vinyl Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 20 cans of carling for only a tenner at asda,and people wonder why the good old fashioned pub is on its last legs,if the brewery's were as generous with publicans then maybe we wouldnt see so many decent pubs in sheffield closed down But 95% of the pubs aren't owned by breweries anyhow and as drinking habits change people are drinking more in cafebars which are springing up all over town. If I was drinking Carling I probably would be sitting on a park bench supping it from a can. Asda can't supply a decent pint on hand pulled ale. My local serves very good beer from a dozen hand pumps. They don't sell Carling either. Do we care? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slick rick73 Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 the pubs are too expensive. I've just been for a few pints and they were charging £3.25 for a pint of stella. I've come back home now and picked myself up 4 pints of stella for a fiver from the shop. I don't normally do this sort of thing but it is the last day of my holiday so i thought, what the hell!!

theripsaw Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 When everything else is getting more expensive lets not moan about beer being too cheap. Just accept it, or buy a more expensive brand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melv Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 Try going into the Sheaf View, Sheffield Tap, Kelham Island Tavern, The Fat Cat & The Greystones. Cheap beer & lager doesn't seem to be killing their trade!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
