    I was looking at my top ten and I realized that some of them only come in bomber format or are more expensive. I started wondering how many I could get (in season) for under $3 a can/bottle. For me it is 50%. I am interested to see the price point for people's top 10 list.

    (Note I couldn't make 11 choices so "10% or less" is what you get)

    Pliny the Elder at happy hour is $3.50 and Ayinger Celebrator can be had for $3.79. After those, everything in my top ten is $10+.

    Pseudosue, enjoy by, fresh squeezed, zombie dust, dark truth stout. A few of these used to be more, but have gone from bombers only to offering other formats so it used to be only 3 not that long ago.

    10% or less, I'm guessing.

    I believe you can get Bell's Expedition Stout and Third Coast Old Ale for around $3 a bottle so I'm at 20%. Everything else on my top ten are bombers and 750s.

    I am at 20%. To me though, my top 10 rated are not necessarily my 10 favorite (aka go to) beers. Kind of like the Top 250 vs the Beers of Fame list. So I wasn't surprised. If I were to pick a top 10 I would guess it was over 50%.

    I guesstimate my top ten to be close to 60%. What can I say, I like what I like.

    Sorry - the title is a quote from Robocop. It doesn't align exactly with the $3 question but I liked the quote so I went with it.

    I for real thought this was going to be a thread about a Robocop Drinking Game. Every time you hear that Slogan, you chug a Brew...I was way off!
