Not familiar with there at all but an interesting price, right enough, even for people not overly bothered about the price of a good pint, such as yourself, I would hazard, and myself.
A friend visited two establishments in Limerick yesterday evening. Next door to each other, similar style and clientele. 5.20 v 5.50 for a pint of Guinness.
Tis past the âŹ5 anywhere Iâve been in Limerick lately. âŹ5.20 about the norm. I was talking to a bar owner lately and he was saying the big increase from Heiniken has fucked them because even the Beamish is âŹ4.50 now and that was keeping the bar flys going when it was cheap. He is city centre and said trade is flying, waiting for a slow down but no sign yet.
But he said costs are out of control and anyone who doesnât own their bar will be to the pin of the collar to keep going.
He reckoned if you were selling Guinness below a âŹ5 thereâd be no margin left
