One thing that struck me when assembling the table of the price of bottled beer was how bad value the new styles Extra, Edel-Bräu Hell, Deutsches Pilsner Spezial and Märzen were. Why not work out just exactly how bad value they were.Though not the worst value. That honour belongs to Doppel-Karamelbier. At least on the basis of price per ABV. Not a surprise, really, as it's a full-gravity beer with little alcohol.
The specialist beers Schwarzbier and Porter were also relatively poor value. Perhaps for the very reason that they were niche products.
Some the the best value were the most popular styles: Hell and Deutsches Pilsner. Though, a little surprisingly, Bockbier Hell just sneaks in as best value of all.
