    Word I'm looking forward to this brew too. I'm interested to see how Wicked Weed is going to influence this one. I just don't understand how this is all of a sudden a problem.

    I had this on tap a few months ago.. I added it to BA, in fact. It's real good, but yeah, it's pretty pricy.

    I hope they aren't using perceived demand to price their beers.. If that's the case, DDG may be $150.

    I just can't wait for the DDG release. It should be a breeze with all these people swearing off Lost Abbey because of price.

    I think everyone just spent so much in January that we were just talking out of the side of our wallets.

    For a 375? Damn. Those used to be way cheaper. Do you know how much they cost at the brewery?

    I think they were a little pricier because they were 2012-2013 label bottles

    I'm glad I maxed out. Taste alot like DDG. Veritas 014 in the cooler was a bonus.

    I grabbed a V014 (tastes like tart cherries now) and split it with some old friends and a new one. I wouldn't say it (it being Ad Idem) tasted a lot like ddg since I got the fruit taste and, well, ddg has no fruit, just oak-aged and blended properly.

    I think it was just taken down from the website.

    I was rather skeptical since WickedWeed is a hit or miss for me but I was pleasantly surprised. Not sure it was worth the price tag but still a rather fine brew.

    I enjoyed it. Glad I bought the bottles. The hate was a little too strong in my opinion

    All the hate this release was getting made me drop my expectation on this beer and only went for 2 bottles, after having it on tap I regret not getting 4. Its even better out of the bottle.
