Aged Bottle Pricing

Downtown Bar and Grill in Brooklyn has a few verticals available. This might help as a guide, minus the NYC markup.

Typically, $2-3 per year of age on top of the normal price.

 

Second that in general.

To OP: if you have substantial years on a beer, I'd say the estimate is more like 10%/year, compounding. So, a $10 beer over ten years is

$10 - 0 years
$11 - 1 year, etc....
$12.10
$13.21
$14.53
$15.98 - 5 year
$17.57
$19.62
$21.58
$23.73
$26.10 - 10 year.

But to be honest, a ten year beer is gonna be like double that in my limited experience.

Wait, now that I've done the shitty math and looked back at it, inflation seems to be much, much higher than this...

I'm excited to see your results.

 

Sell it for less cuz its old.. Who wants old beer??

Ok seriously $2-3 per year sounds about right but also depends on what the beer is, rarity, and how it ages.. IMHO

 

$2-3 sounds reasonable. The only place I've been that sells aged bottles is a local called 1702. Some of theirs are well priced, some are insane. Insane = 2009 DFH WWS for $30 and Bruery 4 Calling Birds for $22.50. Reasonable = 2009 Odell Wood Cut 3 for $24. Thats about the price I have seen all the Wood Cuts for new at the store. Aged bottles pretty much go for whatever people will pay for them.

 

I feel your leaving out at certain premium for the availability, cellar-ability, and for lack of a better word "hype". I think that there is a price to come up with that concerns these factors, yet still doesn't cost people a kidney.
