    Yup. When I got the receipt I thought maybe they charged me for a pint so I pointed it out to her. Nope, that's their everyday price on a half pour.

    I paid 13$ for a bottle of dfh120, that the most I've spent on a single beer, it's worth it

    Brewdog's Ghost Deer 60ml bottles at £6 each! (3 for £17.99) Haven't drank them yet, hopefully they will be worth it.

    Mikkeller - Calvados George for $18 (8.5 oz bottle) at Stone Liberty Station. Worth it, but mostly as a birthday stunt. But very delicious.

    I just bought a 12oz. Bottle of mikkeller beer geek breakfast for $8.69 today and thought that was high.

    I need to step my game up.

    I paid $29 for Nebraska Hop God aged in Chardonnay barrels and it was not even close to worth it. I

    12 oz. Bottles I paid $8.99 ea for 120 min (got last 5 at the time) and recently paid $7.99 ea for a few bottles of bcbcs (a little steep for me but never had it).

    Bomber most I've paid is $15.99 for a velvet merkin (all fw stuff seems overpriced in my area but it does have to come all the way cross country).

    Sours/wild/Flanders, I did $16 for supplication (but that was at a bar in Philly area cause rr doesn't get out here) and $22 ea for sour in the rye and oude tart.

    $15 for a Framboise from Cisco Brewers that was 3 years aged in a single Chardonnay barrel... probably about a 300ml bottle. MORE than worth it, both several to age.

    12oz Prairie Bomb at 8 bucks plus tax
    550ml Prairie Beer That Saved Christmas 12.00 plus tax
    759ml Prairie Pirate Noir 16 bucks plus tax

    I'm seeing a trend there , Prairie makes really good beer but are really raising the prices up too high , I guess someone has to pay for these guys vacations , on their facebook page they are going overseas often , they just went to Thailand for "Beer Research" because we all know great beer ideas come from Thailand , Right?

    Paid 10.99 for 12oz. of Pirate Bomb

    Also, his in-laws live in Thailand so I wouldn't call it a "vacation."

    They said on their page it was a trip to research for beer , and showed pictures riding elephants , I don't really care what they call it , when Prairie Bomb is priced 100% higher than BCBS they need to get a bottle side beside and ask if they truly believe it's worth twice the money as BCBS , shit The Beer That Saved Christmas was 12.00 for a 16.9 oz bottle , getting carried away

    BA Biscotti Break is going for $29 a bomber in Boston. Clown Shoes Very Angry Beast was $15 and an outstanding BA stout. Is BA Biscotti Break twice as good for twice the price? I highly doubt it.
