A Man's Search for Cheap Beer Took Him to a Country That Doesn't Exist

He found a beer for 77p.

A YouTuber was surprised by the price of beer at his local pub. He wanted to find out if he could get a cheaper beer somewhere else. He ended up in a country that doesn't exist.

Robbie Knox found the cheapest beer in the UK. It was 99p for a Worthington's Creamflow at a pub in Batley, Yorkshire.

Robbie tried to find a cheaper beer. He went to bars in Sofia, Bulgaria. It was hard to compare prices because beers are sold by the liter in Europe.

The bars Robbie visited were mostly restaurants. They sold beer at higher prices. The first beer Robbie tried cost almost three times the price of the beer in Batley.

Robbie said, 'Our first beer was not cheap, but we ate good food to prepare for our research.'

Robbie couldn't find a cheaper beer in Sofia's university area. He decided to try somewhere else.

Robbie used math to compare beer prices.

Robbie thought, 'We need to leave the Eurozone to find the cheapest beer.' He researched and found that Moldova might have the cheapest beer.

Moldova has cheaper beer than many other countries. Robbie decided to go there to find a cheap beer.

Moldova is known for its wine, but it also has a growing craft beer scene.

Robbie visited Moldova and found it different from what he expected. The capital city has a nice vibe and many bars.

Bulgaria didn't have cheap beer.

Robbie's first beer in Moldova cost £4.72, which is like the price in Norwich.

Robbie found a bar with lower prices, but it was still not as cheap as the beer in Batley.

Moldova is the poorest country in Europe. But it has many great bars and restaurants.

Moldova doesn't have a pub like Wetherspoons. Robbie decided to try smaller towns.

Robbie went to a place called Transnistria to find a cheap beer.

Transnistria is a small area that separated from Moldova. It has its own government and currency.

Transnistria is not recognized by many countries. But it has very cheap bars.

The UK government advises against traveling to Transnistria. But Robbie went there for his research.

Robbie found a beer for 77p in Transnistria. He was happy to have finally found a cheaper beer.

But when Robbie added up the cost of traveling and staying in Transnistria, it might have been cheaper to stay in Yorkshire.
