Just went a couple days ago to experience the Treehouse hype for the first time. Beer was great, but I was really surprised at the prices. Everything is the same - you buy $8 drink "tickets" online and scan at the register. Perhaps my yuppie is showing, but that seems super reasonable considering what average to decent breweries and taprooms charge. Hopefully they don't jack it up a bunch when the place gains popularity.

The place is already super popular and doesn't need to jack up the prices for profit. They have only rarely raised prices on existing products, and they explicitly called it out due to an increase in hop costs each time.
They know they can make enough money limiting you to 3 $8 drinks, and would rather make sure the experience is perfect rather than profits be absurd

They've kept that pricing pretty consistent at their other locations and have been pretty damn popular for awhile. Hope I'm not jinxing it for everyone but it's crazy their prices haven't gone up more with how high they keep their quality, the atmosphere/cleanliness of their public pour spots and how they treat their employees. Legit have never had a bad encounter with an employee at Tree House.

Isn't that the truth? Some of the employees there today were there 7 years ago when I started going to their old location in Monson. They just seem to hire good folks, and most importantly - treat them really well.
