Where did you pick up the New Glarus? They don't distribute outside of Wisconsin.
Beer trade. I was quite disappointed in my first Toppling Goliath beer, was hoping for much more.
Ok, I love New Glarus….they have a pretty good IIPA…..I try to bring back a sixer of spotted cow everytime I go to wisconsin.

I've only had a few different fruit beers of theirs and have enjoyed them all.

So this new "Pour House" beer joint opened near my house in Gaithersburg, Md. They say they have over 90 beers on tap. Here's the list.

What's the deal with 13oz, 14 oz and 20oz pours? (Stone IPA - $9/14 oz???) Do they have their own special glasses? WTF? No pints?
I know Montgomery Co's an expensive place to drink but………

I feel like James Ford, but beer prices have become absolutely ludicrous at most places. Nearly a dollar an ounce for some of those beers, nutty!
In other news, a friend just made this haul back to DC so I'll be getting a little wacky this evening.

a pint of intense & high alcohol beer isn't a wise thing to serve. it's also expensive to make beers that big, or that are aged, or are made in small batches, etc. so instead of selling you a $12 pint that no one would buy, they offer a 10 oz pour at $8. and yes, many of those beer are served in style-specific glasses.

yup, and some wine costs more than $20 a bottle!
if you're looking for value, can't go wrong with Left Hand Milk Stout Nitro: 20 oz for $8.

Just in general though, those prices are pretty outrageous. I don't mind paying a bit more for a rare/excellent beer, but when a Stone IPA or Firestone is $9, that's wacky son!
