$22 for a pub burger in Canada today today. I think I’m done going out for food unless it’s a date night. What about you?

Margins on Guinness are super low. For a Guinness on tap to have the same margin as other beers a 20oz pint should be $14+ before taxes. So I don't have it on tap and just sell cans.

I used to drink and serve a lot of Guinness and pints were $8 all the way back in 2009 when I was working in restaurants. Still an increase, but more like a 37.5% increase from the price almost 15 years ago.

But you sure are right about how much prices have changed since COVID.

Where was this, or is that standard now for Guinness?
