That's about a quarter of the price of beer. There are more expensive beers of course, but somewhere near £2 will get you a pint of session bitter in most places. I cant work out your quantities in ounces because you use different ounces and gallons to us. How much is your ordinary bar draft beer a US gallon? -- Russ Jeep Technician and Big Hairy Biker |
