Default Brain teaser

This bar bet is killing me and my brain is fried. I have money on this and I think this is trick that might not have an answer (or trick answer)

BAR BET FACTS
1. Its take a minimum of 4 US coins to buy a beer
2. To buy 2 Beers, you need a minimum of 6 coins
3. To buy 3 beers, you need no more than 2 coins

How much is a beer?

POG is happy to help settle bar bets, but you have to buy the solver a beer.
