    I was thinking about that as well. Tenner or Zwickel were tempting but I think the answer is going to be Polotmavy.

    I'll probably just go with a Radler. :wink:

    Yikes. What are the prices on to-go 4-packs at the brewery? Just walked away with a four pack of Infinite Jest, checked the receipt, $22! Here I was thinking it was the Six Grain that was the heftier price tag.

    So a cool 60% or so markup. Guess that's for the convenience of not having to drive to Salem??

    This was from a store? That has to be an error. That’s a crazy overcharge. I’ve never seen Notch in the wild with any significant markup.

    One Stop in Haverhill. I bought Allagash White 12-pack, Austin St. Six Grain, Notch IJ. Total $62. My instinct was, "Okay, White is $20ish, maybe it's gone up a buck or two plus deposit. Six Grain must've gone way up (Austin St has always been priced high)." Didn't even consider the Notch being the culprit.

    Is Belmont, MA near you?

    Four bucks a can ($16 for four) there.

    Cheers!

    I could be off on IJ, but the lagers are $14. Even so, as Jack points out, $16 at a CBC. $22 is outrageous.

    Stopped by Salem yesterday. Was hoping for a Jedenáctka draft, but it wasn't on tap; grabbed a liter of the Vienna Lager instead. Picked up a couple four packs, will pop one tonight.

    Has anyone else gotten their February subscription yet?

    I just got mine and it's six cans of Psycho Candy and six cans of Salem Lager, which I thought was odd since they just canned Jedenáctka.

    Curious if it was a possible packing mistake.

    $200 for the mug club was steep to begin with, but man, that $14 Eventbrite charge was just a kick in the nuts.

    A buddy of mine got the exact same. So doesn’t seem like a mistake.

    For those that opted for Krug Club membership, what informed your decision?

    Nothing wrong with a radler to match the weather lately :grin:

    I thought it was a neat concept and I wanted to support Notch with some disposable income.

    I completely agree with @cskollmann about supporting Notch, as well as this will be an incentive for me to get over to the Speedway more.
    Convinced the wife to go tomorrow by mentioning that the New Balance Outlet just happens to be close by. So, if you see an 50-something couple at Notch with New Balance bags - that’s probably us.

    Notch is my favorite brewery.

    I’m also a mug club member at Idle Hands. I like lagers.
