RE: price gouging - cue eye roll here. I hate that the general consumer assumes that higher prices from "big beer" means that their COGS have risen and not that they are padding their pockets. Hence the recent Treasury Department report on competition in the bev alc industry which goes into some great detail about our current market situation (the 64 page barrel of fun that most people outside of our industry won't read). I hope you dig more into this, it's disturbing at the least.
