    This has been the main way I buy beer for the last 10 years. Its nice to get a single of something you have never had instead of 6(and then not wanting to drink 5 of them).

    If you had no beer in your fridge (scary thought, I know), and your only option was to go to your local beer store and build a 6 pack of different singles (no duplicates) of YEAR ROUND brewed beers, that are readily available in your neck of the woods, what would your 6 look like?

    Mine:
    Victory Dirtwolf
    Smuttynose Finest Kind
    Great Lakes Edmund Fitzgerald
    Sierra Nevada Stout
    Ithaca Flower Power
    Victory Prima Pils

    I truly envy the fact that you get to put "fresh" in front of sculpin:slight_frown:

    It's not the same beer. When you get it in the first few weeks it is amazing, especially the first pour from a tapped keg. Then a grey period. But once it's 2 months or so old, I will not buy.
