    If I were getting a case I'd get one of these...
    Southern Tier 2X Stout
    Green Flash Double Stout
    Ten Fidy
    Old Rasputin (of course)

    if you can get it, stone's RIS, or BCBS but I HIGHLY doubt you will get a case of that anywhere.

    Yeah you're right, I see it for about $15 but don't get it nearly as often as I'd like to because of that. A case... ouch.

    Bells Kalamazoo is one I could imagine by the case. Not many others.

    If you were asking this in a month or two, definitely Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout. There's a place near me that usually has it for $5.99 per 4-pack. I've started buying a case to age in addition to a few 4-packs to drink immediately :grinning:

    Bell's Expedition Stout should be making it's anual appearance soon too. I'm planning on getting a case myself once it finds it's way to GA.

    That's an awesome price. We still have lots of 2011 here on the shelves in NC. It's $7.99 here, which I still consider to be an excellent value.

    A case of stouts for a week or two; that's impressive.

    Bells makes great stouts, both Kalamazoo and Expedition are volume worthy. Dark Truth, Abyss is tough to get in any real volume, Ten Fidy is really good. Kalamazoo IMO wins when you rate taste and the hit to the wallet, love the licorice twist to this one..

    Obviously this one's not out yet, but next month we'll see Sierra Nevada's Narwhal. If it's like their other beers, it will likely be a nice value for the money.

    I just had the 2012 batch on tap at the Dogfish brewpub. It was excellent.
