    Picked up a six pack of High Westified today for $11.69. This is a great beer! When you consider their past releases at similar pricing, such as Born Yesterday and Waldo, Lagunitas is about the best bang for the buck out there when you consider price and quality.Keep it up!

    I haven't been able to find any new stock Lagunitas in a long time. I miss them.

    Couldn't agree more, now they just need to make a lot more high Westified.

    Hop Stoopid in sixers? SERIOUSLY?! That's some great fucking news right there. I really miss those Arizona beer prices too...

    Also the fact it's 2017 and some people in this wonderful country can still find High Westified makes me feel a combination of anger and sadness. Angry that all of the sixers somehow disappeared in a matter of hours and sad that I was unable to get my hands on any. Oh well, better luck next year! (I hope)

    The day they can consistently get fresh beer on the shelves is day they officially kick ass. :slight_smile:

    My main complaint is their unreadable Julian Coding on the bottle necks. You dont know how many stares I get holding bottles up to the ceiling lights in stores trying to read the tiny print. And my eyes aren't young!!

    I don't ever buy their stuff, but if they put out more beers on the level of BY and HW, they can take my money.

    I always find it fresh in PA. Just got a 6er of Maximus this past Saturday that was 2 weeks old.

    High Westified is still available here in AZ. Whole Foods in Chandler had 6 packs for 8.99 last week.

    Honestly, phenomenal. Between that Maximus, Sucks, Hop Stoopid, 12th of Never, CitruSinensis, Sucks, Brown Shugga, A Little Sumpin' Sumpin', and more, you really can't go wrong.

    You should get them and save them for that price, damn. People are willing to do some crazy trades on here for it.

    They lost my business when they became litigious towards other craft breweries, selling a 50% distribution stake to Heineken was just the nail in that coffin

    Plenty of other fish in the sea with better IPAs

    I agree for sure, Lagunitas has always had great beer out for cheap. Getting Westified, Born Yesterday and Waldo for 12 bucks is crazy and from time to time I find Hop-stooped for like 3.99 a bomber. Cheers.

    Honestly I could care less who is part owner. Yeah it's kind of sucks but it's the way of the beer world. As long as quality doesn't suffer I'm OK. The plus side is distro of fresh beer occurs more often. I don't see many backing off Goose Island BCBS due to this. Anyhow I like Lagunitas. Freshness is sometimes an issue no doubt. But for me more often than not it's fairly fresh.
