    Hello,

    I was just wondering what the normal retail price range is for some of the New Glarus bombers. Specifically Serendipity, Wisconsin Belgian Red, and Raspberry Tart. Also a 12 pack sampler if possible

    A friend sent me a bunch and I want to pay him back accordingly (He wont tell me how much eh spent)


    Thank you

    $9-$11 for the 750's (location based, not variety)
    $14-$16 or so for a 12pk sampler

    $9-$10 for the 750s of Belgian Red, Serendipity, etc. might be able to get them slightly cheaper in some places but since you're paying back your friend.....

    mixed 12 is probably more on the order of $16 just to be safe. most stores around here have the regular lineup 6-packs retailing anywhere from $7-$8. though i have seen it as high as $9.50 recently at one particular store.

    Can anyone update this for 2016? Trading for some and want to make sure it's fair on both sides. Thanks.

    MSRP and price at the brewery for New Glarus fruit bombers is I think $12.99. Most stores have them for $10.99 or $11.99. I've seen them sporadically at one place this year for $9.99 (Costco).

    This year I've paid:
    $12.99 for the bombers
    $9-$10 for the six packs.
    $11 for the thumbprint 4-packs

    and I believe the mixer is like $16 - $18

    You guys clearly need to shop at Woodman's.

    Yeah, aren't they $8.99 there?

    I always thought "bomber" was a term that referred to a 22oz (650ml) bottle? All the NG fruit beer are in 750ml bottles.

    A couple of years ago they were $8.99 – I think they're now $10.49-$11.49, depending on which Woodman's.

    BTW, to correct what I said above, MSRP and price at the brewery is $12.50. (Double checked when out there yesterday.) Also it appears that they've come out with new labels for the fruit bombers – almost identical designs, but more color, most noticeably a yellowish "aged" effect on part of the label background.

    You are technically correct.

    Thats still cheaper than the place I picked mine up - Ill have to stop at Woodman's on my next trip to WI.

    I've stopped at Woodman's in Kenosha twice this summer, 2 months apart. 750 bottles were all $9.99.

    In Madison (at Woodman's), the NG fruits typically run ~$11, give or take about $0.50. If you shop at other bottle shops/grocery liquor stores, they're usually $1-2 more.
