Carcassonne
Found two good bars in Carcassonne one in the Citadel The Bar de Vins price here a bit expensive at 6.5 euros and one in the new town Ville Basee The Celt (an Irish pub) best price I found at 5 euros a pint. The old citadel is like something out of disney film well worth a visit.

1 pint is 13% less than half a litre therefore you should increase your prices by 13%

GARCHES

GRASSE
France is expensive for beer in bars but dead cheap in shops and supermarkets,the french do not drink lots in bars and will linger for hours over a demi (half) other influence is the social security costs paid by bar owners ,we had a pub near Perpignan for 15 years now on the riviera where you can pay 7 30 for a stout.Most brits frequent happy hour pubs ,pint for price of half ,thats better!

Lyon
Total rip off in bars and hotels(Ibis 9 euros for 2 drinks of lager 500ml & 250 ml). In city same drinks plus a fruit juice-12 euros
lyon
a rich strong dark beer
Lyon
Good selection of pubs, mostly in Vieux Lyon (the old town), prices between 4,50 and 5,50 euro a pint for lager (Kro, Stella, etc), often a bit cheaper before 9pm. Guinness, Kilkenny, etc cost between 5 and 6 euros. Cheapest Guinness in Lyon is Paddy's Corner at Croix Rousse (5 euro a pint) and James Joyce on Rue St Jean near the Cathedral in Vieux Lyon (4.50 a pint before 9pm, 5.30 a pint after 9pm).
Lyon
Can be as low as 4 euros a pint (half litre) up to 9pm, may be as high as 6 euros. Beers other than standard lager (e.g. Leffe, Kilkenny, Guinness, Affligem) are typically a euro more expensive (5 to 6 euros a pint normally).

Mulhouse
A la Nef des Fous, pinte de Stella à 4€.
Nantes
In Nantes, there are many bars where a beer cost $2,50. At the Lieu Unique, near the train station, the "Kro" cost 2 euros!
Nantes
The 'Kro' in Nantes that another user said was 2euro in the Lieu Unique is for "un demi" (25cl!!!!!!) not for a pint!
Nice
Most of the bars on th main streets were charging over 6 euros where uif you went up the alleyways and non restaurants you could get beers for 3euro50
Nice
On the beach at Quai des Etats Unis - a marquis and seafront bar - €8 for a pint of Heineken and €12.90 for a (UK measure) G&T. Nice views!!!
Nice
The french are idots and they don't know how to have a good time. All nice is is 4 irish pubs, a load of kids on roller skates bedding for money and 100's of over priced cafes selling 9euro half pints with an inch of throth. PURE SKANK!!!
Nice
With the terrible exchange euro - pound, can be expensive. I was in Nice September 2009, Happy Hour usually is 5-9pm (M-Tue allday) @ E3.50 - 4.00. after happy hour places ask about E5.50-6.10 for a pint. The best places to go are DeKlomp (500ml Erdinger E4 happy hour and plenty of pints), Waynes, Ma Nolans, and lots of local french bars in the old town. There is a nice restaurant on Bvd Victor Hugo selling pints of Hoegarden for E5.00 all day. If the euro-pound was 1.5 then Nice would be okay, but at the moment you are better having a few early evening then moving to wine later on, which is failry cheap. Spirits are about E5 happy hour, E7 lateron. Hope this helps
NICE
VERY NICE PLACE, A PINT WAS ABOUT 6 - 6 1/2 EUROS VERY EXPENSIVE 3.80 AT WAYNES BAR DURING HAPPY HOUR NOV 2009 V
Nice
Nice is a great city to live and work , although remember you are in the S of France , so nothing is cheap.If you're from the Uk it's a bit of a shock , although if you head away from Prom Anglais , you can find cheaper pints , mostly in old Nice , and not just Irish pubs.Although now having lived in France for the last few years , the best bet is to switch to wine and learn French.
Orleans
At campsite Parc de Alicourts, Pierrefitte
Paris
France aren't really renouned for their beers. Get some Leffe (Belgian) if it's not too expensive but if you can find some cheap Kronenbourg 1664 then it isn't too bad.
paris
cheapest pint 8 euro, half pint 5 euro dearest pint 12 euro
PARIS
Price of a pint of bitter in the "Frog and Princess"
Paris
8 Euro for 0,5l. Definitely too much!
Paris
€8 for Paris is only true for the high-end places. In a French cafe expect to pay €5 for 0.5l and about €7 in an Irish/English bar.
Paris
pub frog and rosbeef: 6,5euros for a pint

