  Damn, yeah......good on you for not buying that shit.

  I wasn't a huge fan of the IPA. I mean it was decent, nothing great IMO. Their A Little Sumpin' Extra! Ale (Imperial IPA) on the other hand I found delicious.

  Good move Killer. The Wife payed $13.99 for a 4 pack at an AmeriStop. Having a Two Hearted before breaking into The Wrecker.
  
  Side note. The Wife did some rearranging an found another Stash I'd forgotten about. I will have to sort this stuff out over the next few weeks and I'll post my Stash inventory here. I might have some duplicates that I'd might be willing to share with some of the local snobs...noticed I said MIGHT twice in that sentence. Lol.

  Okay I'm doing the Palate Wrecker. Thank goodness I'm on vacation today/tomorrow.

  Which is exactly what I thought when the girl there told me how much that bottle of Palate Wrecker cost. I'll try it at some point because some on here speak so highly of it, but it will be at a legit price.

  Also, good to see that I was right in thinking I was about to be ripped off. Thanks for the feedback, fellas. I knew you guys would know what FMV was for a particular beer.

  Made it to Colorado. No luck in the Laguintas yet. Drinking some New Belgian Abbey Ale for now. Will pick up the search again tomorrow.

  Oh and for Otrap, I'm having a Don Tomas Classico. I brought along quite a few sticks to have in the awesome evenings out here.

  Has anyone ever looked up beers on ebay? Some of the stuff on there is going crazy high. Stuff from Founders,Rogue, DFH. My lord.

  Founders KBS was going for $100 for a 4 pack.

  $25.00 a bottle. DAMN!!! That means I gave away $50.00 worth of it on Saturday...I must be a Drunkard. Maybe Durkie's bottle might be up for sale now. Any bidders? (Just kidding Dey. I would never do that)

  Same, I shared my 4 pack with a couple of people as well. Throwing money away like a boss

  I got mine for just over $5.00 a bottle. That's a mark up of well a...I'm bad at percentages. I'll have to let footwedge figure that out.
• Raw Dawgin' it

  

  I read an article they're going to brew more for 2013 because of the huge demand. I'd buy a 4 pack just to have for special occasions, but there are beers I like a lot more for the money.
• killer_ewok

  

  I still have my 4-pack of it. Maybe I should sell it for $80 profit.
  
  Nah, fuck it. I'd rather drink it at some point.

  Man, I have got to try this KBS now ...

  It's really strong and tastes like beer mixed with bourbon. Not something i'd drink in the sun on a summer day ha

  Most places are sold out of it now, and I legit have been looking for it the past 2 yrs only to find my 4 pack last week. Good luck hunting, part of the fun for me at least.
