I know, it's insane £1.50.
Five years ago I was happy to pay £2.00 a pint for it because it was so hard to find a pub that sold it.
But my local had it as a guest ale about 5-6 years ago ----and it's still on !!!!!!!
Yes, "Old Peculiar" was a guest ale at my local, but for some crazy reason it proved to be unpopular, so they did not try it again. It is hard to understand people some times, I mean, not liking "Old Peculiar" that is strange.
One of the local breweries around here is the West Berkshire Breweries and they make a good one called "Good Old Boy", it is not bad but can be a bit heavy at times, but because of the price of the ales I tend to go for the cheaper at £2.40 which is Boddingtons. And yes I know it is not a patch on some of the others, but it is good being able to get 2 pints for a fiver and still get some change.
Sorry Jasper but I am going to have to upset you now, I am going to the pub tomorrow (sorry today!!) and they have Exmoor beast on
It's a bit dear £1.59
But I'll still pay it
£1.59!!! keep on like that I will be coming down there asap. for a few jars LOL. You are paying the same as they charge in the working mens clubs in the north east, it's not bad that.
It was terrible, a tragedy, the end of the world
I went in on saturday and OP had gone UP!!!
Old Peculiar £1.59
Exmoor Beast £1.69
I was so
ed I only had 5 pints
GRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!! and I paid £9.60 just for 4 pints of Boddingtons.
Now you obviously a pint so you know how I feel. It's a rip off.
Here in France I really miss a pint of Wadsworths 6X like I used to enjoy cruising the British canal system.

A fine beer
We had that on tap about 6 months ago
Don't get around to drinking too many beers but I prefer Guinness, don't know if that falls under the same category though.
Also, Miller Genuine Draft, I'm from Milwaukee, what can you expect?
Miller High Life is insanely cheap here and great for parties
Gin and tonic anyone?
Though I prefer whiskeys...
Guiness is good.
Nothing beats an ice cold Molson Canadian on a hot day though.

You had better enjoy while you can Kota' , you won't be able to afford much whiskey soon
Yeah... gonna have to work my butt off
I like a good whiskey as well, but I do not buy a malt very often I usually go for a bottle of Grants or if I fancy a malt maybe Mcallen od The Glen Livet.
But back to the beer, I think it went up 1p in the Budget but it has actually gone up 10p. Now where is the justice in that, I wonder? It gives the impression they are wanting to kill the trade off.
