Haul for 12/7/2012


Okay, so here's what I picked up from today's haul.  Ended up going by Bottle Revolution in Raleigh and Total Wine - Cary locations.  Needless to say, I'm not picking anything else up until next year.  I'm spent.


  • Sweetwater Festive Ale - On a Christmas kick, so I've been targeting Christmas and holiday ales.  The bomber was much more expensive by volume than the 12 oz, so the 12 oz it is! Price paid: $1.79
  • Santa's Private Reserve - Price paid: $2.29
  • Woodchuck Barrel-Aged Cider - This is one of those reserve releases that I don't see all the time, so I actually picked up 2! Price paid: $1.99
  • Bison Gingerbread - Another Christmas release, had a good experience with the Organic IPA, so went and picked this one up.  Price paid: $2.19
  • 12 Dogs of Christmas - Add another Christmas release to the list! Price paid: $2.29
  • Harpoon Coffee Porter - I picked up the last 100 barrel series release, so I figured I'd try and get the next one. Price paid: $6.49
  • Widmer Brothers 2011 Brrrbon - I couldn't drop by without getting a high end Christmas type beer, and this is the winner for the year.  Price paid: $12.99
  • Widmer Lemongrass Wheat - The combination was appealing to me, so I had to pick it up.  Price paid: $8.99
  • The Bruery 5 Golden Rings - I was on the fence about picking this one up, but saw that I could age it for some 7 years, and I wanted to start finding some beers that I could collect and pick up from year to year, so this one was the winner.  Too bad I won't find a partridge in a pear tree, two turtle doves, three french hens, four calling birds, etc. Price paid: $10.99
  • Sweetwater Danktoberfest - This one was steeply discounted.  I don't know if the beer is skunky (I'll find out soon), or if they're just trying to move their seasonal stuff out of the way. Price paid: $1.99
  • Fox Barrel English Perry - One variant that I haven't tried before.  Last one there, so I figured I'd snag it. Price paid: $2.49
  • Fox Barrel Combo Pack - Inside are 4 bombers of 3 different varieties, none that I've actually tried yet.  Since I hadn't tried any of them, I picked them up.  There was also a Crispin Combo Pack, but I had 2 out of the 4, I've seen 1 of the remaining 2 available, so I just have to bank on the last one being around sometime in the near future.  Price paid: $21.99
