    I bought a case for $111. Since there's 12 to a case, that's $9.25 a bottle. Not too bad, considering. Probably the only time in my life I'd pay that much for a case of beer, but its a once in a lifetime thing, so what the hell...

    BTW, I bought it at Pletcher's in State College, PA. They got 14 cases of it yesterday. When I bought it, I asked how many were left. The guy said he still had nine cases. Don't know if they still do, but if anybody is near central PA, it's definitely worth trying there if you really want it.
  • I got 2 for $15 each and had to pay $18 for my 3rd.

    No... that bummed me out, too. It's just a plain white box, with no markings at all except for a "fragile/glass" stamp.

    I'm really considering going to buy a another case and using it to maybe trade some bottles for some comparably valued posters or vinyl. But shipping alcohol (especially out of PA) is a major headache, so I don't know if it would be worth it.

    Who's saying it's not good? Honestly, I haven't seen anything negative about it (except for the price and lack of availability).

    Of course, I haven't seen all that many glowing reviews, either.

    Yeah... but price per bottle, I got it cheaper than anybody else I've seen post here so far.

    For a limited release Dogfish case, that's in the ballpark, in any case (no pun intended, lol). Cases of Hellhound and Bithces Brew sold for about $85.

    $111 is more than a fair price.
