Where can you get a glass of beer for 1 USD?

[Beerpedianet]

Well I see the majority of places is around the universities. It must have been really hard to study there.

 

[jimmayhugh]

Still plenty of $1 beers in the casinos, or free if you're playing, and Todd English P.U.B. has $.05 glasses of PBR on Tuesdays.

Hell, when I was in college in the mid-90s, we'd go to a place that had a $5 cover and $1 pitchers all night. I think they still do that.

Up until recently, there was a local place called Burgers and Brew that had gourmet burgers and and beer. Burgers were gourmet cuz they had buffalo, ostrich, you name it. But they had a couple of beers on draft.. one of which they had their own name on.. but it was an PA made by Firestone.. was real good. Now the brews are $2 a pint.. still, PA, Bud, Shocktop, Oatmeal Stout, Porter and others. Also a variety of bottled beers. Tough to beat still.

I remember going to a bar in Wildwood NJ that had 5 glasses of beer for $1. Can't remember the name or where, but still remember having to buy 5 at-a-time.

Local place here had 1 dollar brew and on their grand opening I had a coupon for 1/2 off drinks that night. I paid 50 cents a tap beer. Leinies but still fiddy cents.

Otherwise a lot of the VFW's and American Legions have very cheap beer.

 

[Malticulous]

A Mexican restaurant here used to have dollar draft Sundays.

4.72$ for a growler re-fill? Is the beer any good? Hell at that price I'd come into the pub and drink a few growlers at the bar.

Yeah.....I'm sure the bargain questioned in the OP is possible, just not sure I'd want to drink what's up at that price. The local watering hole we favor has a couple of macros on tap, and has pints of PBR on Sunday for $2, along with a pretty stiff shot of Jameson for $3. But since I don't drink either of those.....

Every once in a while they'll be moving some kegs out that they have too many of, and a pint of that beer will be $3. They recently had a Stone promotion and were doing that, and I was drinking a bunch of that stuff.....Arrogant Bastard, indeed.

Well, since you said "country" in your original post, that leaves it open to a ton places where you can still get a beer for 1 USD. The places I've been to that fit that bill include Guatemala, rural Peru, and Prague ($0.37 for a huge stein of beer although this was in '99. I'm sure a normal pint in many Czech areas are still $1.00 or less, though I could be wrong).

If you're visiting a second or third world country and drinking the local beer, you have a good chance of getting a beer for $1 US. Doesn't mean it will be great, but that's another thing altogether.

I was in Prague in 09 and the beer was both delicious and cheap. At quite a few places beer was under a dollar. The Koruna is like a magic money multiplier though, we bought some leather shoes while we were there that were about five bucks.

So beer cost the equivalent of $8.03 in 1938? Must be why they never had to change the price

 

[straycat]

me and some buds were going to a new restaurant/bar that had $1 bottle specials every day (until they ran out of the product). since we were always hitting it for happy hour they were always available. they were mostly craft brews. i'm writing this in past tense because they just recently stopped offering the $1 deal. we don't go there anymore.

LoL actually that's a typo on my part ,they opened in 38,I don`t know what the prices were then as I wasn`t born yet .

but I`ve been there off and on for at least ten years and the price is still the same.

Oh and it`s definitely not craft brew.

 

[Beerpedianet]

The Kegerator Pub in my kitchen. Free beer!!!

 

[Whippy]

Yah, true....You can get an ice cold 750ml of Castle or Hansa for like R6.50 (about 80 cents US) in South Africa and you can drink it while riding down the road. lol (you are not supposed to drive with it though)

 

[mjdonnelly68]

Tinker's in Auburn, NY in 1986. Everything was a dollar - all drinks, all day, every day. Biggest reason I'll never be elected to Congress.

 

[downtown3641]

While I was in college (only six or seven years ago), we had a bar that did 50 cent drafts on Thursday nights. Of course, it was 12oz of Bud Light or Miller Light.

 

[AleFred]

I remember living in Wisconsin for 6 months (was when they won the SB with #4, so awhile ago). Used to go to a nice restaurant/bar in Spooner on a lake where you could get $0.50 domestic taps. I gained a lot of weight that summer. Took away from my fishing time!

There's a German microbrewery in Chiang Mai now. 90 Baht a pint. Will have to check it out next trip. Looking at the exchange rate, it looks like your trip was about as long ago as my last visit. Dollar is way down. You only get 31.5 Baht to the USD now.
