Price of alcohol in the US.?

I'm going to the US this summer, and plan to drink pretty much every day all day.



What is the general price level on beer and booze in the US? How much does beer cost in grocery stores and on the town, and how much does various drinks cost in bars and such? We are going to south-eastern USA. Kansas City, Oklahoma City/Wichita, St. Louis, Nashville and Memphis.



I understand that one single answer can't be made, but I was thinking of the general price level. Also, are there any specific types of beer/liquor specialized to this area we should try out?



Looking forward to be able to go out on the town without having to pay 10-15 USD for a 0,5 litre beer.



If there are any nice restaurants or chain and stuff around in this area I wouldn't mind hearing about those either.



Thanks for your time.Price of alcohol in the US.?
You're going to some pretty cool cities (which might be fun to see before you start your daily drinking). Kansas City is known for the barbecue... which restaurant is the best depends on whom you ask. Arthur Bryant's (http://www.arthurbryants.com ) is a classic though and definitely worth checking out! There are a couple of decent microbrewerys there, too- http://www.rivermarketbrews.com/ .

Walk around the plaza (which is designed to be reminiscent of Seville, Spain) and you will see jazz and blues combos playing on streetcorners. It's a great time.



Memphis is a whole different kind of barbecue... but if you're having KC, you might as well get the comparison. http://www.corkysbbq.com/ is a good place to start, but if you are visiting someone they will have a favorite. Go down to Beale Street and you will find a plethora of bars and restaurants and blues venues. Take your pick, or find a local and see where they hang out.
A pint of beer (micro-brews) are the only beer with drinking in the US. They are around 3-5 US dollars at a bar restaurant.

Keep in mind that part of the states is rather puritanical.Price of alcohol in the US.?
haha your in luck my frind, ive lived in germany travled europe, ive tasted some good beer.. but back in the states its easy to find it cheap but only in a store not a bar or club, in a store you can buy a case of busch beer for dirt cheap. bottles usually dont come in half litres so go the 40OZ path, colt 45, st ides, old english, shlitz, hurracane, if you dont see any of these just look for the bigges bottle for a buck 50 and you got it.. tastes like **** but will get you drunk
