In the UK we are charged approx £5 ($10) per gallon of petrol, but beer works out at a staggering £20 ($40) per gallon! At this rate I am going to have to start drinking petrol to save myself some money!

Depends on your beer choice! 128 ounces = 1 US Gallon. That is less than one half rack! So if you buy Budweiser at 24 cans for $5 (crap beer), then you are paying $2.50 a gallon. If you Buy Aventinus Icebock for example at about $120 per 24 pack, well, I can help ya!

I no longer go the pub or as you guys say, the bar. The cost is getting out of hand here for example a good strong beer will now set you back £4.73 a pint and and average one is £3.94, better off going to the supermarket.

I hear ya. I've been buying Deschuttes Inversion IPA constantly lately for about $12 a 12 pack. Its fairly strong at 6.8% too, so it doesn't take many to do the job! :p

Matter of fact, i am not eating out much lately either. Getting tired of cheap places starting to cost $60 for a meal, and a decent place costing $100. Crazy. I'd rather keep my money thanks!

£3.94 for an average pint? Where the bleedin' hell are you drinking Steed, Buckingham Palace? The only £4-odd pint I have is bottles of Fullers Vintage Ale. Other than that London Pride is about £2.60 and ESB is £2.80. No wonder you've given up the pub! Of course, for a cheap pint theres always Wetherspoons.
