    i’m 99% certain they had Tete v16 magnums to-go at the last anniversary party in December.

    A whole three of them.

    Since somebody in this thread had the first one a while back way before that sale. :whale:

    there should be 4 more at SP for festivals and what not. (possibly 3 actually. I know one was drank by the staff but not sure if that was #9 or included in the 8)

    IIRC the King said there were 8 total

    Casey magnums were once $60 and the glass cost them an extra $10. Magnums in the wine world are essentially double the price of the 750 ml. I've said it twice and I'll say it again, the SP magnum prices are stupid and I'm stupider for owning one.

    but there isn’t a premium on the 750... isn’t it exactly double the cost of the one half it’s size? I just bought the smaller format since I know I’ll probably drink it alone

    I believe there is a premium on the price, but I didn’t see anyone mention specifics other than for Casey magnums above.

    For example, I have a Hill Farmstead Arthur magnum in my fridge. It cost $45. A 750 of Arthur is only $10.

    I’ve always understood it as there is a premium cost in producing that size glass so it’s going to show up in the price of the beer regardless if the beer is something special or not.

    That's a good call. For some reason I was thinking the 750ml variants were $5 more but looking back at Fuzzy and seeing Raspe out there right now, the prices were/are exactly twice the cost for the larger format. The 1.5L bottles, however, much different story. Thanks to @bread_c for the explanation above - a less acidic version in the larger format would tend to make sense as the fruit, yeast, etc. is spread out over a larger surface area as it sits/lays in the cellar over time.

    I will see that while I've preferred the magnums the price difference (and the added challenge of having an occasion to go through 1.5L) generally keeps me from buying / trading for them. Still bummed I missed the Unblended 41 magnum by one person though.

    CdC b2 announced to LC members. Sounds like OdB on steroids but possibly inspired by SARA? Said it was done around the same time as Sunsets.

    I hope they release limit info before go live so I don’t have to panic when I’m buying. Feel like these will go fast

    I foresee a very quick sell out on this one. Wonder what the limit will be.
