I can say Lagunitas sucks is better than abrasive.

Had them side by side.

At this level though it is just preference.

I like both Heady and Pliny, just a bit different types of IPA in my opinion.

Having acces to both would be great, but just having Pliny isn't too bad either. ;)

You guys are all nuckin futs. Envie is better than all of these.












Just kidding
It's tough for me but I think I'd rather Pliny slightly over Heady. But it's so close.

Haha that's good stuff. Should have invited him to have one with you.

I have no idea what he was thinking I was doing with two boxes of beer next to my sausage and eggs...


he was probably thinking to himself, "I wonder which Tigerdroppings FBD poster that is?"

Got a text from a friend of mine that was going to do a trade with a guy and give 2 Plinys for 4 Headys. hew was asking if I thought he was ripping the guy off and I said mos def. Pliny:Heady should be 1:1 IMO.

I don't know how much a 4 pack of Heady goes for, but I'd bet that 2 Plinys for 4 Headys is pretty close $4$-wise

Free market is a funny thing, that way. How do you put a value on a beer? Cost? Perceived quality? Or just plain how badly do you want the beer?

If you have access to a beer A and can't get beer B where you live, you may be willing to pay above market for a beer.

A good part of the value I got from my trades this week is just sharing beer with folks who may not have tried some of the West Coast stuff.

I suppose $4$ it works out, but the beers are on par quality wise and 17oz vs. 16oz.

He just didn't want to take advantage of the guy.

that's understood, and I would feel the same way. That's one thing I like about having homebrew to throw in, I can even things up a bit volume-wise while maintaining $4$ (this ignores the quality aspect though)

Back to OP, just back from my procurement. Matherne's Bluebonnet's five cases down to 4 bombers as of an hour ago. Tim had to run to their other store and that is when one customer bought 2 cases and the guy behind him bought one. I gave him a description of BMoney to see if the surveillance video could ID him. Looked to be about 3 cases left at Calandro's but the two guys I saw while I was back there talking to CJ each had 4 in hand. Talking with one of the guys who is buds with the Mockler craft beer guy (Jacob) and he was told he shouldn't wait more than a day or two if he wanted any. Just an FYI.

Easily my favorite IPA, which makes it probably my favorite beer. Sucks that it's a seasonal though.

why would you sell whole cases at once if you only get 5?

Parish Grand Reserve isn't looking good, if this is how fast pumpkinator is going. They better start limiting them to 4 bottles/purchase or something like that.
