    If I were in Waterbury, Vermont, the choice would clearly be Heady Topper for Imperial IPA

    However, I'm in PA and the best local option is Victory Hop Wallop - case for about 45

    Imperial Stout would also have to go to Victory with Storm King Stout - case for about 50

    Holy shhhhhhhhhite!!!!! You're right. At that price it comes out to around $.23 per oz. Bombers look like a good deal but packs are always the way to go.

    Zombie Dust $8.75 per 6 pack. Is it an imperial? No. Is it better than most? Yes.

    66 ounces for $12 is the same cost per ounce as 72 ounces for $13.09. I hope you don't think a 22 ounce bottle holds as much beer as 2 12 ounce bottles.

    I guess that depends upon what the local bath house rates support...:grimacing:

    You've gotta go Sucks at ~$10 per sixer. Dare I say I prefer it to Hop Slam? For half the price?

    25 to 30 dollars is a total ripoff anywhere. I kind of thought 19.99 was a little too steep. Hopslam is good, but your 30 dollars are better spent elsewhere. Thats almost a case of Sucks...

    as tempting as that is, I refuse to shop there.
    I'll gladly pay a $1.12 premium to not go to wal mart
