Sierra Nevada - Snowpack (Winter Sampler)

They have them at the Super Buy Rite (former Circle Liquors) in Pennington, along with plenty of 12-packs and sixers of Celebration. @BanditoJunkie

 

Count me in with the crowd that would love 3 coffee stouts but not sure I want to buy a mix-pack that includes Pale&Torpedo just to get them as I'll already figure I'm going to end up with 12 celebrations so rather get some non hoppy winter beers in this winter pack from SN

 

I saw it at Earth Fare today but Fresh Market was doing 20% off all beer. So I held out and of course they only had the fall pack at Fresh Market...

 

Oh, I'm sorry, 9/12 hoppy beers in a Winter sampler makes this not worth buying for me. Better? I hope the first part of your post was a joke.

 

Yea man that's better. And no I wasn't kidding, just pointing out your mistake.

 

Just picked it up. Looked good.

 

Offer up a 12 pack of Coffee Stout, & you can take my money.

Skipping the Snowpack this year...

 

I will get one Snowpack just for the Coffee Stout but yeah what a let down. The Summer and Fall Packs were so GOOD! They were on a ROLL!!

I guess I will just have to buy more Celebration...that must have been their plan right @sierranevadabill ?

 

I picked up a 12 of this, so take the below into context...

Probably my least favorite sampler lately.

That's because 2 of the 4 beers are year round anyway, plus I didn't care much for Snow Wit.

I disagree about putting Celebration into the sampler. From a marketing perspective that makes little sense since Celebration is the winter seasonal.

Maybe time to just scrap either Porter or Stout and replace with Coffee Stout??

 

Blasphemer!!!

 

This is an excellent mix 12, but I would also prefer them skip the Pale Ale and put in a Winter Warmer or an Old Ale. Celebration should be in the 12 instead of Torpedo. That being said just bought my 2nd 12 and obviously because of the coffee stout. Guarantee I buy at least another case before Christmas and none of them will go to waste.

 

I haven't seen it in my area as of yet. I'll have to keep an eye out for it

 

A 12 pack of Snowpack plus 2 six packs of Celebration 2015 make a beautiful case of beer.

 

Got a 12er of the Snow Pack and a 6er of Celebration Ale. I'm good.

 

Only bought it for the coffee stout.....

 

Highly disagree with getting rid of Porter or Stout. Those are classics. I could get my Porter fix from Anchor but I like Sierra Nevada's as well. Would like to see Coffee stout stay in the winter mix pack, but give it a better supporting line up.

 

Can't wait for this sampler 12 pack. Although I love Pale Ale, I would have included Celebration instead. I will make this an eighteen pack with six Celebrations on the side. :-)

 

I'm with everyone else in that I am disappointed with the lineup of the Snowpack this year. It was so much better with their porter giving it a bit more variety last year, and this one is a let down after the amazing Fall Pack that I could not stop buying. That being said, it is impossible to pass on for the price (picked one up a few days ago for $12.99) and that delicious Coffee Stout.

 

If anything we need more Porter and Stout on the shelves (I'd like to see less Hop Hunter and Nooner)

 

But that's the issue in my area, it's $18.99-$19.99. At your price I wouldn't think twice, even with being disappointed with the lineup this year.
