I do, walked into a pub in Henley with friends I was visiting and was asked what I wanted to drink, was told they had Stella, when I said that it was the worst beer in Belgium and that everyone avoided it where possible (which can be difficult since it is the local brewery) I was surprised when the pub went quiet.
It was then explained to me that it was the most expensive beer they had and therefore it was good, even the pump was pound symbol shaped to reflect its "value".
I still pity people who can only judge quality on the basis of price labels..
