I was actually referring to draught lager. Always a good pint and, although it cost a little more than what I am used to paying, it is comparable to night club and city pub prices in Sunderland (around £2.50). In London, you can expect to pay up to £3.00 a pint!! I didn't mind paying for the pint - it was the fact that a half-pint costs much more than half the price of a typical pint - E2.10 rather than E1.80. Apart from that minor quibble, I definitely had no complaints. Regards, Steve.
