    After reading the budget thread.... What is the most that you have ever spent on one brewery/bottle shop. I know for me it was a HF a couple of months ago. My GF and I each spent right around $450 so that easily takes the cake for me. What about you guys?

    ~200 - It was pretty recent actually; found a whole case of BCBS in March, so, well that happened. I don't tend to go too nuts all at once, but if you count 'over the course of a big week' when there are a few large releases it probably gets over 150 pretty regularly.

    I spread my love between a few good bottle shops, but if I combined everything from one day...
    Maybe about $250. At least that's what I told the GF...:wink:

    Gratitude Day 2015 - 14 bottles total, $270. That's by far the most, though. Other than that the most I've ever spent at once was maybe $100.

    Wow you guys are high rollers. My most expensive was about $160. A typical trip to my local bottle shop is about $40-50. When I go to the one In St. Louis, which has a much bigger selection I usually spend a little more.

    2.5 cases of Heady at right around $200. Now, if I factor what it cost me to get to Boston then up to Vermont...nah, not gonna do it

    Lost track on my trip to FFF. Shipped home 4 cases of Zombie Dust and 2 of Gumball Head plus 12 - 15 bombers, easily over $450. Shipped them home with freight from a trade show - safely on an air ride moving van. Drank more ZD that summer than one ever should...

    Not me personally, but the largest single transaction I've seen in the 10 years I've been managing the shop was a guy who came in a couple weeks ago. He rolled up in a U-Haul and bought full cases of all 12 Cascade beers we had in stock, 5 cases of de Garde Bu Weisse, 5 cases of dG Petite Desay, and 10 assorted cases of Oregon IPAs and stuff. His grand total was just shy of $5,000.
