Yeah, that's about the size of it - though you could expand that analogy to encompass most of Sydney

Re: Australian Beer is Just Too Goddam Expensive

Sunday @ the football cost me just over 100 bucks purely on beer/cider .... So I tend to sympathise with this view. I think I bought the Wife two drinks out of that as she didn't turn up until she finished work circa 4pm ish. Got to admit I did start pre midday and didn't get home till pretty late... still was quite expensive really.

Half of that was happy hour as well. I would have been happy with sub 80 bucks.

Seasons over soon, then I can get back to drinking at home prices again.
