Seriously, one of the best beers I've ever had. The only thing holding it back is the crazy price. What is it in your neck of the woods?

When I got some last year at a Whole Foods in DC, it was like $23 for a sixer. I loved it n'all, but that is a bit steep for 6 brews.

I think I paid $16 a six pack, but that was in large part because they gave me a full case discount, and also it's the store I always go to, so they cut some off the retail for me.

Bourbon County Stout was $26 for a four pack if I remember correctly. Had two fairly quickly but will save the others for at least a year or so.

Palo Santo Marron and Sam Smith's Yorkshire Stingo are the two most expensive beers I think I've bought. $20 for a six pack and $12 for a pint bottle, respectively.

you found a six pack of Palo Santo Marron? Wow, I've only ever seen 4 packs.

I remember both being quite good. Hopefully they are worth it.

Celebrating that my last beer shipment got there without any difficulty I stopped by the packy:

Sierra Nevada Bigfoot Ale (4-banger)
Goose Island Big John
Southern Tier Choklat
Stone Old Guardian

Had a Lenny's RIPA with dinner and man is that stuff really great. Having it essentially out of the cask, which was actually the R.R.I.P.A. (Rye on Rye) in Saratoga is tops but it really is a great brew.

Guys, I have to say, this may rival this year's Hopslam. The maple syrup infusion is similar to Hopslam's honey.

I almost grabbed the 75 Minute, is the maple syrup really up front or more of an accent?

It is good, but rivaling Hopslam? Eh. Nah.
