PerfectDraft - The true cost of a pint

We wanted to show you how we work out the price of a pint. There are a couple of things to take into account:

  • We give you £5 in Beer Tokens (see below) for each keg you return.
  • We give you 5% in Beer Tokens when you buy a keg.
  • There are 10.56 pints (6 litres) in each keg.

We take Stella Artois 0.0%, our cheapest keg (Feb 2026) at £27.50. If we take off £5 for keg returns and 5% in Beer Tokens, the price is £21.12. Divide that by 10.56 pints, and we have £2.00 per pint.

stella artois 0.0 keg

Stella Artois keg cost = £36.95 - £1.85 back in Beer Tokens - £5 in Beer Tokens for keg return = £30.10 / 10.56 = £2.85 per pint



Camden Pale keg cost = £39.55 - £1.98 back in Beer Tokens - £5 back in Beer Tokens for return = £32.57 / 10.56 = £3.08 per pint



Goose Island IPA keg cost =  £41.95 - £2.10 back in Beer Tokens - £5 back in Beer Tokens for return = £34.85 / 10.56 = £3.30 per pint

So for you boffins out there here's the formula to find out exactly how much each pint of pub-quality beer will set you back:

And all of this is assuming you're buying the kegs at normal price - every Wednesday we switch up our Multibuy keg offer, where you can get up to 15% off a selection of kegs.

So now we have the boring maths out of the way, let's enjoy a pint!
