    It costs too much.

    Who gets tired of that grapefruit zest? Warmer weather is here and Grapefruit Sculpin is perfect with its mouthwatering wanting more flavor. I love both and always wish the price was lower.

    I prefer the grapefruit. Ironically, I can get it cheap at a certain bar ($4) but see it for about $16 per six pack at most bottle shops. So, basically, too expensive in bulk, just right for a single at a bar. Odd, but I'll take it.

    I expected more from the grapefruit and was left disappointed. So I guess I'm old school and will go with the regular Sculpin.

    Just drinking my first Grunion, I might like it more than Sculpin

    I would say that I am too open to suggestion but I was grabbing one of these out of my fridge tonight even without this thread.

    I was very happy with it myself. Glad we have lots of Ballast Point making it's way around here.

    I'd buy grapefruit if it was still around but it's not. If I ever get the itch for Sculpin which I won't , but if I did I'd think I'd run out and buy some Toprpedo instead, they're similar and I'd pocket the cash.

    Regular, I don't like any flavor added to my IPAs.

    Neither is worth the price of $16-17 per sixer and I won't even consider buying their Grunion PA for that price.

    I prefer the regular Sculpin. I have only had them in cans, which have been available nearly everywhere on the east coast recently. I did not hate the grapefruit, but would have to be a hot beach day for my tastes. How much have people been paying for Sculpin? I did not find the boxed 6 packs of cans that pricey, when compared to other canned IPA offerings.
