Pretty sure Afterlab, is too. He went to 3 different stores, to no avail.
I may not be one of the half dozen, but I AM a 1%'er!

No, you're one of the 1/2 dozen dude... Surdyk took a stab at all the craft beer fans here and is paying the price. It made it to Kare11 tonight :)
Had it been simply a matter of jacking up the price on beer it would have been one thing, but when called out on it he calls us --- "the same half-dozen guys, beer people that have nothing to do, apparently, but drive around looking for beer." -- yeah... The Surly Nation gets irritated...

Remember we're the same folks that got beer laws radically changed in one of the most backward ass beer law states in a matter of 6 months simply due to grassroots efforts !!

i personally dont have a problem with this guy overcharging for hard to find beer....its too bad he's an asshole though. We all know our beer obsessions can seem over the top to others. But he's an idiot for pointing it out when we are his clients.

I get that he is trying to make a few extra bucks with a beer that is hard to find. Maybe a bit short sighted but not the end of the world. What makes him an Ass and a horrible business person is criticizing his clientele. I personally would go out of my way to find another beer store. The boycott thing was a joke but I would not shop a a store where the owner would tell me I was essentially a worthless nut.
