I was also somewhat taken aback by the high price of this beer. Although, not a full flavoured brew I found it refreshing and maybe a nice option come summer. Although, the price made me think otherwise until I noticed that there is a $0.60 deposit per bottle! That went right over my head (and possibly others).On 2003-01-10 09:50, esprit wrote:
Wow...that's expensive even with those expensive ingredients. Our St. Peter' English ale from the UK also uses organic hops from New Zealand as well as organic malt from Scotland and we sell for $2.95 for 500ml which includes shipping from England. Your equivalent price for 500ml would be about $3.70. Regardless, we wish you every success and we look forward to trying your product.
So, if St. Pete's is $2.95 for 500ml, then with the return deposit, the Organic Lager is $2.50 for 500ml. That's not bad at all (if you don't mind trekking that distance to return the bottles)
