Price of a pint of Guinness to rise again as 'increased costs' blamed

The latest increase will see prices exceed €7 a pint in many city centre locations.

The price of a pint is set to rise yet again, with Diageo increasing the price of Guinness and other drinks on draught from next month.

When Vat, duty and other factors are taken into account, it is expected the price of a pint in a pub will increase by 20-30c, which is expected to see prices exceed €7 a pint in many Dublin city centre locations.
