    Shound have been more specific. Was talking about the raspberry Temptress that was just released today for $13 a bomber. $13 for BBT is worth it because its barrel aged.

    $13 for a bomber of Raspberry Temptress is a good deal. I'd buy Bomb! all day if it was $13 a bomber.

    I thought about it a little more, (clearly I have to much time on my hands) and I think @Techichi hit upon what irks me. I really dislike the 12oz. single bottle format. IMO, it is the worst format for sharing. A 500ml is okay for sharing, but a 22oz. bomber is perfect. As stated above if Bomb! was 13 or 14 bucks for a 22oz. bottle I would be more inclined to buy it more often.

    Thats about $7 per 12 oz pour or about $.60 an ounce. Almost the same price as the Prarie Bombs without any of the barrel aging or cachet of a limited edition Prairie beer. Regular Temptress sells for about $2.50 a pour so you're paying all that extra money just for some flavoring.

    Prairie Bomb is barrel aged? That is news to me.

    $7 for Bomb? I don't think even Okies get it for that cheap. I haven't seen it for under $8.99, and it's generally closer to $10. Bomb isn't barrel aged. Bomb has more ingredients than RT, and should cost more as a result. RT does have "cachet" and doesn't just have "flavoring." It was aged on raspberries, Bomb on coffee, vanilla, peppers, and cocao nibs.

    Techichi - one can buy Bomb! for as low as $5.29 in Tulsa, and plenty of it.

    I usually see Bomb here for 8-12 dollars in Texas. I'm not a fan so I leave it for others... unless someone needs it in a trade that I know..

    I've seen Bible Belt for under 5, Bomb! for less than 6 regularly.

    I stand corrected on the Okie price of Bomb.

    Price has gone up recently. $6.29 is the cheapest I've seen Bomb. (Byron's OKC).

    Hell one can buy Bomb! in Prairies' newest market, Kansas, for $5.99 as well... At $6 or less, no one can deny it's greatness. Too bad it gets marked up 25+% when it crosses the Red River...
