    I just picked up the following at lunch:

    Brown Shugga
    SN Celebration
    Schlafly TIPA
    FBS

    For $20, I could pick 2 of the above. I choose Brown Shugga and TIPA.

    Since you are only giving me $20 to work with here, I would go to where I work(off duty of course) and make an afternoon or evening out of it with 5 pints of beers from our 48 taps since I get half off for pints plus $1 tip per pint. That's what you call effective use of little money!

    Brew York City Growler Bar (Duane Reade on 72nd and Broadway) always fills 64 oz. growlers for $9.95. I filled a Flower Power last time I was there. Also have Sculpin.

    Meanwhile, yesterday at Whole Foods Bowery, I filled a 32 oz. growler of BCBS for $17 ($18.50 including tax).

    $20 is the perfect mix six amount! You might even be able to swing 8-9 singles. It gives you a limit and thus will make you choose more carefully. Good luck!

    a six pack of sierra nevada torpedo extra ipa and a mix six of 4 point beyond the pale ipa's and 2 new belgium accumulation white ipa's, as i just did this weekend. the accumulation's i haven't had before. i went in to get a six pack of beyond the pale, but they only had 4 singles left, so i asked the store manager if i could take a couple accumulation's from a six pack to make my pick six. he said i could split any six packs $8.99 or under to make my pick six, which is $8.99.

    Would probably go the sixer of something I like to drink everyday and a nice bomber or 4-pack of something. The suggestion above is very much to my liking.
