Lagunitas - Sucks in Six Packs

Sucks quarts were shelf turds in CT too and we got the sixers.

 

I just skimmed through the first 5 pages and may have missed it, but it case it hasn't been brought up yet I figured it was worth mentioning that Sucks in 6pks is now a year round offering.

 

You mean in the middle of all the stupid shit in this thread you couldn't find a useful post? BA.com meta now.

 

That sounds both dangerous and delicious. I have never seen it on tap other than at Lagunitas and I live a few hours away from the brewery, not that I'm a bar fly or anything.

 

mine was bottled April 22nd, but still tasting mighty good!

 

My local pub got a keg last month.

 

Finally found these last week. Dated 125. Finished the 6, went back for more and they were gone. I hope this isn't going to be like the Enjoy By sixers that flew off of shelves. It'd be nice to have it hang around for a bit.

 

I see this as more of a positive thing in that since it moves fast enough that the stuff on the shelf is fresh. That was the problems with the quarts where they sat there and were always 3+ months old.

 

I definitely agree with you on that. There are still tons of quarts sitting around bottled last year. I just hope there are enough sixers to go around and not create another frenzy.

 

You're absolutely wrong there. Sucks in the 32oz bottle is sitting on the shelves everywhere. 6 packs of Sucks always sell out in St Louis. Believe me when I tell you that if it were available for St Louis, it would be in the stores.

 

I love the 32 oz. bottles and have no problem finishing it in one sitting. I put a warm one in the freezer at 0F for about 1 hr and it doesn't freeze because of the higher alcohol content. DEEliciuos ice cold and it stays cold until the last drop. I won't mind 6 packs at all, but I hope they keep making both.

 

My problem with the quarts is less to do with being able to finish one and more to do with the price. It's insulting that they're pricing at 6.99 a quart (21 cents per oz) here in CT when sixers are 10.99 (15 cents per oz).

 

Edit: Answered my own question.

 

That is pretty shocking as Breski in Harrsiburg and Beermart in Reading have had this for a couple weeks now. FWIW, case at Beermart is $33.99 and they have a stack of it. Breski is $36.99 and they have stacks as well. To whom ever asked the question, yes it is available in kegs. 1/2 barrel at Breski is $193.99.

Also note worthy is both locations have Lagunitas Equinox in stock as well. Had it on draft yesterday and it is rather tasty.

 

Anyone seen sucks in 6 packs in the Denver area that's fresher than a march bottle date? I've seen a few but all around the 072 Julian date. Need to find some fresh ones!

 

Fort Collins here, but last week I saw 92s at Supermarket and 131s at Wilbur's. In my opinion, the 92s are starting to turn into a sticky mess. The 131s are really nice and juicy still. Which reminds me... I need to go get more of these little gems

 

Anyone else notice they upped the ABV from 7.85% to 8%?

 

Sixers bottled 131 (May 11th) at Argonaut today for $8.99 each. Hell of a deal. Drinking one now

 

I am still drinking the 072s.....they do start to lose it somewhat once they get a little older! still good enough to drink but they start to lose their tropical taste.

 

Just picked up a sixer & tried it for the first time. I thought it was too sweet for me, but I really liked their Sumpin' Ale.
Ahhhh...to each his own!
(Always have been on a Michigan Beer Kick- I have finally been making more of a point to try out of state beers.)

I am just glad we have a great beer store locally.
