I was going to buy my Xmas beer (4 cases = 96 cans = £96) but the Polish shop guy insisted I should buy all his stock (6 cases = 144 = £144).
He had been "raided" by Police and Customs and asked how much his beers were. So he told them the price he sells them to the local alkies for, between £1.80 and £2.40.
From next delivery, all receipts must be kept and copied to Customs. So the beer I normally buy is going up from a discounted price of £1 a can to £2.40!!! That's about the same price as Carlsberg Special Brew in UK supermarkets.
And it's more than the Minimum Unit Price the Welsh government want to bring in.
