Price of a beer on your hols this year.

Ok as we near the end of the holidays what price did you all pay for a pint when you were away.

Cheapest ? Dearest ?

I was getting a pint of Efes for £1 in North Cyprus.

I’ve heard a few things about North Cyprus, and cheap beer! Really need to go at some point!

I went to Corfu in June and it was 4 euro for a pint of Efes!

not beer, but the missus and I were in Skiathos this summer, house wine (Greek) was only €6 for half a litre in restaurants. I like my wine, the red Greek stuff was very drinkable. Considering you easily pay more than that in Cardiff for just a glass, it was excellent. Always had good value in the Greek islands

Paid £5.50 a pint at the top of a mountain in Swiss Alps 7500ft asl, same price as on our campsite at 1500ft asl.

I thought that was reasonable as it was the local draught at 4.8%.

The one Euro stuff imo is disgusting in Spain.

If you want a common UK brand then it's anything from £2.60 to £3.2 a pint.

Wow where were you drinking I go to Krackow a few times a year as my partner is from there Even on the square i only pay 12 to 16 ZL for a beer and for 16 Zl that for a litre and not a pint. So that is about £3 However as you say go off the square and you will pay a lot less around half the price

I’m in Portugal not Spain and yes it’s disgusting. I’d much rather pay €5 a beer like the guy in Magaluf.
