    I have actually spent money on BL Chelada, multiple times too.

    I've never regretted a beer purchase. Sure, there's been a number of beers I've bought that I haven't liked, but there's also been a lot I've taken a chance on and really enjoyed.

    I do really enjoy the liquor stores that allow you to make your own 4/6 pack because then I feel less guilty about not enjoying a beer since there's only that bottle to finish.

    Tart of Darkness - a sour stout? I don't drink sours, but I love stouts. Thought I'd give this one a whirl to see if I could get into sours - FAILED!

    Ya I have to call shenanagins on CW Barleywine... That is a top notch example of the style..... Am I a Wisconsin beer fan boy, for sure! But that aside it is a very solid example of the style, better then most, especially for the price!

    If nothing else it put some [more] hair on my chest. A case, in retrospect, was not my best idea.

    There are beers that I bought that I didn't like, but I don't regret buying them. That's part of the adventure!

    Most things from Mikkeller have disappointed me. At least they're moderately priced.....:slight_frown:

    Craft beer for me is all about experiences, so like others said, no regrets. I don't regret that bottle of Voodoo Doughut - proud to say I tasted and survived it, and I have a funny story/experience from it.

    I don't regret buying any single bottle to at least try a beer. My only regret is when I bought a 6 pack, didn't like the beer, and wished I would have bought a single bottle instead.

    Just my 2 cents worth....... Cucumber Saison was being talked about earlier. I LOVED that beer! very unique and different.

    Regrets....
    +1 for the Boatswain DIPA that was said earlier.
    +1 for the Voodoo Doughnut also.

    Newcastle Winter IPA.....the worst English IPA I ever had, like water. Hell, Bud Light has more flavor than this crap. Grrrrrr!!!! At least it's not expensive.

    I knew I was going to hate Voodoo Donut so I bought one and brought it to a beer bar and had the bartender pour out like 10 pours for whoever wanted one. 2 people actually liked it, I had a good laugh about it which was the idea.

    No regrets. I like to try anything I can get my hands on. But for the price I payed and how much I didn't enjoy it, I was pretty damn close to regretting Infinium.
