I think so.Doesn't the OP's ":rockin:" suggest he is happy with this development?
Your kidding right?At some point, businesses have to start thinking about the consumers. Why do companies continue to feel it's right to maintain their profit margins over providing pricing stability for their customers? The oil industry just gave us the Dirty Sanchez while posting record profits. I can't wait till a company grabs some sack and sets the precedent of giving a crap about the little man.
Sorry, the Green Flash Imperial IPA got me all riled up! =P
^^^Forrest is in business to make money, not to provide "pricing stability".

I get a $4-$5 pint at Toronado in SF, not bad when you consider the markup of someone serving you. We're lucky out in Cali, ain't we, Heinz57?
McKBrew - I highly suggest trying it. Not that it's anything really spectactular ... it's just a damn solid IPA.
Forrest - I don't mean any dissrespect, because I work in Finance and understand pricing strategy when demand is high and [hop] supply is low, but $112.99 is pretty damn steep!

my whole intent when i started this thread wasn't to complain about the price. i really wanted some feedback on the kit and also feedback on pliny in general. i haven't had pliny yet and have always wanted to brew a batch based on things i have read here. i don't however, want to drop over a hundred bucks on a kit that is fairly new to the market. if it recievs favorable reviews, i will absolutely buy it and try it out. i have no problem dropping my hard earned cash at austin homebrew supply. those guys have helped me out more than i care to remember. so someone buy this kit and brew it! or buy it, send it to me, and i'll brew it!
$20 including the growler and they are 67.2 OZ's I was there SundayIf RR growlers are still $17, about $162.
I also made the Morebeer version which wasn't correct. They substituted a bunch of hops from the original recipe which bummed me out.
