Here at VinePair, we’re all about beercations, and pretty much measure our everyday purchasing decisions against the price of a pint. But being a drinker of good, quality beer is easier in certain cities than others, since pint prices tend to vary.
Thanks to a new report from Deutsche Bank, “Mapping the World’s Prices 2018,” along with a neat infographic from Visual Capitalist, we can better gauge where our next beercation will be pricey and where it’ll lean cheap.
As with any price study, the data focuses mostly on global cities and touristy areas, Thrillist reports. But beer prices tend to correlate with cost of living, so if the beer’s cheap, chances are other things will be cheap, too.
