He'brew Gift Pack Question + what a great deal

I believe they re-brewed the Anniversary beers for the gift sets. Also, either you are getting a killer deal or we just got hosed in Georgia as those sets are nearly $30 around here, making them a terrible value...

 

He got a stellar deal, they're $30 in NY too.

 

Yep, $30 in SC too which has led me to shy away from it as well. Oy.

 

I was under the impression that this beer is really that old, 6 years old that is. Someone have any hard data on this?

 

$25-$30 around here too. I was goin to get the last one we had around the holiday's, but someone had taken the Hop Manna out and put another Origin in it's place, so I passed. Told the manager before leaving though and he broke the pack down, gave me the glass and sold me the 15th, 9th, and Reunion for like $1.50 a piece. THAT was a good deal, but the gift packs are not IMO. Almost $4 per bottle and the only beers worth that price tag is the 2 Jewbelations. I'd definitely take the OPs deal though.

 

I work in a beer store. The first shipment we got had 10's and 15's. Later shipments had doubles of 15's. So I'd imagine the ran out or something?

 

He'brew re-brewed all the beers for aging in the Vertical Jewbelation blend so I would imagine that the older vintages on their own are re-brewed as well. I highly doubt an 8% ABV beer like Jewbelation 8 could hold up for 6 to 7 years.

This website doesn't site their source but it does mention they were re-brewed.

They are rebrews. Remember last year(2010) Jewbelation vertical gift box? They don't just have tanks and tanks of this old beer lying around.
