Oops, I was focused on growlers. My bad. Whole Foods had 32 oz of Regular BCBS for $14, which was a pretty good deal too.

The 12 oz bottles of 2013 were around $6, so is $14 for a bomber really that good? But yes, that's  indeed a discount on what most places charged for a 2012 bottle.

And I think you're missing a "B" somewhere. Wouldn't it be BCBCS?  ;)

Is that a different beer than BCBS? 64 oz growler?

Deal of the weekend.

$14 bombers of 2012 BCCS at Smith Commons because they thought it was old.

Score one for Yada

I don't think I understand your question?

Bomber = large bottle
BCCS = coffee

I suppose I'm missing a B... however, I've never seen a 12oz bottle of coffee, only bombers which last year were around $22, at least where I purchased them and around $28 to $30 in restaurants/bars.

So to have it for $14, I consider it a good deal.

dont let james ford kill your buzz man....it is a good deal!

And to get even more James Fordish, my buddy and I split it, so I actually had about 11ozs for $7... not too shabby!

James Fordish would add the tax in there I think.... ;D

They had at least two when we were there as he went upstairs because he thought we both wanted a bottle. If we didn't have somewhere to be, we would've drank both... but as of Saturday at 10pm, they had at least a bottle left.

Why do you purchase beer when you're not drinking?

i havent purchased beer in those three months, either.  why would i do that?  i drink water now as my only liquid intake.  makes a world of a difference, in reality.

$10.99/six pack at Total Wine, probably $11.99 at Whole Foods. First round probably sold out at some places.

I typically drink six ounces of beer a day. Maybe 12 ounces on a weekend day. And much, much more one day every couple of months when there is a 9:30 forum bottle share.

How do you drink 6 ounces of beer.  What do you do throw half your beer away?   You sure talk a lot about beer for someone who doesn't drink it.
