cost of red poppy

what is a reasonable cost on the east coast of a small bottle of lost abbey "red poppy ale" there is 12 of them sitting in my local covered with dust

No more than on the West Coast. $15 brewery / $17 retail. It isn't worth any more than that.

thanks man. it's marked at 16.99 for the 2012 vintage. just didn't know where the price point was on this

In PA at my local shop they're asking at least $30 a bottle... I refuse to ever buy it again because of the increase since last year when I paid $18 at a bar. It's a great beer but not worth that much in my opinion.

I would never go to that shop again.

If they were 2011 I would say go for it. The 2012 weren't as tasty.

PA's prices strike again! Southampton Beer Store wanted $23 for it.

I paid $17/375 ml, 2012. It must have been a bad bottle because it tasted like a lager - nothing even close to a Flander's red. Big waste of my money (for me, that's a splurge). Very disappointed. Will somebody please tell me it was a bad bottle??

Tomme got you, bro.

It's not the store, many other beers in that place are very well priced. It just seems to be Lost Abbey and a few others that are outrageous.

hahaha. there doesn't seem to be many of these sitting around anywhere else. is it worth just picking up and letting them age for a bit

Pretty sure you meant price, not price point (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Price_point)... but either way it is around $19.00 here most places.
