I think it costs more than that Ian, at least double.

Got a friend in Sainte Foy, beer €4.50, Jaeger €2.50... are there any other drinks? Could someone please enlighten me :lol:

I think that is pretty reasonably priced?

:shock: Reasonable at €4.50? You are obviously not a typical (*cough* tight) scot then? That is the equivalent of £4.04 a pint......not reasonable I reckon. I will be stuffing my case full of tesco value lager :wink:

I got a shock this Christmas finding Austria more expensive than Switzerland for beer.

Large Weizenbier (500ml)

Mayrhofen - 3.80 €
Grindelwald - 3.50 €
St. Anton - 5.10 €

:shock:

Lets get a grip lads 8).

Firstly, its beer - we're going to drink loads pretty much regardless of how much it costs (purely in the interests of rehydrating after a hard day on the mountain, of course) :shock:.

Secondly, even allowing for the extraordinary rise in the Euro, the price of a "pint" has probably only gone up by some 50p. Assuming average consumption of 6 pints a night (a lot given the much higher level of alcohol compared with UK), this means that a typical nights drinking is up by £3 a night or about £20 for the holiday. Unwelcome yes, a catastrophy - I don't think so :roll:.

Thirdly, how can you possibly compare drinking own-brand, chemically enhanced, beer in your room with the joy of downing a beautiful velvety smooth, ice-cold weissbeir in good company in a cosy inn - aaaaaghh:lol: Oops - bit early in the day for such alcholic fantasies :oops:

Of course, I do appreciate that the increased costs also affect other areas of expenditure such as food, lift passes, etc but these are clearly not as important as beer :wink:

Well it is £2.80 here for a corona, about £2.60 a pint. I expected far worse than 4..50 for a beer! I will cope..

6 pints a night? You obviously aren't accounting for the Chalet having unlimited wine and beer :wink:
