    I spotted a Wachusett 96-pack today. Anyone else seeing these monster packs? That’s gotta be heavy.

    Dayummm. I guess they must haul it out on a dolly and two people lift into a truck bed.

    No matter how good a beer that it may be, I would never buy a pack as big as that. Too much commitment for me to deal with.

    I wonder how many people want to buy a 96 pack of IPAs in Christmas gift packaging in February for $150.

    96'er of Wachusett? That's enough for a dozen people ...or more.
    Or enough for a month for 1 person.

    Meh, depends on how much you like said brews and how fast you are willing to kill them. I'm one to talk though. I'll buy 8 or 9 individual 6 packs a week and they are gone before Friday.

    I've never, EVER seen anything like that!
    Buy one, have a party!
    Or, should I say, have a IPArty!

    Funny thing is the Wachusett 12-packs were on sale for $13.99/each so it would be far cheaper to get (8) 12 packs for $112 vs the $149.

    It's only 4 cases. A case of cans is about 20 pounds, so that's only about 80 pounds for that package.

    Well, kind of old, but a good price per oz.

    Plus I saw they’re charging a deposit fee too.

    The no deposit no return doesn’t fly I guess.

    Isn't that like $35 a case? I just picked up 4 cases of mixed Firestone IPA for $27 a piece. I've never had anything from Wachusett, but this is sounding suspiciously like a rip off.
