cheapest drink in London?

[dragonyphoenix]

Back just after Rupert's Ripper-days, if someone were drinking in a real dive in London, what would be the cheapest way to go. I want the drink to be alcoholic and something that could be nursed, like a beer. I'm thinking the equivalent of Pittsburgh's Tech Beer, which is the dregs of Iron City beer.

When exactly is that? As in what year are we talking about?

Based on ASH's age, Ripper would have been 18 in the early 70's, so '72 r '73.

Okay. Found this menu from a bar in New york in the 1970's.

I tried to find an old menu from a bar in the Uk from around 1970 but couldn't.
