Beer Prices in Hyndburn
 

My local club has just put up its prices again, this time 20p per pint. Joh Smiths smooth is now £2.50 a pint and lager is £2.75. Is there any pub more expensive than this. Which is Hyndburn's cheapest and dearest pint. My local club is Platt Social Club in Accrington

Is this thread was about local beers prices? So what has the price of Foster's budgie urine and J Smith's snot got to do with it?

Re: Beer Prices in Hyndburn

Makes petrol look cheap (but it doesn't taste very nice)

Re: Beer Prices in Hyndburn
 

£2.95 for Stella in swan !!!!

Re: Beer Prices in Hyndburn
 

Real Ale is £2.40 a pint in the Peel Park.

I wouldn't drink the pasteurised muck that is badged as "smooth" if it were 50p a pint.

Rishton working mens guiness £2.20 john smiths £1.90

Re: Beer Prices in Hyndburn
 

Cask in the Workmen's Club usually hovers around the £1.60 mark, when it's on. Malcolm keeps his cellar very well too.

Con Club isn't bad on price but it's the best part of £6 for a couple of pints at either The Roebuck or The Walmsley Arms. Pity really because the Wam is a good pub.

Kronenbourg is £2.70 in the Queens, don't know the price of any of the others. Quite a nice pub as well with friendly staff.

Re: Beer Prices in Hyndburn
 

What I can't understand is why people pay so much a pint for what is basically 95% water, and then moan about the price of petrol.

Retlaw.

Re: Beer Prices in Hyndburn
 

Perhaps cos ales a pleasure. Petrol a necessity?

Re: Beer Prices in Hyndburn
 

Maybe, but compare the production methods of the two, and then justify the price of ale.

Retlaw.

Re: Beer Prices in Hyndburn
 

I think that if you compare the amount of tax/duty on both alcoholic drinks and petrol/diesel you will see what the true cost is.
They are all looked on as "cash cows" by whichever party is in Government.

Re: Beer Prices in Hyndburn
 

Think the Calder now takes the most expensive pint in Hyndburn crown - £4.20 or something ridiculous for a Peroni! Madness.

Re: Beer Prices in Hyndburn
 

Same problem, they have little choice. I spend far more time and money in the clubs around the borough (Rishton Workmen's and Con plus the excellent one on Sydney Street) which tend to be just over half of what I would pay in a pub. It's a shame because I want to support the pubs but can't afford to as much as I would like.

Blame the breweries and management companies, they charge twice as much for tied houses as they do for the same barrel to a free house. Of course they can always blame successive governments for tax increases and people will believe it but when you look closely at that argument it holds very little water.

Anybody who pays that is wrong in the tiny mind:confused:

Re: Beer Prices in Hyndburn
 

Fosters £2.40 in Sydney St and a good pint it is.....

Re: Beer Prices in Hyndburn
 

Don't remember now but i think it was around £1.80 for a pint of 'alpine' from the greyhound... Oh the greyhound; don't expect anything other that Samuel Smith in there :D

Re: Beer Prices in Hyndburn
 

You mean the one with the pump that looked like a collection box when it was called Ayingerbrau?

Lethal stuff, used to be known as 'Wifebeater' in my local.

Re: Beer Prices in Hyndburn

Ayinger, South Germany, Bavarian Brewery, approximately 25 km south-east of Munich. Standard Beer strength 4.9% that's not taking into account their specials which are markedly stronger. A typically picture postcard picturesque place & the Brew I remember the most is "Frühlings Bier" (Spring Beer), probably something to do with the romantic label the bottle carried. ;) :D
