    Really like this beer from Fulton. Next to War and Peace, it is my favorite from them.

    Picked one up tonight. I had it for the first time in mid-September out of a growler on the Hohenstein's boat cruise. Very enjoyable brew.

    $10 for a 750 of red ale? Wtf? It's a good beer, but seriously, c'mon.

    Are you complaining about the price or the style? Because ingredient cost has little to do with price. And if processing cost enters into it, lagers would be priced considerably higher than ales.

    I love the style, I'm complaining about the price. Steel toe Rainmaker is the same style, a lot better, and half the price. Fulton has more economies of scale as well on Steel Toe. The price makes no sense.

    The bottle and art work is more expensive than Steel Toe Rainmaker.

    I could not pull the trigger on the beer either. BTW it is $11 where I have seen it. I have not had the beer before so unless some stellar reviews come in on these bottles, I will not purchase.

    Cool, I love paying extra for artwork so my recycling bin will look just a tad more stylish.

    False it is rarity that makes it taste better. Did you know they only made 17 bottles of libertine, and they were all hand bottled by peruvian kids illegally imported into minnesota by the nefarious craft brewers syndicate?

    Walez bro.
