Alcohol prices circa 1970?

Question

If one were to got out to a bar (local tavern, not upscale place) around 1970, how much would a beer or shot of liquor cost?

Answer 1

In 1972 I was living in Wyoming where I complained bitterly when the price of a domestic beer in a tavern was raised from $.50 to $1.00!

"Why, that's six bucks a six pack!" I said, when you could buy a 6er for $3.00 in a package store.

A well highball was $2.00 and premium $2.25.
