Anyone ever work in a bar?

So say you're a bar owner.

What is a fair amount of money to make on a single half barrel (full keg) of PBR? I'm going on the price at the supermarket of $69, no cost for a tap assuming that the bar owns one. If you made back the cost of the keg + double (so like $140), would that be enough? How much does a typical keg make a bar?

124 pints in a keg.

[dimbee]

$2.49/pint

Do the math

PBR...you should be selling that for about 7 cents per pint!

Bars make 100 points back on every keg while grocery sites make 15 points max.

That is six cents more than a Molson should be sold for.

It's all good, I'm just negotiating with the venue we're playing at tonight because we're having a $1 beer special but the owner called me concerned he wouldn't make enough back on the keg and the bartender wouldn't make a fair amount of tips, and he wanted to keep a share of our door money. We came to a fair agreement.

I worked in a bar in Hawaii, but as a doorman and bouncer. Don't know the slightest thing about what beer prices should be.

it's not designed to get the taste of cock out of your mouth, so next time take a rinse before you drink the beer!!!!

Same here. No matter where I was working though, once we started to close up, the and the keep had open bar.
