    How long ago was this?
    I've been to Five Horses a few times in the last 2-3 months and everything has always been listed with a price.
    The first time I went was when Kiwi Rising was kicking around, and all prices were listed then as well.

    Just a few weeks ago and it wasn't on the menu, only my tab.

    Read that it hit Craft Beer Cellar on FB earlier today too.

    Tried this one tonight, I really enjoyed it and think it's well worth the ~6 dollars I paid for it.

    Last time I had Peeper (a week ago) was at Nosh in Portland, ME. Was $7 for a pint, which I don't think was unreasonable. I believe that's about two dollars more than it costs in the bottle.

    Mo should be hitting Boston now (probably same time a store gets NN).

    Just picked up some Mo today, $6 per 50 cL bottle. Look forward to trying it after work. Cheers.

    This is a home run IMO. Nice little blast of hops that even my shredded palate can enjoy.

    Around here it is mostly $7 or $7.50. I buy one bottle of Zoe once in a while if it is fresh, because it is so good. But I would buy Zoe and Peeper all the time if they were competitively priced.

    Solid beers all around. Quite impressed with their dry hopping. When I went down to pick up Thank You Allan yesterday I tried a robust porter and a black IPA and I cant wait for these to come out in the fall.

    Regarding the markup at 5 Horses... Have you looked at rental prices in Davis Square lately?

    If you can't afford to charge a reasonable price for beer then you have other problems.

    Had this beer on Sunday. Absolutely fantastic. If you find it, pick it up. That being said, do you guys pour the yeast right in from the beginning with Maine Beer Co. beers, or do you slow pour it at first. I did the former with Lunch and thought it was a very good IPA, but that I'd had better (smell was out of this world). I did the latter with Mo, and found it a bit better without the yeast poured in. But either way Mo was a world class pale ale.

    I don't know why people are raving about MO. It's a decent beer, but I think fresh Peeper is better. I wonder how much longer Maine Beer Company is going to be pulling your legs...

    I had MO last night. Very hop heavy pale ale, tasted more like a light IPA. I think I tasted some Galaxy hops, but not 100% sure. Enjoyable beer.

    Had my first MO on Thursday and thought it was a Lunch light. Which is what it should be. Love it.
