Actually, this has been known for a while that beer prices will rise since farmers are planting more corn than hops.

That must be why Landshark was $7 at the concession stands at Buffett concerts last year but $8.50 at the Frisco show last month.

Beer at Frisco is $8.50 regardless of the show.
Was there last weekend and it was that high for Bud and Coors, too. It's what the venue charges.

I like someone that doesn't just sit and complain, they come up with solutions!
