    My first was Zombie Dust and a couple weeks later was Hop Slam. And the buying has spun out of control ever since :grinning:

    I'm surprised at how few of us have not purchased a full case. I however purchase cases frequently and my first was Sierra Nevada Bigfoot, I can't wait for this years release!

    It was probably Yuengling Porter in returnable bottles but who can remember 25 years ago!?

    The only beers I ever bought cases of are Yuengling and Blue Moon when I was first getting into craft. By the time I finished them I was much deeper into craft and regretted the purchases. They're not horrible beers, just not something I want a whole case of.
