    Yeah, maybe this time it was a smaller shipment. Feels like places immediately ran out.

    I've never seen it here in the capitol district. It just doesn't show up here while most other Maine Beer co. Stuff turds up the shelves. And after trying mo and zoe I REALLY want to try it.

    I picked up a few bottles at a small store in New Jersey a few weeks ago - I was very surprised to see it and have not seen it again in NJ. I also picked up a few bottles at Superstar in Huntington, NY while visiting family over Thanksgiving.

    Beverage Barn in Garden City Park had a good supply when I was there this weekend. I really like Lunch but every time I buy MBC's stuff I question if if it worth the price. $9 a bottle is crazy.

    $9 is high. Selling price was $6.99 in NJ when I bought it.

    I dont love Lunch like some people do, but in general their prices are nuts. 7.99 for Red Wheelbarrow, very good beer, but 7.99 for a 16 ounce beer is crazy.

    Yea... MBC seems to be think that because they sell their bottles at 16oz that justifies the $8-$9 price tag... altho if they sold it at 12oz the equivalent would be $6-$7.. so basically $25 for a 4 pack of Lunch which I feel no one would buy... you can get a highly regarded barell aged stout 4 four pack for less... but as long as it keeps seeling out the price will remain the same and only go up... it is however one of, if not the best APA I've had so every now and again its worth it but I have passed it up before for some flower power....

    Same here. I have had Lunch a few times. Each time it was a very fresh bottle. In my opinion, it is an above average IPA and the price is just insane($6.99 or $7.99 per bottle)
