Jeremy Clarkson’s tweet about worth of pint shut down with awkward group word
Jeremy Clarkson has discovered himself in a little bit of an ungainly second on social media.
I imply, that’s arguably not probably the most shocking factor for the previous High Gear host however on this event, it nearly looks like he’s calling himself out.
A put up from the 65-year-old on X was shut down with a group word as he spoke in regards to the worth of pints.
All the time a assure to get a Brit hammering on and complaining, the rise in the price of beer on draught is unavoidable. Various dramatically throughout completely different areas of the UK, the common worth of a pint in Britain sits at about £4.52 (as of 2024).
However as many people know, there’s loads of pubs charging far more than this and a few reckon it’s slicing off common prospects as Clarkson responded.
Effectively-documented for Clarkson’s Farm, the host opened his pub, The Farmer’s Canine, again in 2024 in Oxfordshire.
And it’s completely dedicated to serving British-grown produce, from the meals menu to his Hawkstone beer and cider on draught and British gentle drinks to finish.
A person on X had began a dialog across the matter: “With out pubs, Britain ceases to be Britain,” as they identified how the star had found the ‘determined state’ of UK pubs.
They went on to say: “The commerce misplaced these ‘every day’ prospects, and changed them with individuals who used the pubs for infrequent use for meals. The OAP’s went. Then Covid taught individuals to drink at house. The behavior was misplaced. £6-7 a pint works in cities, however not within the sticks.”
And Clarkson stated within the replies: “I don’t assume the £6.50 pint works anyplace. It’s ludicrous.”
Nonetheless, a group word was added to his put up to present some ‘context’ because it reads: “The most affordable worth for an alcoholic pint in The Farmer’s Canine, the pub owned by Jeremy Clarkson is £6.75 in accordance with their very own menu.”
I don’t assume the £6.50 pint works anyplace. It’s ludicrous.

This clearly triggered fairly a divide as many had been fast to level out that the ‘seven quid pint’ is ‘working high quality’ for the star.
“Final time I used to be in your pub you tried to cost me £7 for a pint,” one wrote. “So you’ll be able to f**okay proper off.”
Others referred to as him a ‘hypocrite’ as a lot simply shared screenshots of the menu at The Farmer’s Canine.
Nonetheless, there was some defence for Clarkson, with one writing: “His tweet doesn’t imply he agrees with the costs set in his pub, it’s most likely taxation and all the pieces else that bolsters the worth up. It most likely don’t generate that a lot revenue.”
