    Didn't "Dogtown" (aka Tony Magee) reply to another - and now apparently deleted - thread a day or so ago on this very subject and say that the beer has been brewed and will be bottled/shipped soon?

    Anyone else remember that thread? I thought it had been merged into this one, but it appears it was axed completely instead.

    I saw that too. Lost in the merging of threads, I suppose. The good news is that the wheels are definitely in motion.

    This, a million times over.

    I'm more likely to purchase Sucks on a regular basis now. I'd rather buy 2 pints worth when I feel like it, instead of having half the sixer sit for weeks while I drink all the other beer I have laying around.

    I am Ok with the 32 ounce bottle but I wish you had taken the great leap to screw top 40s for the telling the spouce I had one beer honey, honest! Also would be cool for the you tube gomers chugging a Lagunitas Sucks 40!

    It's shitty states like Florida that killed your dream by making any containers over 32oz illegal.

    Only beer. Florida white trash has gotta have their Franzia and 2L bottles of Jack Daniels.

    Because laws make perfect sense!

    So 32 oz is two american pints. I don't see a problem. Split it with someone or drink two pints.

    I think a 32 oz vessel is absurd as the only option. Should be in 4/6 pks too.

    Considering that Tony has already said that part of the reason it's in 32oz bottles is to lower demand, and therefore make it easier to keep up with demand all year... No. No it shouldn't be. I'm guessing they'll still have it once a year in 6-packs for the people who refuse to buy the 32.

    Wait, am I reading this wrong or is he saying that Sucks will be in a 22oz format now instead of the 32's?

    If it's his goal to reduce demand that will do it, guys will think twice before opening one. Somethimes you want 1 not 3.

    You're reading it wrong. He's saying that the glass developed for Sucks by the glass company won't have any custom Lagunitas branding (ala DFH or Green Flash bottles), so other breweries will be able to use the format if they want.

    Hell, here in Ohio most of their bombers are only $4.99-$5.49. Lagunitas has amazing pricing! I just got a growler of Maximus for $9.99! How can people complain about that?

    I don't get the bitching on price--the price is extremely reasonable. I will, however, be drinking less Sucks than I did last year because I'll only drink 32 ounces in one sitting on the weekend. Sucks was my perfect everyday beer last winter--affordable, and in 12oz bottles, so I could enjoy one during the workweek. I hope it's available in 6 packs as well as 32s so I can continue, but I'll still buy it, even if it's not--I'll just drink a bit less.
