There is though a subtle difference between 'surge pricing' in pubs and dynamic pricing in theatres, airlines, etc...  There is a harder limit on the number of theatre/plane seats that the public can easily perceive, than on the number of drinks a bar can sell.  I think therefore people are more likely to see surge pricing in pubs in terms of profiteering, rather than supply logistics.
