New to Ohio (2015)

Is it though? Don't remember what the bomber prices were. If its the same, oz wise, your get 48oz for the same price. Also, I don't think I could get through a whole bomber in one sitting.

 

Eh, I see what you are saying, but Pumking is typically a one time purchase for me. Half a bomber is enough for me for the season, and I generally split every bomber I buy. I typically don't buy 22 oz or 750 mL bottles without planning on sharing with friends.

 

Now you can go pick up a single 12oz and don't have to share

 

HA! That's no fun though! And where I am, singles always cost more per oz, so we're looking at more expensive (per oz) than a bomber.

 

Clown Shoes Ohio Unidragon 2015 dropping in Cincinnati now.

 

I get my fill of Pumking in September when Giant Eagle makes it their growler of the month for $12.

At first check, I thought that it said $10.99, but nope, $18.99.

Bombers are $8.99.

So 4 pack = 48 oz = 39.5 cents per ounce
Bomber = 22 oz = 40.8 cents per ounce.

So I guess you're saving a couple cents? I don't know, that seems dumb. A bomber of Dragon's Milk is $8.99, but a 4 pack is $15.99. I understand the "maybe you only want a single", but really, with tons of other pumpkin beers that I can find in 4 packs for much cheaper, I'll just buy those instead.

 

It would be nice if all formats were close to the same price per oz. People might get shocked to see a $16.99 six pack of enjoy by but the price per oz is still way better than a bomber.

$0.2359 per oz enjoy by 6 pack @ $16.99
$0.406 per oz enjoy by 22 oz @ $8.99

 

Funny you guys bring up pumking I almost picked up a 4 pack since we don't get them in my area but saw the price and put it back.pumking is slowly becoming a draft or growler fill only beer for me

 

I was just reading a thread about Lagunitas Born Yesterday. Apparently they releasing it again. According to one post, we may get some this time.

"I am almost certain this beer will be hitting all states they have distro in. This was a larger batch produced, this time around."

 

It got OH label approval a few months ago, so there's that too!

 

Neapolitan Milk Stout Saugatuck Brewing Company hit the Springfield Dayton area first time seeing this in Ohio a very well done beer flavors are solid not nyfr sweet either it's just right worth trying a single if you find it

 

I met him at a previous founders tap take over at mikes. Thinking of getting up there around 730. Hope to see you guys and have some laughs...and beers.

 

Justin Blabaer and Fierce Yuzu hit Ohio today for the Sour fans!

 

Vietnamese speedway kegs in Ohio Cappys in loveland tapped one tonight... Alpine Nelson duet and hoppy birthday bottles available there as well

 

Yuzu fierce is legit. Tried it at GABF. Good stuff.

 

Totally agree! Drinking one now. Thought Fierce was a really good beer, but this lemon/lime/tangerine thing going on in this beer is crazy! Seems the fruit balanced out the sourness too. Great beer!

 

Rozi's in Ctown posted a pic of a keg too. Said samples only, not sure entirely what that entails.

For those attending the CBS even tomorrow, thoughts on if 7pm is early enough? Hope to introduce myself to you fine BAs.

 

If you mean the one at Mike's I'd say you're fine. Went the last 3 years in a row and got there a bit earlier (maybe 6?), but they weren't doing tickets either. Since it's a ticketed event this time you should be fine man! Wish I could make it, but have fun!

 

I was gonna get there at 7 as well. I do not think they're tapping CBS til 8, but I could be wrong?
