    Interesting, I just assumed the FBD would be $15. Fine either way, thanks!

    They are looking at Friday but I would call because it may be ready late afternoon tommorow.

    From what I can remember, here's a breakdown of past prices for growler fills:

    $4 = empty growler
    $10 = Sea Hag, Elm City, FBD, Galaxy, Ghost Pigeon, Gold Stock, Scrumtrulescent, Alpha Weizen
    $15 = Gandhi-Bot, 668, Coriolis
    $20 = IST, Wet Willy, Friar's Quad
    $25 = Premeditated Murder

    Basically, the higher the gravity the higher the price. Pretty straightforward.

    Speaking of Premeditated Murder, anyone still see that on the shelves anywhere in CT? I have a bottle in the cellar, but wish I would have gotten a few more. Really enjoyed the bottle I drank.

    I still see a lot of the Quad, and Wet Willy, but that's about it in the 16.9 bottles.

    so, i am reading this right, correct - they are NOT going to release it? weirdly worded.

    Yeah, I dunno, I avoided commenting on that to see what other people thought first. I can't decide if they are or aren't going to

    Honestly I'd probably still buy some of it, but I can understand them just dumping it. Brand image and all that

    The more I read into it, the less I think they are going to actually put it out there. Guess we'll have to wait until someone from the brewery weighs in.

    It is oddly worded, but I hope they dump it (or take it home, or give it to their friends...). It would be very odd to advertise you've brewed a beer not up to your standards, and then still put it up for sale.

    I thought the suggestion to call it "Ugly Duckling" was pretty funny... I'm interested to see how off it is
