This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Even at a regular restaurant or bar, a beer is gonna be like $6 or $8.
Maybe 30 years ago you could get a pitcher for $12 if it was happy hour or something.
Yeah I don't think those prices are reasonable either.
But... I don't drink anymore, so what do I know.
In Switzerland (admittedly one of the most expensive places on earth), 15$ ish for a jug is quite normal.
