A pint in Tajikistan is ten times cheaper than the average beer in Britain

It's the holy grail for beer lovers on a budget.

And researchers have found the world's cheapest pint, costing a mouthwatering 29p.

But there's a catch - it's only available in the tiny mountainous, landlocked former Soviet republic of Tajikistan, 3,000 miles away from Britain.

Researchers at pintprice.com have compiled a list of the worlds' cheapest - and most expensive - pints.

And they've discovered the most cost-effective tipple is ten times cheaper than the average pint in Britain, which now costs 2.90.

Panama, in Central America, follows hot on the heels of Tajikistan with an average cost of 31p a pint.

Communist North Korea also makes the shortlist, with an average of 38p a pint.
