I am not going to spend £6 for a pint when I need electricity, gas supply etc. I just can't afford it and I am sure I am not alone.

The treasury will take about a pound of that.

They keep jacking up the prices here too. It's a conspiracy to limit free thought. They poison the mind of the youth against alcohol too.

Government social engineering, for sure. Your lives are not yours anymore people. The government owns you and all you do. Once they finish with alcohol they'll move onto something else and demonise that. Maybe caffine next?

It is strange when you think there are so many of us, and so few of them.

I wonder how much more we will take before we react.

I can get a 32oz. of Miller, the champagne of beers, for $1.72 with tax less than a mile from here. $10 for a pint is inhuman.

At a bar $2 before tip, maybe $3. This needs to be pinned.

If you want to see a revolution in America, charge ten dollars for a beer. The place would be a fucking cinder by morning.

Export American beer to Europe? Every belgian that's ever died is doing kick flips in their coffin. Americans do not make great beer en mass, we make cheap beer.
