$100 a bottle?!

If my hubby decides to buy this beer, we’re gonna have a problem!

$100 beer
NEW YORK — A hundred bucks might seem cheap for a bit of utopia. But in this case Utopia’s a beer brewed by the Samuel Adams company. It sells for $100 dollars a bottle.

Earlier this week, beer lovers got a chance to sample the high-brow brew that the Hop Devil Grill in New York City. Shot-sized servings were included as part of a $40-a-head beer lover’s four-course dinner.

This is a brew to sip not swill. Some of the patrons say Utopias is closer to cognac or whiskey than to beer.

The bar bought four bottles of the pricey, 50-proof brew.

Marketing. It’s a good thing.
That’s the job of those marketing graduates, to build a buzz, no pun intended, or they don’t have a job.
Probably peed in each bottle to give it it’s unique flavor.

If people want to burn their money, that’s a good way of doing it.
