Ditto.  Except for the super swanky hotel bars, not sure I've had a bottle of domestic for more than $5 in DC...

well, domestic is a misleading term.  i mean, i've been to places where obvious domestic beers <cough>sam adams<cough> are not listed under domestic prices because they are considered as a microbrew, which is, apparently, a separate designation.

I know, I know...the whole microbrew thing.  Which Sam Adams is SO not, and I don't think Yuengling is either, but that's just me.

 Yeah, since 9:30 and Sonar seem to be getting alot of similar shows, I think I'll be choosing Sonar more often. Last time I was there I think I remember the prices being lower than 9:30's old prices.

Yeah it's $3.50 for a bottle of Yeungling at Sonar. Seriously, $6 for a Yeungling that is borderline mass production (Bud/Miller/Coors) is way too much. You've got to be kidding me that it's priced out as a microbrew. With prices like that, I'm glad I live close by where I can do a bunch of drinking before seeing the band play. So what is Guinness priced out at now, $8 for the can?
 
 It seems 1 beer = 6 pack grocery store prices.

 see, back home normal was $2 for a bottle of yuengling. at the clubs it was $4. so twice as much. dc is at least $3.50, so $6 seems about right to me

There are places in Pittsburgh where you can get a pitcher of Yunegling for $3. Most of them are of the college-dive bar variety, but those are the best kind. Never thought I'd be nostalgic for Pittsburgh, but I do miss that.

I buy beer for the local teens, and they usually let me drink with them...FOR FREE!!!

PBR is cheap everywhere. You can get a 30 pack for about $12 in the College Park/Greenbelt area. Wonder how much 9:30 would charge if they stocked it...

Is this a recent phenomenon though, the $6 Yuengling? I feel like it hasn't been this expensive for long.

hahahaha.  first off, there are no hipsters in south baltimore!!!!  hippies maybe, more crackheads and hookers though. but they're coming, and when they get here, i am thinking SoBo, more than SoBa.

Actually, it's SoWeBo.
 
 You're right about the demographics however the hipsters are only a few of the tourists who wander in and out of the neighborhood.