Paris
Just got back from Paris - and be warned that beer is VERY expensive! Not just the touristy places, but everywhere. Regularly paid 7-9 euros for 50cl. Coffee and soft drink also hugely inflated.
Paris
incredibly expensive - and not just the tourist haunts. You pay anything from 7 - 10 euros a pint (50cl)
PARIS
BETWEEN 7 AND 8 EUROS EVERYWHERE WE WENT. NIGHTMARE

Paris
€10 in the Novotel Les Halles bar. €8.50 in Rive Droite bar cafe in Les Halles. €8.50 in this bar near the Pompidou centre. The cheapest place we found was O'Sullivans Rebel Bar on Rue Des Lombards. €3.60 for a pint. But i think it must've been happy hour because all the menus said €6.30 for a pint of Kronenbourg.
paris
VERY EXPENSIVE
Paris
Beer in Paris is ridiculously expensive. A 500ml glass will cost you anywhere between 7.30euro to 10euro for Heineken. Think up to 20euros for Leffe
paris

Paris
Happy Hour @ Hideout, 2.5€ !!!
Paris
Happy Hour @ Hideout !
Paris
For tourist beer's price is 7,5€ ... But when you live in Paris, it's easy to find Pub where the beer cost around 5€ for 50cl. (It's always expansive) In happy hour you can find 2,5€ or 3€, I think it's a normal price.
paris
Typical price for Stella, Heineken etc
Paris
Just got back from Paris 14/05/09: stayed in the Opera district and Heineken, Stella etc around the €6-7 mark. Coffee at €3.5 a cup - bloody expensive!!
Paris
Visited end April, beginning of May 2009. Good quality beer available everywhere, but VERY expensive. Happy hours not easy to come by. Between 7.40 and 8.40 EUR for a 50cl glass (just under a pint)
paris
paris 8 euros a pint,....
Paris
Paris is littered with tourist traps, but you can have a pint of guinness for 5€ if you know where to go. Avoid everything around Notre Dame, Opera, and Champs Elysée. The best prices are at the Hideout (Chatelet), The Wall (Place monge) and in general around Mouffetard.
Paris
Very expensive city. The range is EUR6-10 for an average pint in a bar. In a club or in a tourist zone, it can easily be double.
paris
Rubbish ber, will never set foot in place again
paris
pints are very expensive, you pay 12€ for a pint near the Eiffel tower.
Paris
Absolute rip off. Average price EUR8.5.
Paris
guinness tavern (rue de Lombards), only place I found cold Guinness and showed the footy. 6 euro
Paris
Astronomical prices for lager throughout the city. Not the place to go if you want to drink more that half a pint an hour!
paris
Rip-off city. Expect to pay around 4-5 euros for 25cl of Kronenburg in any bar or bistro. Or from a supermarket for next to nothing. Insane.
Paris
A great city but prices for drinks are way too high. A pint (or 0.5 litre) is gonna be anything between £5 - £8! Insane. Even a cup of tea of coffee might set you back £5.I would go back more often but it's just too expensive.
paris
the average in the paris city i found was around 8 Euro's the highest being 15 Euros for a 500cc glass !!!!
Paris
0.5 litre Heineken brasserie close to Gare de L'est pais 9.80 Euros on Sep. 17th 2009
Paris
rip off city, don't go there if you like to dink beer. its overpriced and not very nice to drink either. short measures too.
Paris - Latin quarter
Beer worked out 6-7 GBP per pint. Happy hours in the area run from 5pm to 9pm where the beer is reduced to 5 GBP per pint. Not really a happy hour as we know it where you get 2 for the price of one. Prices correct as of August 2010
Paris 13 Butte aux Cailles
5? during happy hours, for a pint -50cl for this excellent Belgish beer ?

Rouen

rouen
prices for a half pint range from 2 euros to 3.50 so you could pay over 6 quid a pint. A lot of bars close on sundays or mondays too. Best bar is highland bar at place republique. Shows all sports and its 4.20 a pint shut mondays while i was there.

St Germain-en-Laye
Try "The Bitter End": a really nice English pub that will serve you a very decent pint. However, the notion of nipping down to the pub for a couple of pints has lost its allure given the astronomical price: €7 a pint.
