Kavanagh's pub in Dublin 8 is pushing back against Diageo's price hike by removing some of their drinks' taps. However it has committed to keeping Guinness pints at €5 with a cash discount scheme, aiming to shield locals from the surge in costs.
A beloved Dublin pub has vowed to take a stand against Diageo's latest price increase by removing the taps to some of their drinks.
Despite energy costs and inflation decreasing recently, Diageo blamed rising input costs across all its operations in Ireland for the price rise.The international drinks giant had previously increased the price of a pint by 12 cent in February last year and then by a further 4 cent last July, causing anger among publicans.
He wrote: "To say we are disappointed with yet another increase, would be an understatement. We are a small locals local run by a liberty boy born and bred who understands the needs of our customers. "We are not like the price gougers in certain areas of the city, we always try look after our locals that’s why yet again we will absorb this third increase in 18 months on Guinness with our discount scheme for customers paying with cash and leave it at €5. Good portion of our customers are senior citizens who never moved to the modern card and tap era so for them they can still come in with €20 cash and have four pints.
A third wrote: "Fair play, as you said the older gent coming in each day not only for a pint but a bit of company toooo keeping their pint at €5 cash."
