640ml = 1.35 pints = 79p

1 pint = 79/1.35 = 58.4p

Sounds as if it's a pretty rough lager at that price!

I was calculating at 1 pint = 568 ml. 640/568 = 1.12 and multiplication gives 70p a pint, bongerman?

As a real ale man myself,all Lager is tasteless to me.
Thought I'd try it, 4.5% ABV best served very cold.
Amazing how they can ship it all the way from China in a Glass bottle for that price.

wow - just checked - I was using 1 pint = 0.473 litres but that's an "american pint"

I never knew they had a different pint!

You win grasscarp.
