    I've never bought a 4/6 pack of Bigfoot, but now I remember seeing the announcement last summer about them downsizing Bigfoot and releasing Narwhal. If Bigfoot was still available in 6 pack form, I'd imagine that that would be near the top of everyone's list.

    Combo of biggest & best I've seen around here is Founders Dirty Bastard. 8.5%, 6 pack, 9 bucks.

    Yeah but it used to be $10.99 for a sixer about two years ago, at least in Cali

    I would have to go with Brown Shugga. It's super delicious, clocks in at around 10%, and only runs about $9.99 for a sixer

    Southern tier 2X ipa clocks in at 8.2% and is about $10 around here, lagunitas undercover investigation shutdown @ 9.7% and brown shugga @ 9.99% both $9-11. Raging bitch @ 8.3% for $11 too, although admittedly I haven't had a raging bitch in a while because I'm constantly looking past it for some reason...

    I second the motion for Lagunitas Undercover Investigation Shutdown Ale, 9.7% for $9.99 a sixer, and on sale for $8.99. A truly awesome brew.

    Bell's Expedition Stout. Great imperial stout with a half % higher ABV than Hopslam. I'll gladly pay the $18 price tag for either. Much higher in price than other beers mentioned, but put it into perspective and it's a great value for the quality product you are getting.

    I hate it too, but that is clearly the winner.

    Totally agree, it's just a hot alcohol mess.

    I've had mixed experiences. I've had it on tap quite a few times and it's great -- chewy, balanced and delicious. From the bottle, yes, it can be a little hot and underwhelming.

    This is the beer that convinced me this company must have some serious brewhouse problems. Alternately thick and dry and bitter and sweet and smooth and hot. No pattern. At least Raging Bitch is consistently awful.

    In addition to these their seasonal Undercover Investigation Shutdown Ale clocks in at exactly 10% if I remember correctly. It's an alright imperial copper ale of sorts but it's also only ten bucks.

    Victory Golden Monkey 9.5% at $9.99 per six-pack and 83 on BA.
    It's what I recommend to lots of the college students here in Tallahassee who want a good beer, that's cheap and will get them a good buzz.
