Do you buy them by the can or in a six pack and how much $ normally

---

4 or 6 packs for the 12 to 16 oz cans or bottles. It depends on what it is but the price range is anywhere from 8-15 bucks probably. They're is also bombers which are 22 oz and 750ML bottles available that range anywhere from probably around 4 bucks doe the cheap stuff on up to 30+ for the rare stuff


Some places, like calandros. break up six packs and you can buy single bottles of stuff to try a good variety

Both. I typically go build a couple 6 packs and buy a couple big bottles. If I really like the beer I'll buy a 4/6 pack of it. Best piece of advice I can offer is to go to a store and take your time a build a 6 pack with 6 different styles. You may not like one or or two of them, but when you do find something you do like its a little piece of heaven.

You're welcome to join the club, friend! We'd love to have you on board. Years ago when I first started drinking I started with typically Abita beers. Lot of Amber, lot of Turbodog. Amber especially is available virtually EVERYWHERE. They caused me to migrate towards brown ales, stouts, and porters. Didn't care for Pale Ales or IPAs at first. Then I had Southern Tier's 2X IPA which changed my perspective entirely. Now I drink more IPAs than any other type.

My advice is to just be adventurous. You don't have to spend a whole lot to get a feel for different styles. Once you find one or two that appeal to you, focus on exploring those and figuring out exactly what it is you like about them. From there you can come here and get other recommendations from us or chat with bartenders or the people that work at places like Calandro's. You'll learn a lot that way. Eventually you'll probably find that you're more receptive to styles you didn't initially care for as much because your palate has become more refined. It's a process, and a damn fun process at that. Happy drinking

My man is doing work on some CCB's today...

Those IPAs aren't getting any fresher.

The browns cans last awhile longer

Welcome. Like others have said. Do a little reading about beers and most importantly just start trying new beers. You'll start finding styles that you like and beers within styles that you prefer. Main thing is trying new stuff.

FBD after mowing the yard is a LM Backwoods Belgian. First time trying this one and I like it.

I've got my eye on few things to send you on the next BXN.
