    Damn...

    This issue really irritates me and I've stayed as quiet as I could. Extremely high pricing does nothing positive for craft beer. Taking a $4 to $5 dollar product and doubling it is ok with me... tacking on even $2 or $3 more I can forgive. But quadrupling a product's price is wrong, greedy and excessive.

    Agree. I also tried to stay quiet but got pissed the more I read.

    Just keep in mind that dancingbearpub speaks from an honest pub owner's point of view. He sounds like a totally stand up guy that I would be proud to buy a beer from. Is he too easy on TFS? Possibly... but at least he is willing and open to talk to us instead of giving us the run around.

    Completely agree and I will continue to stop every time I possibly can, when around or driving through Waco, at the Dancing Bear. Pricing has never been an issue there. Attitude/#beingfriendly has never been a problem there.

    See how easy that was?

    Support the places that are honest and fair and avoid the places that are not. TFS will certainly survive without me but I will take their advice and find a locally owned place in my area and support it.

    And I disagree. They still need to be exploited for exploiting craft beer. They're still keeping BMC drinkers drinking BMC by the exorbitant pricing of craft. They are not raising funds to cure cancer/aids/monkey pox so they're in the wrong. The one place that is raising funds to help save bats finds a way to support craft.

    #DrinkingFriendly sure does #MakeMeAngry

    Can't argue with your passion. I will just stay away from there.

    Scalpers for concert tickets are in my top 5 list of worst types of people in the world. This is no different. No matter what you do you can't completely rid people who overcharge, you just have to learn to avoid them and hope they take a loss for trying to make such a huge profit. I don't support that kind of gouging in any market. But I guess if you're desperate or that naive to willingly pay that amount then go for it.

    I will undersell them. Anybody who wants a BB3, I have one for the low, low price of only $15. Now that's friendly.

    I am expecting soooooooo many BMs

    I'm certain he knows that. Back in the day everyone thought John worked for Freetail.

    I don't think Scott could put up with jl28r1 for more than he already has to. I know I couldn't.
