The local Michelob Ultra or Budweiser will be $15.95 (£11.88) a US pint on June 17 when England take on Croatia.
Fan fury spiralled further last night as they realised a US pint is 17 per cent smaller than a UK Imperial measure – so we’ll get even less beer for their bucks at games.
Beer will be served as a US pint – which is 16oz or 473ml – compared to 20oz or 591 ml served in British boozers.
Fans in premium seats who have beer brought to them will be expected to pay a 20 per cent tip.

That takes the cost to more than £15 — three times the average in England’s pubs.
Even water is £6.14 for 473ml while hot dogs are $8.95 (£6.66) and burgers $16.95 (£12.62).
The stadium is home to American Football’s famous Dallas Cowboys.
England fan John Edwards, 38, from Stafford, said: “No wonder they call them the Dallas Cowboys!”
Simon Harris, 67, from Bridgnorth, Shrops, said: “The beer prices are ridiculous, but no surprise in this rip-off World Cup.”
Fifa said they played no part in setting the prices.
