Sierra Nevada Sampler Pack

But it was the Sierra Nevada website showing both, not the store. Does that run off SKUs?

 

I don't have access to their system, so I don't know. Good question for them to answer.

 

Yeah that was a really interesting variety of beers. I really liked that it wasn't loaded full of IPAs, maybe only a couple of them if I remember correctly. I'd buy that pack (or a similar one) again in a heartbeat.

 

I know I'm an anomaly but I've stopped buying Sierra Nevada because of the packs going extinct. They were always great and fresh. I would kill for that southern hemisphere pack again. Would usually pick up a sixer of hazy little thing as well.

 

The beer camp packs were always fun

 

Looks like the sampler was changed again...this time only Pale Ale, Torpedo, 40th, Hop Bullet.

Damn, that's a rough one...

 

An early April Fools' Day joke perhaps?

 

12 BEER 4 DIFFERENT STYLES

Pale Ale, Pale Ale, Pale Ale aaaand... Pale Ale.

 

Perhaps I shouldn't quibble here but except for SNPA those beers are really IPAs.

Did Sierra Nevada steal something from the Stone Brewing playbook? IPAs all the time?

Cheers!

 

Four easily obtainable shelf beers, together at last!

I suppose it serves a purpose somewhere but killing off the seasonal packs and now scaling down to four regular beers vs six with a few unique ones thrown in is an odd move.

 

Because some financial dude at Sierra Nevada is of the opinion that the only type of beers that sell are hoppy beers?

Cheers!

 

If he/she is in finances then it's probably not an opinion when the sales reports come back, is it?

 

Lots of different ways to view/interpret data.

I am reminded of an old saying attributed to Mark Twain (Samuel Clemons):

“There are lies, there are damn lies, and then there are statistics.”

Cheers!

 

I like all of these beers, I just don’t want them all together.

 

The one I saw today at Costco was, Torpedo, Tropical Torpedo, 3 weight, and Hop Bullet. Easy pass for me.

In good SN news I scored 6 packs of their stout and porter, bottled late December, $10 a piece the other day.

 

One word... Glissade

 

I am leaving my shelter in place to find as many old Sampler Packs as I can just for the two Flipside Red IPA in each 12 pack.
