    SN 12-packs used to be as low as $10.99 in NH. And would stay that price for weeks at Market Basket

    That's less than Bud here. Nuts.

    Yep. It was less than premium macro (e.g. Corona) in the same flyer.

    Think I'll grab a 1/2 barrel this year if I can. I usually ending up getting a couple sixtels.

    If I saw it at under 12.99 a 12 pack, I would not be able to control myself and would by a few cases. A perfectly made beer, that has so much complexity and goes well with many foods, but is drinkable enough to have as a multiple glasses as well. A really special beer...

    Went back to Market Basket in Plaistow this am & got the $12.99 12-pack. Can’t wait to crack open a few during football today.

    Grabbed two 12-packs at the Portsmouth market basket today. Can’t wait for the day to be over.

    You guys suck, we won't see it for a good couple of weeks in CT. I wonder what the wife would think if I took a half day tomorrow, drove up to Portsmouth for a case of Celebration, then stopped at TH on my way home and missed my daughter's last volleyball game. That would be ok, right?

    It's at my local liquor store so I have some already and didn't have to drive far, I've never been to Tree House but can get Trillium quite easily (and have some in my fridge right now), and I don't have children.

    That being said, I had a Trillium Dialed In (Pinot Gris), a Lagunitas Born Yesterday, and then a Celebration Ale (which was fitting as the Patriots game ended) with the Patriots game on Sunday.

    Celebration Ale is tasting great this year and was the best beer out of the three. This is my very long way of saying, yes, it would be perfectly ok (maybe skip Tree House so you can possibly save face and catch some of the game :wink:).

    Preach - my opinion too. SNCA always grounds me every year as to what constitutes a great IPA.

    Certainly my OG Fanboy beer. I've been looking forward to it every year since the 90's!

    I'll be looking for it tomorrow in NECT. I have a yearly tradition where I'll wait till Halloween is over (and I drink the rest of my pumpkin ales) to crack into my first Celebration of the Year. I usually order a couple sixtels and more 12 packs that I care to admit.

    I’m for sure taking a bunch of SNCA in the Radio Flyer wagon during trick or treating this year.

    Just picked up a 12 pack at Market Basket in Salem, NH for $12.99. Great beer, great price, but too much cinnamon this year. :slight_smile:

    As mentioned before, one of the best things about this beer is that despite it being out now, it will hold up really well until Christmas

    Celebration has become the de facto "nice" beer at our Xmas parties for years now
