    No, but I'm prepared to guess wildly and be wrong!
    Ryeway - $30 - No limit
    Maple Jacket - $40 - 2
    Dark Mode - $35 - 3

    Would be a little bummed if Dark Mode hits that high of a price point.

    Since Dark Mode is basically just a BA stout, I'd like to see it at $30 too. Not sure it will be though.

    I think @ktr5010 is probably right about Maple Jacket being $40, though, but I hope it's more like $35.

    Maple Jacket is entirely new, right? Have their been any other maple barleywine Sanctuary beers?

    On this note, has anyone ever had another maple barleywine beer anywhere else? I have no reference, as I've never heard of one.

    None that I remember, and a search of their entries on BA don't show any barleywines with "Maple" in the title.

    Barleywine adjacent since it's a wheatwine, but Maple in the Wood used maple in addition to being aged in maple barrels. Maltvin & Sulla Terra used maple barrels but I don't believe the base beer had any maple.

    Have Vanilla Deth and/or Straight Jacket gone out for distribution yet? I’ve been checking in weekly at Binnys and my locals, but they haven’t seen or heard of it yet.

    I just had my first tasty taste of Dark Mode and I think you'll be into it. It has an unexpected nutmeg, cinnamon, holiday flavor to it that seems to have come completely from the barrel and is really really nice and very approachable/likable.

    I'd like the cost of cans, ingredients, barrels, freight, etc. to not be going through the roof too.

    I meant no disrespect. I understand costs are rising substantially. I just meant given that DT is $25ish at Rev, I'd like to see Dark Mode be at $30 (which it is!), since it's an analogous beer. Different style, but not something that would drive the cost to $35 it doesn't seem like. That's all.

    Doesn't water compose 95% of the ingredients in beer?:wink:

    The reason I guessed $35 was that we don't know if this is going to be a one-off or if it will continue to be a beer the brew yearly (and in bigger batches) where it could be used with adjuncts or VSOed. I hedged and split the difference between $30 where the more expensive yearly beers land and $40 where the adjuncted/one-off non-VSO beers land. Shouldn't have hedged.
