Re: The weird workings of pricing alcohol in bars/pubs
Bottles will always cost more because yo are also paying for disposable packaging. When you have a pint you (normally) give the glass back so it doesn't really cost the bar anything. the same goes with the barrels of booze which are returned to the brewery and reused. Whether or not this extra cost requires such a dramatic price difference I am not sure. £3 is a ****ing rip-off and so is £2.80 for a pint. Just get pissed before you go out.
