    Very excited though.

    Don't forget to check enjoy by date on the bottom left of the label. Bottling date is 6 months from Enjoy by date btw.

    Actually it is 4 months for beers like Sculpin, Big Eye, and Black Marlin. Bigger beers are 1 year from bottling date.

    There's no way this is true. I had a bottle that was 3 months from the enjoy by date, by your logic 1 month old, and it was absolutely old.

    It was at Perfect Pour today...I believe they were charging 15.99 for a sixer of Sculpin.

    It's $11 at cost, most stores will probably have it around $13.99/14.99.

    We're getting in the bombers tomorrow, it was $86 a case(cost)...so probably 9.99/10.99 a bomber. I'm inclined to think that most stores will be getting into tomorrow.

    $15.99 is pretty good.
    Wegmans KoP was $17.99 just a few days ago.

    Such crazy mark ups on a six pack, wow. I'm going to have to worry about how fresh we'll be able to find it if 15.99 is the norm, a lot of people won't be picking it up - regardless of it being Sculpin.

    Bottles we got say '02/03/13' which sure sounds good but it sure has a good amount of floaties(should it?)

    We'll see how it sells.

    Just picked up some Sculpin ($14.99 6-pack) and Big Eye ($9.99 6-pack) at State Line. I believe they also had Black Marlin and Wahoo.

    Bought some Sculpin at Shawan tonight. $13.99
    ..drink by 02/07/13, super clear and clean, no floaties
    Yup, I think I'm liking this a touch more than Two Hearted.

    Got some Sculpin for $7.99/sixer at Whole Foods in DC today. :slight_smile:

    It wouldn't scan so the manager just entered that price. It really goes for $14 or $15 a sixer? Jesus

    Yup, just picked up a sixer and it was $15.49 and a bomber of Indra Kanindra stout for $10 in Arnold Md

    It's a great beer, but I don't know about $16/sixer. Rather drink Two Hearted for $10.

    Big Eye IPA was $11/sixer, but I don't think it's quite as good as Sculpin.

    Big Eye is good, Sculpin is better. Two Hearted is not available in MD (note thread title! :-) )
