    Is it illegal to sell hopslam for 24.99 a six pack? The store a block from my place in St. Louis Missouri is...

    They can sell it for whatever price they want. The brewery/distributors set the MSRP, but thats just what it is...suggested price.

    I passed at $22 a sixer here. I bought a case of flower power for the price of two sixers of hopslam.

    Enjoy

    Not illegal, but me thinks it teeters on unethical.

    But the irony is lots of people wouldn't blink at paying ten dollars for a bomber

    Where are you at in St. Louis. I live in the Affton area and would like to get a hold of this stuff(not that I want to pay that much). Also, (off topic) have you heard of BA Bigfoot anywhere? I've asked around at Friar Tuck to no avail on a date.

    How so? I don't want to pay astronomic amounts either, but the consequence of not having a free market is far worst. No ethics involved. If people wouldn't pay it, business wouldn't charge it.

    What's the name of the store? I'll be sure to avoid them.

    I bought my 2 six packs of Hopslam for $17.99 each at Friar Tuck in O'Fallon.

    $22 a 6'er in south central VA...but that does include tax! Up about $4 from last year. Shrug.

    It was at Starr's off of Big Bend & 40. I have saw a lot of the Bigfoot 2012 but I have not noticed the BA version.

    Illegal? No. But I wouldn't pay that much for Hopslam. Here in Ohio it's usually around $17.99 a sixer.

    And I thought $14 for a 6er of Nugget Nectar was bad!
