Do you buy beer by the case?

Only occasionally when I'm supplying Two Hearted to my daughter on the west coast, and once when Short's released their Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster, a double Belgian IPA which is high on my list of favorites but only released seasonally in a small quantity and not every year. So I voted No since it doesn't happen regularly.

 

I bought two 12-packs of Fair State's Crankin' Foamers (AAL) for the Fourth of July weekend.

 

Pennsylvania has really opened up their alcohol laws the past several years. I'm still amazed that I can buy singles. So I've been buying that way for a while now and I have no plans to go back to buying cases.

 

I can't even remember the last time I purchased 24 bottles/cans of a single beer at one time. Many years ago I'd have to guess. Now, a mix of 24 various beers at one time is another matter ...

 

Not really ever by the case these days but 12 packs yes.

 

I really only buy one beer by the case. Heady Topper. That's just because I need to travel to find it. Otherwise I really don't.

 

I voted no. While I regularly buy 24 beers or more at a time, they’re hardly ever all the same brewer/style/etc. Even when I’m just stocking my regulars I’ll do like a 6 of Light Hearted Ale, a 6 of Lager of the Lakes, and a 6 of Solid Gold. I’m a sucker for variety. Cheers.

 

I used buy SNPA by the case when I was younger. I was drinking more and there were many less choices. Now even for picnics or BBQs no cases just a sixtel,

 

Infrequently, yes. Like when making a run to Wisconsin to grab some New Glarus.

The vast majority of the time, no. Packs of 1 - 12 do the trick.

 

Yes, I do.

 

Rarely

 

Not in a long time. I've recently purchased a 12 pack of something recently, but other than that, it's 4 or 6 packs

 

Nope. At least not unless I'm buying something in another state that I can't buy at home. I've bought cases of New Glarus, but that's basically it.
I don't drink enough of any one thing to justify it. I guess Dale's Pale Ale, maybe, but I'd rather buy a fresh 6-pack every week or two instead.

 

12 packs frequently (for the economics of it), cases very rarely, even if I’m buying 4 total cases for a party or something

 

Do I live in Pennsylvania and complain about the price of Sierra Nevada beer?

No, I buy 4 or 6 packs mostly and the occasionally single 16 or 19.2 oz can. I used to buy 12 pack variety packs but now that they are basically a collection of IPAs I pass.

 

I buy cases of Bigfoot and Vitus annually. I occasionally also buy cases of other, reasonably priced big beers that hold up well, barrel aged barleywine from Central Waters for instance.

Not all that long ago, most of my beer was purchased by the case in Pennsylvania.

 

Father of the year!
