has four good real ales in rotation for £2.70 a pint

evidently it stood on a bucket and stuck its head through a fence to get some hay.
And the bucket slipped. my uncle dug a hole in the ground to bury the poor thing and it kept letting out the most monstrous farts

And here's me complaining about the exorbitant

$2.20 for a 2kg. bag of raw sugar that makes about 30 L. of beer. Fuck That!

works out at about 40p a pint :D

Does it taste any good? Someone I know did that and it tasted like drain-water or thereabouts.

About a year old now - 1 crate left.
The hygrometer told me it's specific gravity was near on 7% when I bottled it so you'll be cabbing it home.

Very nicely done then
where does one acquire the mystical ingredients? All the kits I've seen are the ones that taste like said drain water. But if there was a quality alternative to the pub-bought rip-offs then I would invest in all likelyhood

To be honest I wouldn't know, I usually just hand over a £20 put any notes back in my wallet and use any pound coins in the jukebox and or quiz machine.

But it's still lager
What you wanna do is get into proper ales - there's nothing quite like picking the weevils out of a pint of Old Nun's Discharge
( shinyshinyscalp less a man, more a way of life, Mon 16 Apr 2012, 13:16, closed)

The problem there is that many licensees don't seem to realise it has a finite shelf life,
so by the time you order it it's invariably gone off and you end up paying £2-3 for a rancid pint of heartburn.

This is why I stick to Stella if I go out drinking. It's got more flavour than most lagers, and they can't fuck it up.
