    Ducked in on the way home to grab some Founders IPA. I don't go there that often though wonder why the pricing is so far removed from Dans. Wouldn't Dans be the direct competitor? Noticed $10 difference on six packs from Bridge Rd, $3 on Hop Hog four packs and around $2.50 on Sierra Nevada six packs.

    Yep - dan's probably has better deals with their supplier.

    Let's not forget that on those products that you found price differences on are products that used to be exclusive to Dan's only and I wouldn't be surprised if there is still some sort of carry on effect from this exclusivity on the cost to 1st Choice of buying those breweries' beers.

    Back in the day they were when they first came out - talking dans vs. 1st choice here not independents

    It doesn't sound like either of those breweries (and that importer) to lower their prices for Woolies. Probably just different pricing structures (DM versus 1C)
