    Eastern District in Greenpoint had this on the shelf yesterday. Save yourself a drive to Elmsford for a minimal mark-up.

    Cheers!

    Eastern District has Italy the reasonable price of $18. Well worth the unique brew that it is.

    Considering we had a discussion yesterday about it being 13.99 in quite a few places (less than at the brewery), $18 doesnt sound that great.

    All those places are up in Westchester, unless you are buying in bulk it's a good deal for city folk.

    Beer Table in GCT is easily the most outrageously priced beer place I've ever been into. Everything is usually at least 75% mark up ... except the growlers which are totally reasonably priced ...

    Anyway saw Hops N Roses in Westchester for $14-15 ...

    Cant stand the pricing there: 52 for fruet, 30 for Parabola, 27 for FMB... absolutely crazy, but a decent last resort if you dont have the time to chase releases since the stuff usually sits for a while at those prices.

    Sounds about as crazy as Bierkraft in Park Slope...

    Eagle Provisions had it this weekend for 17.50. Bierkraft had a couple bottles left as well for around 20.00.

    Does this stuff cure male pattern baldness or something? Price per ounce is through the roof.

    Do you need a cure for male pattern baldness? I just might have it.

    Not yet, but if my dad's any indication, we'll need to talk in a couple of years.

    I opened one a couple weeks ago and it was ok, nothing magical. A bit over the top floral and not sour enough (for my liking). I loved Mother Barrel though, I wish they distributed that one :slight_smile:

    ^I'm with you on that. Gonna sit on my bottles for a while to let the flowers fade some and hopefully allow the brett to become a bit more prominent.

    Yeah, saw it yesterday at Whole Foods Tribeca for $16 or $17, that's some Lost Abbey pricing.
