It was a lost leader.

And now it comes hand in hand with valuing the product and people valuing the idea that I'm drinking a pint.

What would you pay for a pint of Guinness in Dublin now?

And that ties in more to, we're in Yorkshire now, a pint of Barnsley Bitter

there's a pound premium on that for me, that's fine.

Because I feel like I'm buying into something.

I feel like I'm... There's an industry that you're supporting outside of... I've got a sense of my own philanthropy somewhere in there.

You know, if we were in Liverpool and it's a brutal-based brewery that's starting up and trying its best and having a good go and doing some interesting products, you feel almost like noble and you feel like there's a... Ultimately, I think you can feel that the price of a pint these days is worth it if the pint is the point.

And if the pint isn't... Which is the point.

If it isn't, if it's just on the side of your Sunday dinner, then maybe you start to resent it a little bit more.

Everyone feels like if you get it right, it's worth £15.

Well, Pulp, I suppose.

But I think I'm probably in between stools in terms of Human League and Arctic Monkeys as very Sheffield-y.

So Pulp kind of bridged that gap, I guess, in terms of, they're probably going around the same time as Human League, weren't they?
