Why Is Beer So Expensive In Oregon?

Why is beer so expensive in Oregon?  Let me tell you A Tale of Two Six-Packs.

Last October when The New School posse was doing some post-GABF beer shopping at a Denver liquor store, I was excited to find six-packs by Dry Dock Brewing. It was a Colorado brewery I hadn't heard of before that trip, and I had really enjoyed their gold-medal winning mild ale at the festival (they won 5 medals in total at the 2013 GABF).  Checking beer in your luggage is easier when it's in cans, so it was a no-brainer to pick up a sixer of Dry Dock's Hop Abomination IPA.  Even better, the price was right:  $6.99.  And that was not a sale price, that was the regular price of the beer.
