    It's very possible that I'll buy a case of Founders Imperial, regular Pt5th (and BBPt5th if I go to 4 Elf), or Bell's Expedition at some point this winter.

    I dont believe I have ever purchased a case(unless its a case of mixed singles or 750s). Closest I get is with the variety 12 packs. I have 5 cases of homebrew right now, so I make my own cases of whatever style I feel like having that month.

    I think we have the same cellar :slight_smile: I'll see you in line on the 10th at HotD.

    I'd add in HotD Michael, Conflux No. 1, and SN Bigfoot.

    When I was younger and waaaay before I got into craft beer I used to buy cases quite often (and living in the part of PA I did at the time, it was typically easier just to buy a case). As I got more into craft beer, though, I would purchase cases but usually only mixed cases (Sam Adams, Long Trail, Yards, etc.) because my ex and I liked splitting them and trying the different styles. Now I only occasionally buy a case and more cases have been purchased for me as gifts and what not over the years.

    I have definitely developed beer ADD over the years to a point where it is now even borderline disgusting (lol) and I can't stick with any brand/style for too long without getting bored and craving something completely different. Also, 12 packs are now easier to get near me so that is a good option as well.

    I bought about 70 cases of beer today, but then again I own a c-store.

    Thank you, come again.

    I buy cases of Miller Lite. For the majority of my beer it's 6 packs.

    I've bought cases of Brooklyn Black Chocolate and Peche Mortel before to have some available for drinking and a lot of bottles stashed away to age. Other than that, the most of one beer I usually buy will be a 4 or 6 pack.

    I buy my beer predominantly by the case. Cheaper and eliminates skunking.

    Snow day is probably my favorite NB beer. So I try to indulge when I find it.

    Honestly, the cases I buy tend to be the occasional BMC product, while the good stuff is usually in smaller quantities. I like to have some backup, "filler" beer in the house for the situations where it makes sense - for friends who like that stuff, when I'm trying to strech out the relatively expensive stuff, or when I just want a cheap friggen beer that I don't have to appreciate and not be embarrassed about it.

    So what you're saying is, if you were in Portland and had the chance to buy a case of Cherry Adam FTW or Adam FTW you wouldn't :grimacing:

    Almost nothing. I'm too promiscuous when it comes to beer.
