Aucklanders partial to a pint are likely to pay more for their beer than those in Liverpool, Amsterdam or Los Angeles.
A recent study has ranked New Zealand's most populous city as the 50th most expensive place in the world to pick up a beer.
The study into the average price of a 330ml bottle of beer was carried out by GoEuro, a bus, train and flight comparison site for travel across Europe.
The site's 2015 Beer Price Index, compared several brands of beers across several stores and bars around the world, and ranked 75 world cities in terms of price.
Auckland was ranked the 50th most expensive place in the world to buy a beer, with the average price for a 330ml bottle of beer in Auckland sitting at $5.53 (US$3.78).
The price of a beer at an Auckland bar was found to be $8.60 - or $2.44 if you picked up a bottle from a supermarket.
The survey found that in Auckland each person consumes 77 litres of beer each year on average, and spends a total of $1272 on the beverage.
According to the study, beer drinkers would pick up the cheapest brew at a bar in Krakow, Poland, where the average price of a bottle of beer was $2.43.
In Krakow, the average price for a 330ml bottle of beer at the supermarket was $1.01, or $3.95 for the same bottle at a bar.
Europe's most costly destination was Geneva, Switzerland, where the average price of a bottle of beer was $9.24.
A single bottle of beer from a bar was likely to cost $15.75, or $2.73 from the supermarket.
Those in Bucharest, Romania, drink the most beer, with each person consuming 133 litres a year on average.
Meanwhile, those in Cairo, Egypt, are far less thirsty, with each person likely to consume just 4 litres of the beverage a year.
People in Helsinki, Finland, spend and average of $2255 each year, while those in Cairo have much tighter purse strings, spending just $37 a year.
Hospitality New Zealand chief executive Bruce Robertson said the price of a beer from a supermarket and a bar found in the study seemed to be reflective of what customers would pay.
Bars will often have to charge their customers more, as they have more costs to cover, he said.
Brewers Guild of New Zealand chairman Bob King said there were many factors that determined what consumers payed for a beer when they went to a bar.
"Generally, the report shows Auckland is priced reasonably. Compared with other cities on the list, Auckland places well in terms of cost and consumption rates.
For example, in Sydney where the price of a beer is significantly higher, so is overall consumption. That clearly indicates that that pricing alone does not affect how much we drink."
