    that's a sacrifice I'd be willing to make for lower priced specialty releases in 12 oz form

    I voted for the 12 oz bottle. Next best thing to a 16 oz can.

    I am starting to see this as a "less is more... or get less pay more", 6/4p of 12's... sames price as 1 - 2 B's. I think B's are a way to charge more, and the consumer gets less.

    Chose bombers because I like trying lots of different stuff and 1 12 oz. isn't quite enough before moving on.

    If I'm buying something because I want to drink a fair amount of it, I'll grab the 4/6 pack or case.

    12 oz. Only time I'd buy a bomber is if I'm having a few friends over to watch a baseball/football game.

    apparently they don't sell twelve ounce singles in your area, that sucks. I love my mixed sixers

    They do at some places, but not my most convenient spots. I've got a good store around the corner (which has preset mixes) and a great selection store about 5-10 minutes away, but they don't do the singles, just have a really good selection. I have to go further for the 'create your own 6er' stores. Do it sometimes, but won't lie. I'd rather save time and gas than a few cents/ounce. If beer prices were a great concern, I'd drink less of it.

    Considering I could buy a six pack of 12 ounce bombers for less than many bombers, it isn't a question. 12 oz bottles every single time.

    Not to single you out, but where do you guys shop that a bomber of the same beer costs as much as a 6 pack? It's definitely cheaper per ounce in a 4 or 6 pack, but I've never, ever seen the disparity that great.

    Bombers have their place in my world I usually buy my beers individually (rarely six or twelve packs) and bombers are good to share, and still get a good pour for yourself....that being said, I prefer 12-oz bottles or cans

    I wasn't referring to the same beer.
