Diageo Ireland, brewers of Guinness and Carlsberg, said the wholesale price of all its draught and bottled beers will go up by 2.7pc from March 5, Irish Independent published February 15.

Inclusive of VAT, that works out at an increase of about 5c on a pint.

Publicans often add an increase for themselves at times of wholesale price hikes and beer prices in off-licences will also rise.
