The unofficial all things BEER thread!

Beer...it's too great not to have its own thread!

Last week while perusing the aisles of Total Wine I finally found my first and only sixer of Bell's Hopslam. I've been wanting to try it for a while but could never find it. It's a bit pricey at 21 bucks a six. Not something I would put into the regular rotation, but it's definitely worth it for special occassions! One of the best beers I've ever had...:gj:

One not so great trend I've noticed is some breweries going to four packs vice six packs. Some beers I don't mind spending a little more on...Weyerbacher's Simcoe double IPA/Dogfish 120min IPA, the aforementioned Hopslam...but I just recently saw that Green Flash is now selling their West Coast IPA in four packs instead of sixers...at the same or even a bit higher of a price...I've seen others doing the same thing...I can deal with a slight price hike, but not a price hike on top of two fewer bottles??? That was as surprising as Stone's Ruination going from 11 bucks a six to 18...:O

There was also a show on Discovery called "How Beer Saved the World"...check it out if you have the chance...it was very entertaining and informative! :D

I really love stones Russian Imperial Stout.... I have 3 cases of 22oz sitting in my basement aging. The stuff is awesome....

I stick with bud light, bud light lime, coors light or jack daniels. All cost about 17$ a case of 24 bottles.

With how fast beer is consumed its not worth paying high prices.

at 10.5% on some of these beers it can become more bang for your buck quickly.... When you need to drink 2 beers for my every one how much are you really saving?

IF im looking to get trashed ill drink Jack Daniels. If im looking for a cold drink to have ith friends and relax ill have a Beer, but not something thats gonna cost 4$ a bottle

lol... I don't drink that much anymore so when I do I want something with a little more taste. I don't mind paying $5 for a beer.... I can't remember the last time I drank jack... I usually drink Booker, or Bakers..... Just me though....

Your saying the beer your drink is better cause it costs more and you get less and YOU like it.

Thats your opinion as i have tried almost every imported beer sold in michigan and their all nasty.

To each their own

Here we go...Bud Light Lime = :puke2:

Just kidding...kind of...

This thread was more directed towards the Craft Brew fans...not fans of...ummm...Budweiser...if you don't like it, you're free to move on...:gj:
