    Unibrau Ephemere, Not that it was terrible but it was the fact that I bought an entire case thinking that it would be great. It turned out to be so so but for 55.00 bucks for an entire case I was a bit underwhelmed.

    Weyerbacher Insanity. Not that it was a bad beer, but didnt live up to a damn near year old BBA Barleywine with a $5 price tag. Heresy was good and worth the $3 I paid.

    Yuengling Lager. Not so much the beer. I just paid way too much for it.

    Dude, I'd happily fork over $23/bottle.
    Where I live...IF you can find it, it's about $30...and delish.

    Was aware of issues with BA Yeti, but this is the first I'm hearing of issues with BA Old Ruffian.

    Traded one nasty beer for another, sounds equal. We're both sides disgusted?

    Leinenkugel's Summer Shandy (beer and lemonade. bleh.)
    Leinenkugel's Berry Weiss (tasted like cough medicine)
    Moosehead Lime (100% artificial tasting)
    These were bought for my wife who likes when the bars stick a lemon or lime wedge in a beer.

    11.11.11 was a drain pour for me after I had it paired with a 12.12.12 and that's a huge deal for me as well.

    Also traded some Heady's to tray a bottle of Imperial Biscotti Break and while I thought it was pretty good, I have been much happier with other trades

    Dogfish Head Positive Contact. Same result as the first one I popped (thank god I only bought 2 when this came out). And to answer the thread's question: yes, I regret purchasing this:

    The first Oude Tart I bought was worth it to try. It's the other 3 sitting in my basement that I really regret . . . .

    Really, anything is worth buying once. I don't regret buying anything, even if it's a drainpour. But having bought more than one bottle of a beer I hate is where the regret begins.

    I for one adore Southern Tier and Pumking is a fav of mine. I buy a case of it a year and pour it when I am in the mood!

    +1 on that. I had the Lemonwood and it tasted like club soda mixed with a Glade scented oil plugin...

    Wild Blue Blueberry Lager. I know, I know, I feel like an idiot for even mentioning it. If you haven't tried it, I'll save you the pain and discomfort. Imagine taking a mug with three Alka-Seltzer tablets and two packets of Sweet-N-Low at the bottom, and then fill it with the liquid from one of those blue unfrozen freeze-pop things (you know, the ones your Mom bought when you were a kid and stuck in the freezer for a "cool treat"?), pour in a half ounce of Everclear, and you're suddenly a long, LONG way from common sense.
