Wow,that is cheap!
Priciest was the two quid for a small beer in a nightclub in Soho in 1978 which, related to my rent (in Fulham) which was 7 quid a month, is the equivalent of about 400 quid.
Cheapest was either 50p for a glass of champers (or sorts) in a bar Prague back in the days of communism, or the 17p I paid for a pint of Watney's Special in the Mill House in Portslade in 1973. Lovely, it was

Most expensive pint - four quid, last time I visited Sussex. Round here it ranges from a couple of quid a pint to about £3.50 or £3.60 (mostly nearer the latter). The cheapest, I believe, is usually found in 24 hour petrol stations with a 24 hour drinks licence, and goes under the name of White Lightning*.

For “everyday” bars I think Mikkeller is the most expensive at between 6 and 8 euros for a .3 glass. Wetherspoon is the cheapest. I have paid some higher prices for some beers though, a small can of Mikkeller Nelson Sauvin Cru cost me £10.50 In Birmingham.

A wonderful rite of passage. I think we got off lightly paying something like £25 each for our glasses of "champagne"...

Dunno. Town Wall and Forth you'll spend 4 quid plus for a pint of whatever. Did only pay 1.99 in spoons though for a pint of ale. Bottle of brown at the ice rink is 3.30

Ha ha. I can guess who you’re talking about!
Are any of these gin based cocktails? If so I might try one myself.
Some years ago I paid 13p for a pint in a bar in Slovakia, this was when beer was about £1.50 at home. So - the equivalent of around 30p today I would think. Odd bar - in a small village miles from anywhere else, with a TV showing Czechoslovakia v Switzerland. Czechoslovakia scored - and the three old blokes at a rickety table just sort of grunted. That was their only display of excitement. It was in 1991, just after the countries had separated from each other - so I wondered whether it was something to do with not supporting a united team. Bit like some areas of France where the national team is considered to be 'that team in Paris'.

Not seen such Bravery!
Years ago Tetley bitter was 60p a pint in yorkshire.
I have found that over the last few years - no matter where I am in the country - that it seems to have gone up.

In what is now the Jurys Inn I was at a function and had 1 bottle of Bud and a glass of house white. It was loud so had a tenner ready, not enough, offered £15 and got some pennies change.
Ale in the Auctioneer (formally a Wetherspoons) Blackpool is always sub £2 pint.

You went to Shoreham and of all the pubs you chose Swiss Cottage? Bizarre.
Anyway, I pay £2.39 for a pint of IPA, also in Shoreham but nowhere near the SC.
Priciest pints I can recall have all been in Brighton. £5.90 for a Guiness but can't recall where. Possibly the Coach house.
