I think the high price is strictly do to supply and demand.in a competitive market I think the beer would probably be priced at 8-9 bucks a bottle in Parish still make money. what needs to happen is that Great Raft and Tin Roof and Abita need to get their asses indir and make a worthy competitor. when this happens, the price will come down.

I think this because I see in other places where the competition for your business is high, the price of beers is not nearly so high. Even the small breweries can come in with the competitive price.

Agreed. In addition to more competition from La. breweries, I think if Parish would increase their capacity we could see a price drop.

I agree with all this.

At the same time, i try to keep price point out of beer conversations, because in the long run its all about the taste and your enjoyment. Unless its something like mikkeller where the cost to enjoyment ratio is too high.

Yeah I don't usually jump at the opportunity to discuss beer prices either. Some people on Instagram will hint about how much they spent on their beer hauls that is a clear douchetastic subtle brag.
