Pittsburgh - New Beers & Local Breweries

But don't forget that you have the privilege of driving all the way out to New Ken as well! Can there be a value put on that?

 

You know how it is, though. They're going to charge what people will pay.

Again, WADR to them, H1KB was just charging I think $40 for barrel aged Gratitude... A product that had to travel less than 20 miles to land on their shelves.

 

My comment regarding kids was that I'd be surprised to see something punitive that was specific to kids. There was an earlier (in the thread) repartee about a specific certification that disallows pouring more than one beer per person at a time--it placed specific restrictions, but was part of reconciliation following an issue/citation at an establishment.

Agree with you that laws often escape reason. The only PA laws that I'm aware regarding minors in bars is that they are permitted as they're under supervision of a parent/guardian; believe they are even allowed to sit at the bar, unless there is a house policy (but that's not law). There's also a Pizza Hut exception, which I'm less familiar with, but that allows minors to enter establishments (where food accounts for >50% sales and alcohol <50%) for the purpose of food--though minors present only under this provision are not allowed to sit at the bar.

 

Yup, this is pretty much how I understand it as well.

 

Last year, Hollywood Gardens in Rochester got an entire case of Black Note because the owners was good buddies with a local rep. They didn't have a bottle limit and the price was right, so I bought a few. I wonder if it will happen again?

 

I find house to be ok as far as price goes 20 for a speedway stout is not horrible if u buy it online u have to pay for shipping which is like 35 and to trade shipping is at least 15$ so u make out for out of distro stuff but the ba grat is crazy for 40$

 

Last I saw it there, Speedway was $30. This was about 18 months ago though. I know because I bought one. VE has it for like 13 or so IIRC.

 

Black note is a beer I have not tried yet but haven't really searched for it in trade or around not sure why I haven't seems like a great beer

 

Was there last week it was 20 the allagash stuff I thought was about 10$ overpriced but wasn't horrible.

 

$14 for stuff like BCBS and Black Note is insane, but the only places that sell beers like this for less are Giant Eagle / Whole Foods. It's ridiculous, but I feel like $14 is about par for the course when it comes to Pittsburgh's bottle shops.

Also, while $40 for BA Gratitude is a high price tag, I don't think it's that bad when you consider it was a brewery only release that sold out pretty quickly. Definitely a nice find if you're an out of towner making a visit.

 

I won't pay mark on in distro stuff 14 for bcbs is way to high. Most I paid for anything was 9 for kbs this year for a 12oz bottle

 

He only does landing strips

Anyone hitting up the Meadville spot ? Thinking of swinging in to try bot #boc coconut and imperial breakfast of champions After the gym.

Wonder what barrels this is going since it said we won't get to try it again for 16 months or whatever ??? @Stigs ? AB?

Nah Protein first, then beer. or maybe I will mix them. Haven't decided yet!
