    There was a 9th anniversary in my gift pack, the question is;
    Is it six years old, or do they make small amounts of it to stuff in gift packs?
    Really good selction of 8 beers for a great price! (13.50)

    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...

    It was still very delicous, even though it was not aged & I'm sorry you paid 30 dollars for it. (
    Or maybe I got a really good deal)

    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?

    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.
