    I'll be hitting the same two next week. My most expensive haul was Westy day. 4 bricks. That'll leave a mark.

    My most expensive haul was Three Floyd's loading up on zombie dust and some bombers totaling up to around $350

    I work at a small liquor store with an awesome craft beer selection, so I've never had a "haul". I just buy whatever I'm in the mood for that night. Although I feel like once I justified the purchase of a $10 120 Minute I kind of hit the next plateau where I'm constantly eyeing up $10+ beers and thinking "oh that's not too bad"

    Spent 110 a alchemist. Once in a lifetime, got a case of heady, a four of Celia, a shirt and a glass ( I'm such a tourist) . Also had to take a 3 hour solo round trip from Killington, welllll worth it.

    Just spent $92 the other day on my Florida haul and I'm gonna get a case of Lagunitas Sucks tomorrow hopefully for $43 so I'd be spending $135 in a week. Definitely a new record for me.

    This makes total sense. I spent €350-400 during 4 days in Belgium and brought back no bottles. Guess a grand is easily reached if you start filling a suitcase.

    $20 at Hill Farmstead, when they have it. Or, I see it as high as $25. Sure is a good beer...even if that is a lot of money.

    You guys are crazy. Most I've done is around $50. Then again, I'd imagine if i was out of school and had an actual job, I'd spend more on beer and stock up more often instead of buying small amounts at a time.

    Biggest drop was probably DLD last year (brought ~$200, spent nearly all of it) or the $250 I dropped at Hill Farmstead a couple weeks ago, but I will routinely drop $150-$200 if I'm traveling to Chicago or Wisconsin to load up on things that I can't get in IN.

    I think about $400 at Abe's Cold Beer in PA... That place is crazy. A bunch of Eclipse variants around 30 a peice... Russian River stuff, Big Black Voodoo Daddies, ect ect. The guy at the register looked at me like I was crazy. Not sure if it was because of all the beer I was buying or because I was pitching a tent from all the Eclipses I scored.

    About $400, most of it on Backwoods Bastard, BoltCutter, and Imperial Stout. Dh is stopping at Founder's for me today, hopefully he doesn't top that.

    I have a friend in the area and he was able to drive there and buy some for me and then ship it to me. Sorry, I should've clarified that in my original post. Sorry if I got your hopes up... :slight_frown:.
