What it means: the average price of a pint in pubs and bars across the UK, from the prices collected for inflation statistics. ONS stopped publishing these averages after January 2025, so the latest price is not available; the inflation rate for hotels, cafes and restaurants, which includes drinks bought in pubs, continues monthly. Beer duty, VAT, wages and energy costs all feed into the price. Shown for context.
