    Well, let me tell you my story.

    I have never had BCBS before but a bought a 4-pack at my local Wegmans Supermarket a couple of months ago. I happened to be there for food shopping but I noticed a Wegmans employee walk by with a BCBS 4-pack in hand. I asked a beer guy in the store how much it was and he stated $24.99. I replied: for 4 beers!?!

    As I checked out the checkout person told me: a previous customer bought six 4-packs $149.94 for those who are counting). He asked me: is this beer that good!?!. I replied: I really don’t know but it better be!

    I have only had one bottle of BCBS and it is indeed an excellent beer. I may purchase another 4-pack next year.

    29 bottles (and more?) is a lot of coin!

    Cheers!

    As others have said, drink that Heady ASAP. It's an IPA man, come on.

    go into the cellar and crush a couple HT's then tell us if you think purchasing the case of BCBS is a good idea. Beer makes decisions easier.

    I have seen the light. I'm going to get more BCBS.

    Any beers I have that cannot be aged long term, I will bring up to the fridge and not buy any new ones until their all gone.

    As long as everything I have can be aged for 3-5 years (or more) then it shouldnt be a big deal if I end up with a bunch of bottles.

    Lucky bastid. Color me jealous.

    You definitely dont want to store your beer on its side, so I hope they aren't laying down in those fridges.

    You're worried about hoarding due to 2 cases of beer? Sure it's an expensive beer but you're only talking about a couple cases.

    Ooh! The answer is trade some for something equally worth hoarding. What are you in the market for?

    That's a lot easier to get and cheaper so in my mind I separate the two on this issue.

    I've never seen that at a Wegman's before, awesome for you being in the right place at the right time!
