Reply to comment by cmajka8 in Cost of a pint of lager/ale, and cocktails, in Worcester pubs. by MockieAhCork

Have you heard of the McDonalds Index? How much McD’s costs in a country compared to other countries tells you about the wealth of the country. This is a real tool economists use.

Asking about beer prices isn’t the craziest thing. If Boston bars sell Bud light for $5 but you can get it in Worcester for $3 that tells you something about the Worcester economy.

OP, you don’t like fancy beer, so you probably will hate it, but treehouse brewing has amazing beer. Fantastic IPA’s but also great other beers. Would look at it

I have heard of it but if you’re comparing the 3 cities based on the cost of a bud light, there won’t much difference. That’s why i was curious about other criteria

Really? We’re talking about bud light here. The most it would differ is by a dollar or so. These are comparable cities, no?
