PINT PRICES SET TO BANKRUPT DRINKERS!

So here we are again, with the trade telling us that the price of a pint of the brown stuff will soon be- and we quote "Bloody Scary" and "pant fillingly scary" - so we decided to work it out (we don't normally bother with all this accounting stuff, if we've paid the bills and there's money left - it's ours....... )

Hops cost around 1p per pint, so if the price triples then that's 3p, malt costs around 6p per pint so if that increases by 50% the cost of producing a pint of beer will increase by 5p - so how do we get to the £4 pint? - answers on a postcard.............
