I don't think they sell Pride.
But, I think that Twickenham Naked Ladies is £2.49

A quick google revealed that a pint of pride in the Prince
Albert is £5.05 , ESB is £5.30. Twickenham fine ales charges £4
a pint I think. It’s difficult to remember prices when your
always buying in rounds where not everyone drinks the same.
As I don’t buy anything at the ground I wondered if the
£6.00+ included the £1 for the container. If it does it’s not
too badly priced.

£6 is more than Guildford, more than I paid in London last time
I had a pint of pride (a few weeks ago).
If it includes the "glass" then it's good if it is just the best
inside them it's too pricey.

No the £1 cup deposit would previously been on top of this, but
it looks like they have finished with the eco returnable cups
and have the disposable bio degradable plastic cups that they
have also introduced in Twickenham stadium.

At the donator event on Wednesday the meantime Pale Ale was 6.20
and there was no charge for the cup which is biodegradable and
popped into the recycling bin.

I wonder what has happened to all the reusable cups that we've
had for the last few seasons? Recycled, re-used (are the
graphics printed or removable) or dumped?!

This is very good news. When Fullers werre a relatively small
business they could never have done this. Now it's Asahi it
makes great sense.
For those moaning about the price, I don't think sports ground
are that far ahead of pubs now. The bif difference in recent
years hasn't really been price, but quality. If you accept it's
£6 a pint, would you rather pay £6 for a decent pint in a pub,
or £6 for drainwater from Quins. The new supplier is only good
news if they get in a halfway decent bar manager

Many many many moons ago Fuller's did a promotion that if you
consumed a certain number of pints you got a free tee shirt. Me
being a good boy and drinking all my beer I ended up with two.
Would be nice if they did a similar scheme at the stoop but
Fuller's/Quin's duel branded or is that promoting unhealthy
drinking cultures?

Those moaning about the price are pointing out that 6 quid with
a refundable cup is not the same as 6 quid without one. A pint
of ale should never be 6 quid. It's daylight robbery.
Plus in a pub I wouldn't expect it to sit unattended for 2 weeks
between servings. The grolsh I bought earlier was as flat and
lifeless as the heineken last season, and considering it's
presumably new stock that's a bit of a concern.
