Owww! I used to drink in Oslo regularly around 200-2003 or so, in
Hemingway's, So What & a few other places. I'm appalled to learn it's
gone up even further!
Ringnes /definitely/ wasn't worth that much. ;?)
And I was really looking forward to visiting Japan some day, too...

All true, but in terms of the price, when I was at school in the UK
for a Summer, a pint of lager was 95p, a pint of bitters was a more
affordable 87p. ?A mate of mine (who is slightly younger than I) was
shocked that I'd ever been able to buy beer for under "a pound a
pint", 'cause he never had. ?I in turn was shocked on my last visit to
London (2005) to see prices approaching *three* pounds for a pint.
I'm just back from Tokyo, the only place I've been where beer costs the same
as in Oslo.
That is, around 6 pounds/pint.
