Most youve ever paid for a pint?

kevthecelt

In the Sky bar in the Hyat Hotel in Tokyo i paid a scandalous 9 euro for a 'wine glass' of guinness

Ross_Mahon

I think about 6 euro was the most, but im sure there's a lot of fancy places out there ripping people off

prendy

thats gonna take some beating...my most is £5.5 in some london hotel.
thats bout 8 yo yos

Blisterman

€12 in a bar in paris.

Could have been worse. Next day, I went to a bar which was €18 a pint, but I'd made sure to ask the price before ordering.

Dick Turnip

€8 for a pint of kronenberg in a shopping centre in paris - horrendously hungover, needed it badly!

youcancallmeal

Paris here again for about 9euro in some random cafe near the eiffel tower. A friend who used to live there told me that a pint could be had for as cheap as 3euro in quieter 'locals' type bars on the outskirts of the city

Third_Echelon

€12 in Bergen, Norway.

EKRIUQ

I didn't but a friend did €16 in Denmark

truecrippler

Close to a tenner in a strip club next to the Liffey. Was Paddies day too.

Random

$12 in the Trump Tower bar. Should really have known better before we went in. It was piss too.

Ross_Mahon

I suppose we are the bigger idiots for buying drink at that price

Zaph

€11 in Paris, but at least it was on expenses.

TheMilkyPirate

€15 in ibiza.. Was langered, Too busy dancin and absolutley parchin.. Couldn't have cared less if it was a pint of water

Galvasean

€6.50 in Dublin

Still a rip off. :mad:

FlutterinBantam

Heh heh, thats why the OOirish are so lovable.

They love being ripped off,and then boast about it:cool:

jdivision

e14 in Copenhagen

JIZZLORD

cant really remember, though i once seen a place charging €4.50 for fosters

me and the biz

ha I thought €7 in Paris was bad. . guess I got off light

Mossy Monk

Got stung in a jazz bar in Paris. €12.50 for one pint of Kronenberg. It was damn tasty though even if it did last an hour and a half.

Rb

Lololol and there was Cormie only a few weeks ago trying to tell us how cheap France is compared to Dublin.

Don1

€18 for two 0.4l glasses of Kronenburg 1664 in gay Paris including a very measly tip.
View of the passing crowd (mainly hawt chicks) made it almost worth it though.

The Hill Billy

€25 for a bottle of Heineken in a bar in Germany. Turns out it wasn't a "bar" after all.

We were too drunk to notice the half-nekkid ladies sprawled around the place before we ordered.
We were also too drunk to argue with the rather large "security" men over the price.

Tis true. Not necessarily outskirts, even - just away from the obvious tourist traps. In general though, you're better off to steer away from beer...

Luckily the bar was closed when I was there, found a cheaper tipple elsewhere.

funk-you

I had a pint in there last year. I didn't realise it was as expensive as that, but it wasn't my round. I paid a lot less for the next round in whatever place it was.

Most expensive pint was £5.50 for one of those big heavy glasses (pint?) of Hoegaarden in the Castlefield area in Manchester. It was the first and last. Back onto the Guinness after that.

AckwelFoley

£20 here

I paid £20 for my mates pint.

I told my mate if he ate the urinal block from the toilet urinal in the pub id give him 20.

He did.

I had a nice pint. He had a blue mouth

KTRIC

Paid €15 for a beer in Copenhagen airport a couple of months ago. Didn't realise the price until after I started sipping.

A pint of water would be more expensive in the big clubs! I lived their for a couple of months last summer and my mate and i used to by a big bottle of water and hide it before going in then skip outside everytime we were thirsty! F/uck paying 10 brick for a tiny bottle of water!

Sounds great, 25 quid for a drink and a *insert your imagination here*.

Johnnio13

€72 for a round of 6 drinks in Paris hotel(bottles of heineken). Think I left my underpants there!!!

Bawnmore

bringing this thread back but only coz 22e for a pint in privilege, Ibiza 2 weeks ago! Shocked when she said the price but not in a state to run

Paid €9 for a beer in Kuala Lumpur

Supercell

So in summary...

Worst places in the world to plan a pissup :-

1) Paris
2) Denmark (anywhere it seems).
3) Yore ma's

Sherifu

I don't think i've paid more than 6 euro.

kowloon

I got myself wallet raped in Whelans last night, not sure of exact prices because it was a round but everything was well over a fiver.

Yep Denmark is ridiculous. I paid close to that in an "Irish" pub there. Went to a quieter place after and got one for 2.50. Best place ever, you could write on the walls.

allin-king

jaysus. Surely common sense would take over at that stage and you would pull off your shirt and say "here take the f*cking shirt off my back too while you're at it you c*nt".


Or maybe not :pac:


But seriously...thats pulling the piss to extremes. Id probably walk out.

RATM

Remember once sitting down at an outdoor 'restaurant' at the middle of a ski slope in Tignes, France. I was parched so rocked up with my board still on and sat down. Ordered a Coke and the surly waiter promptly came out with a pint of splash Coke ( the cheap 20c a litre stuff McDonalds use ) and demanded 11 euro.

Luckily for me I still had my snowboard on, I stood up, told him where to stick his 11 euro and booted it down the hill. I gave him a wave every time I passed him at speed over the next few days. Very satisifying:D

meditraitor

10€ for a pint of Tuborg last week in Milan. It was happy hour so all drinks 10 yoyo (including some cocktails worth a tenner) with FREE food.
Went on the Mojitos pretty quickly;)
