    Wife supports the habit but doesn't see the check book lol. Actually bought me a fridge for my birthday recently. Shipping was the beautiful part - I just added it to my freight leaving a trade show and shipped it to my office (I'm a event manager).

    My all-time high was just short of $200, lovingly spent at Court Liquors in Long Branch, N.J. a few years back. What a haul that was. :grinning:

    I've actually never bought cases of either. I just grab a couple of 4 packs and drink them fresh. When you're talking sours, Lambics, and wild saison stuff can get really out of hand.

    Yea. They had a limit on 1 4 pack for SOS pp. The Heady is long gone. Between my SO and Dad and a couple of trades all 2 cases were gone in a few weeks.

    Nope, bought 5 and 5. I was near the end of the original line, so it is possible they bumped the allotment by the time I got through

    Maybe 200-250 bucks during a 3-4 brewery run in Maine but I can't remember exactly. I imagine I will easily top that next weekend while in VT for the brewfest :grimacing:

    My most expensive haul was worth just under $600, though it was picking up allocations from The Bruery and had been accumulated over a 5 week period. My biggest single purchase was $247 and I walked away with some pretty awesome stuff.

    I just don't have the room to stock that heavy. The most I've spent is about $100 on a case of Parabola

    Wow, that hurt just reading it. I don't think the 2015 BA Abraxas has been released yet, but I'll get some when it is. I can honestly say I would never pay that much for a beer. Abraxas is good but it's not that good. Consider trading, I think you could get it for about $40-60.
