They're harder to make, take up more equipment, blah blah blah (but in a serious way). On the other hand, a 4% beer costs pretty much the same to make as, say, a 6% beer. It's less than a nickel a pint difference, so what are you going to do? It's certainly not a whole dollar less. And...are we paying for alcohol? Or flavor? Or freshness? Or rarity? Or variety? Beer prices are not about ABV in America; our taxes are on volume, not ABV. Complicated issue, price.Lew Brysonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04084380741402026573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6521229482537361840.post-39597244238206543642011-11-14T16:17:36.451-05:002011-11-14T16:17:36.451-05:00This post, and the recent one on stout day (includ...This post, and the recent one on stout day (including the porter vs. stout link) have really spoken to me. I'm hoping to try my hand at a homebrew batch of porter/stout or amber ale in the near future. Thank you for the inspiration from this blog - I would also be appreciative of any recipes, instructions, hints, tips, sources, recommended equipment or anything else you're willing to share. Thank you!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18020014833320277451noreply@blogger.com
