New in Kentucky

plenty of 70k available at LBS for the LOL price of $25 per, limit 1

 

$25 gets a big FU from me.

 

Tell ATG about it. Usually breweries get pissed when their beer is marked up that much. It's not like it had to go very far or is in a really crazy market. $25 is absurd.

 

Did anyone go by West Sixth for the peach meadoweisse release or know the price? If so, any thoughts on it? I considered running by after work to pick up a bottle...

 

70k and AB noir hit lbs yesterday.

 

I think AtG sells to wholesalers at about the same price they sell a lot of things they sell at the brewery.

$12 per, 2 bottle limit. Heard is good, and there's some peach, but it's not a fruit bomb at all.

 

Nah, that doesn't make sense. Standard markup for a distributor is about 30%, then the retailer is an additional 30%. Put aside LBS's extra markup (70K was $20 elsewhere around town), and it's only $2 more expensive than at the brewery. If they were selling to the distributor for $18, bombers would probably be $30 on the low end at retail. Breweries don't want to anger retailers by undercutting them.

 

Still a few good Grimm sours chilling on the shelf at LB Middletown.

 

When you can find B&L outside the state of KY, that's what they run -- $30.

 

ATG used to go through an importer (and still might for some markets), so that caused an additional markup in some markets. We have people saying 70K is $18-$19 in Chicago, so I think that's at least partially resolved. I believe high cost was more due to the distribution channel than anything.

 

Hit Lexington and Frankfort today.

 

Hey umm now really Kentucky news but I have a Apple brandy noir wanting to trade for a omnipollo: Noa Pecan Mudcake. I'd say These are one par with each other. Yellow bellow or Noa would be acceptable! Please give me an IM I will get back to you.

 

Bottles and Cans is one of a handful of Chicago stores that always charges MSRP. $18.99 is what I bought it at from them.

Really does anyone know where the non super marked up 70ks are? I got one but it was a 25$ bomber. Can't complain though it was excellent.

 

The bottle release event when they first dropped.

 

They had some Noa Pecan Mudcake at Louisville Beer Store the other weekend in the cooler. I bet some is still there.

 

I called them they ran out. I'm looking for a yellow belly more so. But hey they're both excellent anyone ever seen yellow belly in Louisville?

 

Months ago.

 

Unfortunately I missed that one, oh well. Will have to wait until next time. The mud cake blew me away the last time I had it. Chances are I'll enjoy Noa better than Yellow Belly. I don't know if you can too Noa it was awesome for not being aged.

 

Have you tried looking at Sergio's?
