    With the range being from 15.99 (GDDC) to 15.99 (Moonset), BHA will likely fall smack dab in the middle at 15.99. :wink:

    I assume you're right. I don't want to start a long thing about it pricing but just would say $16 for a citra IPA 4 pack (non NE style) would be pretty aggressive.

    This is probably the worst thing HA could do to me a month before my wedding. I'll be lucky if I can fit in my suit...:grinning:

    Well, considering bombers were 8.99 on its last release, this pricing is actually ~61% less aggressive. :wink:

    It's best in class and once a year. $15-16 seems the going rate these days. If it comes out at $20 I'll stick to CBP and FB purchases for a while and avoid HA, but they won't do that to us...

    Surely you realize you can't give your heart away when it is already owned by beer?

    Part of the marriage contract is a lifetime of no-questions-asked muling, so don't worry, I've got the beer side worked out.

    So a pinch of flour and a few extra words on the can make it worth more?

    Part of the reason I chose her is that while she's interested in beer, when it gets to the house, she usually doesn't want to drink it.

    On the other hand...it also means I will have the occasional weekday hangover when she refuses to help me finish a growler in one sitting.

    Hey all, I will be in Chicago on the 2nd and 3rd. I would love to stop by the taproom and pick up some BHA. My question is, is there adequate parking at the taproom? I have always used public transport when in Chicago, but I will have a car with me and am staying about 5 miles directly south of the taproom. Just trying to minimize the amount of distance I have to carry a couple cases of beer.

    If you are just stopping in to pick up beer you can easily park in the Jewel parking lot across the street. I do this every time.

    i will probably grab a beer on tap while I am there, but mostly just grab and go

    You can usually park right in front or around the block. If you are only picking up beer quickly just throw your flashers on in one of the many no parking zones right infront. As someone else said you can park at the jewel but a gamble I am never personally comfortable with.
