I paid $7/bottle for 11.2 oz bottles of Cuvee des Jacobins Rouge. Comparable in taste/quality, imo. So $12 for 26 ounces is actually pretty fair. Still, that's like half the price of the Bruery's Oude Tart.
Sours aint cheap. Unless you're comparing them to high quality wine.
Every time I'm tempted to buy a bomber, I always step back to do the math and it never makes sense to me. Buying a bomber for $11.99 is equivalent to buying a six-pack for $34.00.
ack...now I know the math and can't go back!
but a lot of things in bombers are not available in 6packs and have much higher ABV
An 11.5% bomber contains 2.92 ounces of ethanol -- at $11.99, that's $4.11 per ounce.
A 7.5% six-pack contains 5.40 ounces of ethanol -- at $11.99, that's $2.22 per ounce.
So the question becomes, is the flavor that you're paying so dearly for worth that much more, or is there something close to it that's a better value?
