    Actually went to New Belgium today (taking the day off for my 9th anniversary with my wife) and they had it on tap and in bottles to purchase for $17. Good on tap $2 tasters, but not worth $17 for a bomber of it IMO. Did get to try Equinox, Black Bottle, and The Mayor for the first time. Mayor was awesome with Temptation on tap. Sorry didn't mean to thread jack. :slight_smile:

    I guess I shouldve posted Le Terroir is raining down in the NB taproom when I was there last Wednesday. Sorry guys.

    Strongly disagree. Love this beer. You also get 15% off if you use an AHA card. Had three glasses and walked out with six bottles. 'twas a good day.

    It's not whether the beer is worth $17 or not. I have a problem with the stores in Nebraska being able to buy it at cost for $9.50 and sell it to their customers at $11.99 and we have to pay $17 where it's made. Tell me how any of that pricing makes sense?

    Info I got today is that Coors should have it within the next couple weeks. It's not a matter of getting rid of another LOF out of the warehouse to release this one, they just don't have it. It's going to be part of the third tier LOF (Trans and LaFolie) as to my understanding, thus the higher price tag. I've also heard rumblings of Eric's Ale.

    Nothing makes sense in this crazy beer game. I'm just here to drink and show off my neck beard.

    I'd like to say I won;t be buying any at $17 but I will buy a single bomber because the beer is quite tasty. Real bummer they doubled the price but that is the name of the game these days. Guess $13 for a 750 of Speedway doesn't sound so bad huh?

    And a beautiful one it is. You, me, and SkeeterBoganski need to have a neck beard-off. I may lose, but it will be in a fantastic blaze of glory.

    La Terroir is one of those beers that's a value at almost any price. It doesn't mean I'll like paying more for it, but it won't stop me.

    You just have to hunt a little. Had a friend pick up 3 BCBCS's, a case of BCBS and two Cherry Rye in Seward about a month ago. Not sure why, but double eagle sends the good stuff all over SE NE. Seward, Crete, Milford.... that's cherry picking territory

    My neckbeard, while created in CO, can be viewed in Nebraska for $12. Anyone wishing to see it in CO needs to pony up $17 and get in line.

    It's not called the good life for nothing. Neck beard viewing, high quality cheap beer collecting dust and runza's, what more could a chubby beer geek want for?

    What a weird release. My family lives in Raleigh, NC and only one store in the area so far got it, and they were selling it for $10. Same thing happened with La Folie this year, as most of their stores were selling it for $10-$12.

    As everyone mentioned, price increases suck, but I still think $17 for Le Terroir is reasonable. Hopefully we'll see Eric's Ale again too.
