    Also agree with the Vitus, an incredible beer for the price. And I love both La Fin Du Monde and Tripel Karmeliet but to the original point of the thread, TK is literally almost twice the price so I would say La Fin Du Monde is the much better value.

    Exactly. This whole thread and others like it are pretty nonsensical, due to location. A beer may be inexpensive in its home state and either unavailable or expensive out-of-state.

    A good example is Hoppin' Frog. Reasonable prices in Ohio, double and triple those prices outside of the Buckeye state.

    Sierra Nevada Torpedo and Pale Ale are hard to beat at $12 a 12 pack. My "stock the fridge" beers. As for as bombers go, Lagunitas Hop Stoopid is $4.49 here in NC. A great beer at a great price.

    As a Pennsylvanian I was very, very confused by the title of this thread. Still am, really. Ah well.

    Any of Great Lakes year round six packs. Most places are less than $8 per six pack in my area.

    Curious. Great Lakes beers are cheaper in both North Carolina and "that state up north" than they are in their home state.

    Harpoon IPA, maybe $15/12 on deal. Surprised it hasn't been mentioned already (sorry if I missed it). SNPA usually costs another buck or so, so Harpoon edges it out in best value for me, and as cheap as I care to spend. I generally keep Dale's Pale Ale on hand, and it's a good value, but can't submit it as "cheap." Similarly, Heavy Seas in general and Loose Cannon in particular is maybe an even better value, but not rightly "cheap," even here in Maryland. Also not cheap is Dogfish's Olde School barleywine, but on a dollar per unit alcohol basis, it was more compelling than the Burton Baton IPA next to it on the shelf (same price, 50% more alcohol), and kind of compelling in that regard.

    Boulevard 80 Acre is around $13 for a 12pk here. Seasonals are around the same. Great value IMO.
