Sure did, and glad I did. Beers were excellent. Standouts were a stout and Barleywine aged in pappy barrels, and an imperial chocolate malted Porter aged in bourbon barrels.

What's the best bang for your buck as far as ABV for the price?

Just off the top of my head, I know I've gotten a 4-pack of Sam Adams Imperial Series white ale (can't think of the actual name, but it's the white ale) that's around the usual $10-11 4-pack price and is 10.5 or so ABV.

Best I've ever seen was in Vegas. Avery's Beast Grand Cru runs around 16%. Buddy said he got a bomber of it for about $10 when I had it.

I'm just loving drinking about 3 great beers and being ready for bed. Beats 12 Keystones every time!

Right now my go-to (for the price) is Fireside Chat. Great warming christmas style ale @ $8.99/6 pack, ~7.7 abv, I think. I'm looking for higher ABV but nothing like $20 for a six pack.

I just got to Anaheim for a week. The uncle-in-law works for Stone and gets 50% off. This fridge is a craft beer heaven. Starting off with a Best By 12/5.
