    It looks like a cheap-ass energy drink...

    For higher abv beers, I really like the 500ml size, but only a handful of brewers use it.

    I have to say that the Six Point can is the most perfect container that I've seen in the beer world. I'd be tempted to buy them empty. The contents are freaking awesome as well. Of course it would be great if they distributed to NC. 16 oz would be good as well. I'm just saying.

    SYNEK is a beer in a box that comes with its own fridge that sits on the counter. I believe it can be filled like a growler, too. Its been a while since I read up on it.

    I think 16 oz. is the perfect sized can or pour.

    Im not a huge fan of bomber prices --but this VT made Simon Pearce 22oz tulip solves the problem of matching bottle to vessel. Isn't she gorgeous?? Built to last the armegeddon.

    Why are people saying more packaging means more money per ounce? Isn't one of the biggest complaints about bombers is they are 22oz and way overpriced for most beers? Let's be honest. Most stores try to **** you on bombers, unless you're in a competitive market. I hate bombers for everyday beer. Yay! Let's spend $8.99-$14.99 for regular, non-limited release beers. That is for two, 11oz beers. That's higher than bar prices.

    Yes there is exceptions. One I already mentioned. If you're in an area in a competitive market and they don't try to stick it up in you and break it off with bomber prices. The other exception is maybe local breweries 99% of us won't see or everyone's favorite low priced bomber brewery, Lagunitas.

    IMO growlers should be less popular. the beer goes flat before I even get home. what's the point?
    for me a 12 oz bottle is ideal.

    It's not MaB, it's Maß, (or Mass) which is a Bavarian 1 liter mug.

    If it's going flat that quickly, your growler fill place is terrible. A good growler fill can last a month+ unopened, an average one should be good for a week-ish unopened. Once they're opened yes they do have to be drank quickly.
