Cost of a pint of beer 'up 45p' as major pub chain raises prices

One of the biggest breweries in the UK is reportedly increasing the price of a pint of beer by up to 45p. Marston's, which has more than 1,500 pubs, said it has had to hike prices due to rising prices, including energy.

It's a further blow to Brits coping with spiralling food, fuel and energy prices. Add in a rise in national insurance and increased bills for some mobile and TV packages, and it's looking to be a financially tight summer for millions.

The hospitality sector has also been hit, the Mirror reports. It is facing its own costs soaring and the price of bitter has escalated over the past year.
