Grocery Store Beer

I'm old enough to remember 30 racks of AB INBEV style beers being all you could get at grocery stores. This is a new high for me:

That's the unit price. It's $6.50 per bottle. Pretty standard.

The Rochefort 6 is the most expensive in my area at $7.25. That's because of its limited production.

Your lucky! The 6 is always the most expensive anywhere I've ever bought it. Makes sense. Rochefort makes the least 6 compared to the 8 and 10.

The 10 is $6.99 here in Iowa also. Such a GREAT beer. Someone was telling me recently that that stuff is crazy cheap for a case in Belgium or somewhere in Europe. I was jealous as hell.

Even by the standards of our day (i.e. "Craft" beer everywhere) Wegmans is a cut above. They put all the bottle shops in the area to shame.
