Having that right now. I had a crap ton of change in a jar and i pulled out all the quarters which totaled to $15.50 took it up to the grocery and the beer was $16.27 with tax. So gave them a dollar. The kid wasnt thrilled when i showed him the quarters lol but it was easy to line them up quickly by 4s and count them so no real big deal.

Very tasty beer, smooth with no bitter aftertaste. Ive had the grapefruit before as well as Big eye. But im just never going to be a guy who spends 15+ on the regular when there are so many good 6 packs around the 8-10 range.

They do make a good beer, but not a $15/6 pack good beer.

As for the comments on Sierra Nevada, they're one of the most consistent craft breweries, regardless of how big they are, and they put out a large amount of different beers every year. I thought their Tropical IPA they put out a few months ago was really good. Very similar to Creature Comforts Tropicalia, which is one of the best IPA's I've had in a while. And I could get a 12 pack of the Sierra Nevada for $11.99 at a Kroger near my house. That's a steal compared to other similar options.
