    500 at HF. It's a destination if you don't live in the NE and you might as well get it while you can.

    My biggest beer haul ever was my trip to VT and I can't even guess. BUT I can tell you the trunk was full of beer.

    $600 or so on a beer road trip with the wife for my 30th (FFF, 18th st, bottle shops in Chi Town, and New Glarus)
    Also dropped $450 a few weeks ago at a buddies house, lol. He needed cash and is going on a crazy diet so no beer for him for a long time. Sold me half his cellar!

    I spent just shy of a couple hundred bucks yesterday at Jacks Abby on top of almost another hundred at my local bottle shop. That's probably about as much as I've ever spent in one whack. However, I expect to save that much on groceries because now I can't fit any food in the fridge.

    It's free on a credit card. I try not to count, especially when you find something you have been looking for and your wife isn't there.

    It's a destination if you DO live in the NE too. I've been twice and I think I kept myself down to about $100.

    My most expensive haul was a trip I took to NY this past winter when my family was out of town. I think it came to somewhere around $150. I wanted to pick up as much out-of-distribution stuff that I could find. I did. It wasn't really worth it. Except for the case of Two Hearted. That I will do again.

    I am ashamed to say that I bought a bottle of CBS and 2 bottles of BA Abraxas online for a total of $525. It still stings but dang were they good.

    Tree fiddy just about everytime I go to vt. Hill Farmstead and a stop to Craft Beer Cellar, Three Penny, or Hunger Mountain can get pricey.
