At home, 60 miles from the coast, pensioners special F&C £3.60. Whitby,
next to the fish dock, £9-ish.
At Uig the pub charged us a fortune for the beer 'because of transport
costs'. But the brewery is 100 yards away.

but, the ingredients needed to be brought in from far away.

The heaviest ingredient comes from a mountain stream just behind the
brewery!
