    Neither of my two local micros charge a sensible price.

    Perhaps the difference is I'm up north!

    a 4 % beer at £4.30
    a 4 % beer at £4.40
    a 3.5% beer at £4.40
    all cask
    are you tempted by those prices.

    I wouldn't be tempted by those prices but they're not bad for London and if I had to visit your local, I may gain a little in savings but I'd lose as much in travel. Was in the Charles Lamb last night and enjoyed some Hophead on good form at £4.20 which isn't bad, especially for N1.

    Not bad at all compared to the £ 4.70 I paid for a pint of Hophead in Esher recently.

    £3 a pint in my nearest micro pub, beer is always spot on. To be fair, I haven't been for a year or so though, so they may have crept up a bit since then.

    The £4+ pint is becoming quite common up here in Manchester though, especially in the city centre.

    Now that is reasonable.What annoys me is the overheads for that pub are massive whereas the micropubs near me are just basic shop conversions and should be able to sell beer cheaper than conventional pubs.
