This is a thing in other places too, it seems.

The price of the beer slows down the pace of drinking by about six times. https://t.co/vuXyOp3CFp

What if we took the beauty of drinking 12 pints and added a layer of anger and frustration. That’s sure to keep the punters happy https://t.co/P6lCjDa2DX
