One can of bad beer (50 cl): 1.4 US$
One can of good beer (50 cl): 2.1 US$
One bottle of decent wine (750 cl): 9.6 US$
One bottle of decent whisky (700 cl): 36.2 US$

Note that the Swedish currency is unusually strong against the dollar atm, so the prices are usually slightly lower in American currency, but you get the general picture.

Well, here in Norway, alcohol is expensive .. But note that everything else is as well.

One can of beer (0.5 litres) ~ 23.00 NOK = 3.87335 USD
The same beer at a pub ~ 50.00 NOK = 8.41973 USD at lowest and up to ~70 NOK = 11.7882 USD depending on the place
1 litre of Laphroaig 10 year old whisky - 721.00 NOK = 121.428 USD .. Usually, you buy these in 70 cl bottles which would be 505 NOK = 85.0541 USD

For reference to more usual stuff, the breads I buy cost from 20.00 NOK = 3.36860 USD and up and a litre of milk costs about 13.00 NOK = 2.18950 USD .. I think.
