Rising Gas Prices? Damn. Rising Beer Prices? No Way!

Rising Gas Prices? Damn. Rising Beer Prices? No Way!
Proven: Flatbranch serves what they say in ounces. Not everyone can say the same...

Annoyed that it takes $50 to fill your tank? Well... how about the fact that beer prices have gone up, too?

Not only does your average pint cost more cash, but some bars are apparently taking liberties to cheat on glass sizes to cut costs. For example, some bars swap 14 oz. glasses for the normal 16 oz. ones (they're called "falsies").

Other tricks include careless pouring, which leaves more foam on the top of the beer, and using cups and mugs with thicker glass on the bottom (so less beer fits in the cup).

Piss you off? It pisses a lot of beer drinkers off - like the members of the Campaign for Real Beer and the guy that formed beeradvocate.com.
