Brits are set to pay more for a round as the cost of a pint is due to rise by 21p, making the average pint now £5.01 amid a whole host of cost increases linked to October's budget
The average price of a pint of beer in the UK is set to rise by 21p to £5.01 due to cost increases linked to the October budget, potentially impacting pubs' survival. Brewery research indicates this price increase from the average of £4.80 is needed. This follows closures of 300 bars and 4,500 job losses. Beer prices have been rising since January with regional variations, London being the most expensive at £5.59.
