Prices for a number of pints are set to rise at the beginning of next month in a major blow for Irish pubs and customers.
In a letter, seen by Virgin Media News, Heineken Ireland confirmed that a price increase on all of its draught products will be introduced to "enable us to more closely reflect the cost of producing and supplying our products."
It will affect a number of different drinks in Irish pubs, sending the prices of pints upwards in the process.
