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

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.

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.

Re: Beer Prices in Hyndburn
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.

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

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.
