ith everything increasing in price, and no end in the recession on the horizon, will craft beer price itself out of existence?
I believe it will.

There are still a lot of reasonably priced craft beers. Sierra Nevada and Boston Beer Co have cases of relatively inexpensive craft beer in the warehouse stores like Costco.

Now some of these $10 bombers and $20+ 750s may struggle with or without recessionary issues.

Not to get too political but those GDP numbers are......fishy.

From your article:

Some analysts are concerned that the US financial stimulus measures were the underlying reason why the US economy returned to growth in Q3, rather than any fundamental recovery.

I don’t understand why I keep seeing places bringing in more of this Italian stuff. I don’t know what you guys pay for it in California, but here there aren’t really any of them going for less than 18-20 bucks for a 500-750 ml bottle. They’ve all been sitting there for a year now, and there’s no way they’re going to go anywhere at those prices.
