In 23 other metropolises across the globe you'll pay at least $5 on average for a beer at a local bar, including four cities in the US.  The report sources prices from Expatistan, a site that tracks cost-of-living expenses in over 200 countries, for a "beer in a neighborhood pub (500 ml or 1 pint) in expat area" in nearly 50 cities.  Here are the 24 most expensive cities where a beer at the local bar will set you back the most.   All prices are in US dollars. Photos are of bars found in each city.  SEE ALSO: A 30-year-old saved $10,000 in rent when she left Los Angeles to Airbnb-hop around the world DON'T MISS: The 10 restaurants where the richest people in the world eat 24.
