    They're all pretty shocking. Glad that's not one of my beer haunts.

    The most shocking thing is that I bet there are people paying that price for any of them.

    I would drop another $15 for the La Folie in a heartbeat though....

    Seeing that they sit on some of each anniversary beer Bois is pricey, but I have not seen it for 39.99. I would have to go with La Folie because just a few years ago it was quite a bit cheaper. Yes, NB is expanding their cellar and increasing their sour production, but the cost has increased quite a bit since it first came out. Not sure about the either beers though, so I will have to go with La Folie.

    Not shocked by any of these prices. It's par for the course with The Bruery, and I usually see lots of dust on Labyrinth and Sea Legs bottles around here, but not at 21.99

    Pictures were taken at Gilly's in Rockville. I actually bought Bois and La Folie at Perfect Pour for several dollars less than what they're charging here. I go out of my way to tell people to avoid this place. I went looking for Odin's Tipple and found these high priced hookers.

    Seriously, though, doesn't it seems like a lot of places in MD charge more than they should? I can't get anything near the selection here in southern Maryland you guys up near DC/Baltimore do, but there's still a place nearby that charges about $3 or so more than they should (per 22oz/750ml) on bottles of beer - I still vividly remember paying $10.99 a bottle for Enjoy By there.

    Well since I though Perfect Pour had the honors for most over priced beer in MD, congrats on proving me wrong. I certainly will share this info with anyone I hear wanting beer in the Rockville area. Damn!

    The problem is that people PAY $10.99 a bottle for enjoy by. I know the store your talking about, and that is the reason I refuse to ever shop there again. Dude had DFH 120 minute for $14.99/bottle and insisted it was a good deal. Out of his ever-loving gourd.

    15 dollars for a 16oz can of heady seems pretty steep to me, i remember the first time i had it someone bought one for me at a bar with the guarantee that'd i'd buy another, it was only 9 bucks.
