Bad news for some.
Beer, wine, spirits going up in price
7:00AM Saturday May 26, 2007
Drinkers may be in for a stomach-churning double whammy with the hotel industry and two major breweries deciding to impose separate price rises.
The cost of a 500ml (pint) of beer is to increase by 15c-20c. Lion Nathan and DB Breweries followed through on last month's decision to pass on rising production costs. Wine and spirits will also cost more.
Also, the Hotel Association is advising members to increase prices to offset costs incurred by the Holidays Act.
