    Hey guys--
    I believed that I had overpriced the Backwoods Bastard that I sold in my store this week.
    It was a mistake and I apologize. I made the mistake and at that time I did not believe that I had done anything wrong.
    Again, I made the mistake.
    I try very hard to be consistant with my pricing and try to keep myself equal to other good beer stores in the area. Sometimes, I miss.
    If you were able to buy some of the Backwoods from me this week, please stop in and I will give you a gift card for $1.50 for each bottle (by law, I can't give out cash.....).
    This will also be posted on my Facebook account as well as my website.

    Hope we can still be friends--
    Tim

    Solid response man, I've never heard of a store doing this. Beer karma is in your future.

    Tim -

    I don't get to stop in as often as I'd like... but every time I do it is a great experience. This is a really classy move and I appreciate the honesty. I'm going to make it a point to stop in more often. As Steebo said, I have not seen any other stores do something like this no matter if the mistake was on their end or not. Many stores seem to just gouge on purpose with no remorse at all. You run a great shop and it's things like this that will keep em coming back.

    So you are still getting 4.50 each (18.00/4 pack)?
