Relative Values of Beer

Except for that little matter of beer diversity! If it's all about alcohol & flavour delivered per unit price, then Ft. Lauderdale worked out thus:
IPA vs Kellerbier: 7/5% abv = 1.4 more alcohol per unit volume
448/500 ml = 0.896 Seidla per US "pint"
1.4 * 0.896 = 1.25 more alcohol per US "pint" serving of IPA than fränkisches Kellerbier.
5.00/1.90 € = 2.63 x price per serving of IPA vs Kellerbier
2.63 / 1.25 = 2.1 x price per amount of alcohol delivered by IPA vs Kellerbier

Figuring out the value of having a range of beers available instead of one or two (or 14 or however many you have at Wagner these days) plus the value of differences in flavour...too jetlagged for that.
