New Belgium

[hideouse]

So as a newbie here I was browsing around and read the article about "New Belgium" breweries " La Folie". New Belgium's website states that they are only selling this beer at the brewery and refuse to ship through the mail. So,,, anybody in Colorado willing to act as my agent and get me a few bottles? Name your terms!

Welcome to the site! We have a few active Coloradoans (?) here - fret, Beaver, etc. If you have no luck here, check out the trading forums on BeerAdvocate and RateBeer. I'm sure between the three of them, you can score some.

Cheers!

OK..... let's see; you're in Indiana, right? I just called the brewery and 750ml bottles are going for about $18. Were you expecting this? Lemme know, ok?

you're right, i didn't quite expect that. A result of the small batch size, I expect.
Perhaps couple would be a better word than few . Let me consider it overnight and I'll PM you tomorrow if that's ok with you.
Thanks for the reply anyway.

18 bucks for a bottle of beer ? Does that include shipping to the Moon ?

That's not too bad. That's for 750ml. DFH 120 minute and World Wide Stout are about $8 for 12 oz. I've seen Deus for about $30 for 750 ml.

It's all better than paying $4 for a glass of Bud at a bar! :) Wine is much more expensive as well.
