    For those of you who've bought single bottles of Positive Contact, how much was the shop selling it for? It seems there's no suggested retail price for a single, as it was meant to be sold as a set (thanks for the awesome packaging Dogfish!)

    Has anyone seen it on sale as it was intended (the full 6 bottles) - what was the asking price?

    So the record is worth a minus amount - that is what I suspected.

    A lot of the places here are just giving the record away for free if you ask for it (as long as you're buying a bottle). My beer guy offered it to me, but I passed - not my style of music.

    Total Wine has them for $9.99. They have a sign that you can buy the entire pack with the record but there was no price listed.

    This will come as no surprise to those living in my neck of the woods, but the always generous folks at the Perfect Pour in Columbia Maryland sent out the following special email to loyal club members back in late June.

    CLUB MEMBER EXCLUSIVE SAVINGS

    A special offer just for you!

    Dogfish Head Positive Contact

    The Perfect Pour is offering you the first chance to purchase one of the limited Dogfish Head Positive Contact 6pks for your collection.
    What is Positive Contact?
    It's a house party in a box. Start with a carefully crafted hybrid of beer and cider, add a helping of hip-hop dub remixes and serve with an inspired multi-course meal. This was released in a dynamic box set of six 750-ml champagne bottles, with the 10-inch vinyl EP and the recipes.

    The beer
    The beer was born one festive night at Eataly New York's rooftop brewpub Birreria. Hip-hop producer Dan the Automator - the mind behind supergroup Deltron 3030 - and Dogfish Head founder Sam Calagione sat at a table full of fresh ingredients and picked out their favorites. They settled on wood-pressed Fuji apples, roasted farro from Anson Mills in South Carolina, cayenne peppers and fresh cilantro. The result is a sweet-and-sour Belgian-ish brew with cider-like notes, 9% ABV and a warming finish.
    The music
    While Dogfish did its thing at the brewery, Dan did his in the studio. Taking tracks from the long-awaited followup to Deltron 3030's cult classic debut, Dan fashioned four dub remixes and pressed them onto 10-inch white vinyl.
    The food
    What's a party without food? Dogfish recruited acclaimed chef and TV personality Mario Batali, loud and fast Joe Beef chefs Frederic Morin and David McMillan, Momofuku's influential David Chang, super-creative Homebrew Chef Sean Paxton and West Coast luminary James Syhabout. Each contributed a Deltron 3030-inspired recipe that's printed on the record sleeve.

    As a Perfect Pour Club Member you have the first opportunity to purchase one of these limited sets.

    We appreciate your business, and hope you will shop with us again!


    Best Wishes!

    ha, knowing Perfect Pour I'm surprised the special Member price wasn't $95
