Finder notes that the average price of a pint, which is around 570ml, has increased globally over the past year.

This is largely because bars and pubs have been closed for long stints in many places, with plenty of consumers choosing to purchase alcohol from the supermarket instead.

As a result, Ho Chi Minh City ranked sixth in the list with a pint of beer costing £0.74, equal to VND23,036.
