I don’t think this has been posted yet, sorry if I missed the thread.

The article itself is sort of humo(u)rous. Oh no a cork instead of a cap? Then how can it be beer!?!

hopefully they’ll charge around $7-8 for a 12oz bottle. i’ve been in the mood to pay $7-8ish for a small bottle of beer.

I can’t even imagine who is going to pay that much for an old IPA.

I’m hoping it will be an amped up doppelbock or wheat wine type beer.

I don’t have anything against Boston Beer Company, but I’d have been much more excited if they (Weihenstephaner) had contacted Sierra Nevada instead. Of course, from their end, SA was probably a better choice for giving the beer exposure to the general public.

I’ll probably plan on buying this, unless it’s another one of those hopped up Weissbiers... ruins the beauty of two styles of beer for me.
