Not paying $85 for a 6pak of beer I can make a reasonably close 12gal clone of for less than that.[/quote]
…and that’s another reason why we homebrew.[/quote]

Ahem botha!

I could brew so much beer for $85, not going to happen. I like good beer. I like fancy beer. I like expensive beer. But I’m not at the point in my life where I’m ready to throw away a wad of cash just to try something that is good, fancy and super expensive just because it’s rare. Although that was tested when a friend said he saw a bottle of Sam Adam’s Utopia down the street and started talking about splitting it.

Ahem to this too… with one caveat… Sam Adam’s Utopia is terrible. That’s right, I said it! And I’m not a Sam Adams basher. I feel Sam Adams makes a wide variety of some very good beer. Utopias, is not one of them.

Well, I guess it’s a good thing I resisted the terrible urge and held my ground and didn’t get it then.
