But people still pay the price because it's a better product, people will pay for quality over swill any day. One of my favorite restaurants sells their Microbrews from $5-$6.50 or you can get a 40 of PBR for $2.50 at the place and you never see anyone drinking 40s. And most of these large breweries are trying to put out quality products to compete, Coors in my opinion tastes terrible but they produce Blue Moon which is a fine beer for a budget.
