    I'd buy it for sure. The only one I've seen recently around me were singles going for the absurd price of $29.99/each. Not that that's a good comparison because its clearly a ridiculous mark-up, but $34/4-pack is a good price regardless

    Keep in mind that each bottle is pretty much the equivalent of a four-pack of regular beer. :grimacing:

    Same here. All the WWS bottles I saw (somewhat) recently in LA were either $19.99/each or $29.99/each depending on the vintage.

    There's bottles with 2012 stamped on them.


    Of course, there were also bottles of Girardin 1882 with 2013 stamped on the cork.....in 2012.

    Definitely cheap, but still wouldn't be drinkable for me, that shit is sooooo hot and sweet. I had a 6 year old bottle once and it was delicious.

    The 2012A bottles were brewed in 2011, but released in 2012. None was actually brewed in 2012.

    Shit dude, buy the whole case and trade it for whatever you want. Cheapest I've seen it is $7 a bottle but usually closer to $10-12, as people have said

    I asked DFH about that and they said even though some of the bottles say 2012, they're from the 2011 batch but they leaked over into 2012 with some of the bottling.

    On another note, when are they gonna stick WWS in a Bourbon Barrel??

    So what exactly is "regular beer," anyways? ;-)

    At $34 a 4-pack I would buy 3 year old WWS without thinking twice about it. The trick is to just let them sit for another 2-3 years and they will be amazing.
