All I can say, I hate some of those beers that comes in the sampler. Cranberry, yuck. I can't even buy six packs here. Yes, I drink Milwaukee's Best, and Genny, and Genny Cream Ale. I'm cheap. 30 pack for $13. greg |

The price of any beer depends on a lot of factors specific to your locale, e.g., state and local taxes, distributor markup, retailer markup, etc. The only way to know what any particular Samuel Adams branded beer costs (there are a bunch of different ones) is to look at your local retailers. Or ask your brother. -- Joel Plutchak "They're not people, they're HIPPIES!" $LASTNAME at VERYWARMmail.com - Eric Cartman |

Three cans and you are lookin' for some hood rats. |

On 11/14/2007 6:31 AM Dwayne Austin ignored two million years of human
evolution to write: I have to buy some for a party and I have no clue how much it costs. So go to a store and look at a price tag, atom brain. (I'm normally more of a miluakee's best type of guy myself.) Sucks to be you. |

No, while some flavored 'shit' is imported, most of the unflavored 'shit' comes from Milwaukee, St. Louis, and Denver. Save yourself some money and buy a half or quarter keg. You're buying enough beer. To save you the time of figuring it out 10 six packs is 5.625 gallons and a quarter keg (which costs less) is 7.875 gallons. For a real party, you need a half keg or 15.75 gallons. Do not worry about buying too much beer. Invite your friends from alt.beer - we know beer! Dick |

I'm pretty sure he means 1/4 barrel and 1/2 barrel. A barrel refers to not only a vessel but a volume of 31 gallons (36 gallons in England). Whereas a keg only refers to a vessel. Cheers, Ralph |

I think in most regions of the US, it's sorta *understood* that the term "1/4 barrel" is a shorthand expression, meaning "a 1/4 [barrel sized] keg". Whereas a keg only refers to a vessel. Not true, originally at least. The term "keg" (at least in 1946's edition of the Master Brewers Assoc. of America's "The Practical Brewer") was defined as: 1/4 barrel = 7 3/4 gallons - "keg" or "quarter". The other sizes (31, 15.5, 3 7/8) were called "Full" "Half" and "Pony" (both the former and latter all but obsolete). Note, too, that "pony" now means "1/4 barrel" in many areas, except Cincinnati, and I still can't figure THAT one out. |
