[Headline: Beer Price to Rise?
Brewers may get a reprieve this year from tight supplies of malting barley in Canada, but higher costs will likely force them to raise the price of beer next year.
Flooding lowered the quality of the latest barely crops in Canada and Australia, leaving some unsuitable to turn into malt. Mar. 8, London Free Press]

This hurts.
I’ve been keeping a list: Thing$ Going North $$.
I’ve been checking it (more than twice; I think the official list is up to an even dozen, all important items).
And today is a sad day. Not only do I have to add one more item but the item happens to be a heavy favourite of mine - beer.
When will the misery end?
How will it end? With an empty mug? I can’t think.
