Look for a place that does "nomihodai". That means all-you-can-drink, and it can start at 1800yen for 2 hours. Best izakaya "Za-Watami". Worst: "Shirokiya".

yeah got it for 40p yipeeeee
Conbini
Conbini beer is hella cheap, nothing like the crazies above.

Regular light lager beer is about Y300 per 500 ml. There are other "beer-like" alcoholic drinks that cost less, but they aren't really beer so they don't count.
Fukuoka
Japan is the best place for NOMI HOUDAI. All you can drink. You can do an ALL YOU CAN SING and ALL YOU CAN DRINK at Karaoke for about 10bucks an hour.

Recommend Yebisu beer - not available everywhere, but is in the Yoronotaki chain. Kind of an English bitter taste with the consistency of a good pilsner.
Kobe
Typical area price for a proper pint of imported ale.

A pint (chu size)of national brand lager is about 500-700 yen at most places
Misawa
You can get pints at a local bar called "My Place"
Nagoya
In hotel restaurant in Nagoya April 2007
Okinawa
In a normal bar, you can find a pint from around $5.00-$10.00
Yes, you can get them cheaper during "happy hour" and at specials. And, you could pay a lot more depending where you are at ;)
Osaka
To be honest your guide is completely inaccurate. I have been living in Japan for five years and I have never paid 1.47 in Osaka. Yes you can get a beer for 3.11 as suggested in lonely planet but it sure as hell aint a pint. You get approximately a half pint glass and a third of that is head! making the true price for a full pint more like 9 pounds. The only places that sell pints are foreign (eg Irish) bars and the price is usually 800 yen hence my quote above.
Also I am guessing but conbini means convenience store eg 7-eleven or corner shop in England. There you can buy 'fake' beer for 220 yen - 1.10 pounds or real beer for 300 yen - 1.50 pounds. Yes you can buy a beer for 150 yen - 75p but a) Its fake beer and b) Its 330ml. Perhaps the users of your website don't know what a pint is. (esp as you have prices in foreign currencies). At present I have little faith in the accuracy of your website.

The Japanese love to add lots of head to the beer.

watch out for the local brews, most contain a chemical that helps to ferment the beer faster, but it gives you one hell of a hangover (even aft 2 or 3 cans)
