would you ....
.... drink a lower strength beer to save 60p ....
BBC NEWS | UK | Magazine | Mine's a half...
Beer activists are calling on the government to scrap tax on brews made with just 2.8% alcohol. But would drinkers sup a weaker pint for the sake of 60p?
Probably depends if you like it or not .. but still if its lower strength you could probably have an extra one of them and not go over the driving limit ..
Doesnt bother me anyway ..my drink only costs 50p for half

Re: would you ....
Never could understand the concept of light beer .... but if it's cheaper, some might go for it .... what confuses me is why people buy lite beer for the same price as the real stuff .... pay the same price for less of what you want! I mean, no one goes to the pot dealer and says: "I want some marijuana lite; none of that bud crap, just give me shake and seeds .... and, I want to pay the same price." If you want beer that is like making love in a canoe, move to America.
