Economies of Ale

The Washington, DC edition of the City Paper has a very interesting article regarding the cost of pints of beer in the city (at various spots) compared to other regions- some local, some not.

It's a shame that beer brewed within the city limits is more expensive than a beer crafted on the other side of the continent, which has very far to travel to make if to the District.

On the same token of beer prices, expect to feel a pinch in your wallet soon, as beer prices are going up across the board.

Probrewer reported, recently, that barley production suffered a major blow in 2010, with crop yields lower than the total yield in 1936. You can certainly expect the brewers to pass the buck onto you, the consumer, as they have to in order to make the product we all love.
