Bearded Theory was around 6.50 a pint. I imagine between 6.50 and 7.50 a pint at Glastonbury 

[1986]

A pint of the standard pils was £7 last year if I remember right? Can see it being 7.50/8 this year. Certainly won't be going down.

I think it was £6.50 for a standard pint last year, cos it was £6.80 at download and i remember it being cheaper - i think they wont break the £7 barrier just yet

[FloopFiller]

Glastonbury have always tended to keep it on the low end of festival drink prices so I imagine £7 max this year, maybe still £6.50 if we’re lucky.

[CanWeRest]

🫨 packing all my own booze this year. Might treat myself to one at a bar.

Was £6.50 for a pint on the refreshwest run bars at lstd this yr, so shangri la, arcadia, silver hayes bars this yr at glasto i reckon.

Every festival this year so fat I've been to has topped £7 a pint. Avalon Inn I expect will. Brother bar might justvsteer clear.

People are usually too trashed to care at that end 😅

[foolee]

It was £7.50 at slam dunk for a larger but more for special IPAs etc. 

[4AssedMonkey]

£7 average a pint in most places I reckon this year.  Some may be cheaper, some a bit more.

[Callum Michael]

Bumping this, anyone on site got price lists yet?

[Superscally]

Download was 6.80 this year

[Ayrshire Chris]

6.50 hopefully.

last night at the Foos it was seven quid for a can of warm Tennants lager poured into a paper cup.

🤣 ffs, that’s rude - Vitamin T is only ever scraping being described as decent when it’s freezing cold 

[kalifire]

Does anyone know if they serve Coke Zero or Pepsi Max at the bars? 

[Memory Man]

Yeah it could be as low as £6 at brothers and cider bus but brooklyn

pilsner is probs going to be £6.90

 

as others have said i dont think they will want to break the £7 barrier this year.

 

at the 2022 festival it was £5 cash a pint of brothers! Those days are of course long gone.

 

Unfortunately its not hard to see why people love to bring their own booze and use drugs when the alternative is circa £7 a pint and likely £10 for a double and mixer

[StuwieG]

Any news on Brothers flavours yet?

[Gnomicide]

This was Bread & Roses last year. Something like a 50p increase per pint wouldn't surprise me for this year but hopefully a little less.

 

[al_coholic]

I know those are expected and normal city prices but it really boils my p*ss how much profit they are making. 

 

A bottle of Beefeater Gin wholesale is £19.72 and has 28 shots, that is £210 for 1 bottle. 

Brooklyn Pilsner wholesales at £2.38 a pint

San Miguel £2.92 a pint

Hobgoblin £1.67 a pint - that's 75% margin on a 3.4% beer, well over industry standard. 

 

And that is before any bulk discounts have been applied.

Maceos is £6 btw

I believe £6

[Alvoram]

I don't see why prices would need to go up this year... We've not had significant beer price increases at the pub, maybe a couple of percent tops... The reason we've had to put our own prices up is mainly because of significant wage increases (and quite right too with everything that's going on.) Are the bars not run by volunteers?

Can't remember if they serve pints or just cans at Maceos, think I only bought from the tow & hitch
