    Precisely and did they try and justify this price rise?
    My local Spoons beer prices haven't changed for over a year.

    Yep, price of ingredients is down to but my suppliers all got in there with a pre-emptive price rise. I'm managing to keep my prices stable; and for a laugh have a jar of pennies customers can help themselves to if they mention the duty reduction

    I feel for you.
    In the past the breweries would always blame the budget for having to put their prices up every year. The fact that they can't do that means they can't winge about it but STILL raise their prices. These are the same people that bang on endlessly about people drinking supermarket beer killing their trade. What a load of hypocrites!!
