Guys, had last ne discussion with a friend it was about alcohol or beer.

At most kiosks beer is sold cheaper than water and in the beer production is also consumed water.

I do not drink beer so I was a bit shocked how cheap alcohol is
The cheapest beer costs probably 70 cents in the kiosk and a water costs 1 euro

The make but everywhere everything more expensive as with cigarettes or even coffee so many taxes on it but alk getst still as cheap as never to before

That really p**ses me off
That all the beer drinkers just do not sober up or what is the reason

I recommend 5.0 Original Pils, Oettinger, will only cost you 50 cents

A treat for body and soul.

You can thank companies like Nestle and Co. who want to make a luxury product out of normal water. I guess this kiosk is selling some branded water while offering cheaper beer. Cheap beer keeps customers at the kiosk. The water drinkers are just random customers who have no problem paying a euro. 🤷🏻♀️

In pubs, by the way, at least one non-alcoholic drink must be cheaper than the cheapest alcoholic drink. So water remains cheaper than beer there 😉

Well let's say so water people buy because they usually need it so that would be a point why it is more expensive on the other hand is still the beautiful with beer it usually does not stay with one and so the 0.50 € quickly become 5 € and by the number sold it is worth it again very much

70 cents for a beer at the kiosk is also extremely cheap. I've seen prices twice as high...

I think the law has been around for quite a long time. When I was still in Germany, many pubs made some "dirty drink" cheaper than beer. Still water, with spinach flavor or something

In very many countries, pubs, bars or restaurants have to provide "service water" for free. That is also regulated by law. It comes out of a dispenser, so there's no bubbles, but it also tastes like... well, water

If you show up there with your family, the pitcher of water is brought directly to you with the menu and also refilled when it's empty.

For me, beer is never cheaper than water, because tap water costs as good as nothing and also saves me from lugging bottles

You can't see it that way everywhere, though. In our old building, the tap water is practically undrinkable
