    Where exactly will you be staying? Binny's is likely your best bet, but if we know where you are we can provide some other suggestions.

    Binnys on Grand Ave is your best bet. They had about 5 or 6 cases of it on the floor this afternoon. $13.99 a 4-pack so I doubt it will sell out quickly.

    What’s this? A Marz beer not totally and ridiculously overpriced?

    Still not a great deal, considering they’re 12oz cans, but it’s at least it’s something.

    I had to do the math in my head, but yea, its roughly in line with the $18 to $20 4-pack 16 oz can pricing these days ... but since its 12 oz cans it feels pricier.

    Yea, whether that price range is ridiculously overpriced is certainly a separate argument, but for once marz was not ridiculous compared to others in its peers ... looking at you $12 500 ML bottle of Double Splash... :rolling_eyes:

    (Edit: before anyone says anything I'm not commenting on the quality of the beer itself compared to other NE style IPAs - just saying that its peers are what its marketed as. )

    The nice thing is that price is high enough that casual buyers may pass, so that those of us who want the beer will have a better shot.

    The one that angers me the most is The Machine 4-packs at 13.99.

    It’s a normal pale ale. It’s good, but every brewery on the planet has one, and has been able to price it at 10.99/six pack.

    Came in here to specifically second this. One of the best I've had out of Hubbard's Cave. Had to go back to Binny's and grab an additional bottle I liked it so much.
    Simcoe and Ekuanot juicy hop awesomeness.

    Does Une Anne have any plans to switch to a smaller format? Seems like with everyone else getting on board the 4 pack train they could get left behind.
