    Hope that's not a preview of what bottles of this will run. Hoping same price as Pirate and even that was expensive. That's a pass at $21...

    Yeah if it is even close to that I will only get the one I owe someone then I'm done.

    Maybe it's just a typo and is supposed to be $12. At least I hope that's the case.

    Yup. I get that there's not much of it but that's a pretty indefensible price. Scarcity doesn't demand $2.00/oz. At a certain point, you should just save the beer for kegs and not bottle it.

    I doubt I can even trade for it at that price. What a cluster.

    Why is it indefensible? I see people asking for or offering up $100s of beer for a bottle of DBH or VSB or whatever the latest hype-whale of the week is, and noone bats an eye. Or you even get comments like...those 12 bottles aren't enough for DBH....blah, blah. How is it any different just because the store or brewery is the the one doing the ******? If people perceive value, they'll pay. If not, they won't

    dbh and vsb have been vetted and proven to be good over hundreds of reviews. for $21/12oz (if that's not a type-o) for a beer with zero to marginal history, i'm going to just point and laugh. i'd rather just save that jackson for a four pack of bcbs.

    Not sure you can prove something to be good. That's subjective. Yes you can prove its well liked by many based on the rating, but that doesn't necessarily make it good, since that's up to the individual.

    Where's the thread about World's Worst Twin (JK/ET collaboration)? Just saw ET retweeted about it earlier this morning.

    Sorry, that's a typo. We'll have that changed shortly. I believe it should be around $9 or $10. - Jeff

    Excited to try both. Hopefully the Dichotomus will last a while since it's not a fruited sour.

    Shouldn't get "chowed" for something that Evil Twin already tweeted.

    I had the same reaction, figured I'd wait until someone else posted it.
