   Dig it!  And what's with the 4-paks that have started appearing on store   
   shelves?   
      
   And in CANS!!!  If I want to drink from a can I'll drink a PBR!!     
   In my neck of the woods, Microbreweries are the only growing industries.  But   
   as you mentioned they want $14.99/$15/99 for a 4 or 6 pak.  Now I know that's   
   what it works out to be on a "per beer" basis if one buys it at a tavern but   
   that is why I rarely    
   go out to drink anymore!  I drink at home & alone!  Don't need no DWI,   
   either!  But it's just too much $$ in my mind for something I know that's just   
   as good for $8.99/6.  I remember when I could buy a 6 pak on sale for .89   
   cents (Old Geezer Talk).  Plus    
   I too blame the Hipster millennials! Look at this overpriced crap I'm drinking   
   'cuz I'm cool!  No wonder they're still living in Mom's basement!   
      
   But IPAs do Rule!!!
