we have had beer threads on here before, and rather then just bump and old one, i decided to make a new one.

i went to boston 2 weeks ago and we took a tour of the sam adams brewery. so my buddy george told me to pick him up this 3 pack they sell at the gift shop.



has anyone ever had it? they are all delicious. my buddy told me to pick up a few to sell on ebay. i bought 4. one for me, one for him and 2 for ebay. i already sold 1 and made a nice profit. they are only sold at the sam adams brewery in boston. you are only allowed 1 per person due to the fact that people sell them on ebay, so i had to have my other friends that i was with buy 1 each for me.

What type of beers are they? Damn was just in Boston yesterday to pick someone up from the airport. Definitely want to try these!

[iVTECallday]

MMMMMM Beer!

[orangebarius]

American Kriek - black cherry beer. reminds me of cherry wheat but lighter. 7% abv
New World Tripel - belgian ale. like a hefeweizen. my 2nd favorite. 10% abv
Stony Brook Red - like nothing you have every tasted before. it is delicious. my favorite. 9% abv.

ryan, just go to the gift shop and buy one. they're $30. i sold my first one on ebay for $76 + s&h

the only thing I love about Boston is Sam Adam's.

One of my favorite all time beers was their original Oktoberfest. The beer has changed a bit when they relabled it and changed it to Octoberfest.

Any chance you can include a pack with the door cards?

lol this 2nd ebay auction is over tomm morning. 0 bids, but 3 watchers. i have it posted for $60 same as the 1st one i sold last week. i'd let it go for $50 to metro if it doesnt sell on ebay.

the 1st one had 2 bidders, 5 bids and several watchers. it sold for $76. i dont know why this one is moving yet. we'll see what happens tomm morning. i may have to relist it.

[Moddiction]

Damn. Getting thirsty thinking of them lol. Next time I am there I will try to pick up a set of them. Only allowed 1 set per person you said though right? Will suck if I really like one of them and can't have more!

[2ks2knyc]

Oh so tempting!!! If I have any extra cash from my crawl tonight I will take the second if it doesnt sell at auction. I will be a hit a the next 234 bbq with this!

[orangebarius]

well ryan, you may be able to buy 2. i went up there and said can i have 4. the guy looked at me and said what? i said can i have 4 please. he said its only 1 per person. i asked why? he said people sell them on ebay. i said i want to give them to friends as presents. then he said well i need you to at least show me four bodies, so i called over my 3 friends, then i charged them all on my card, so i guess its not a strictly enforced policy.

they also sell the bottles individually for $10 each, so you can just buy 1 flavor. not sure of the limits on those, but im guessing its 1 or 2 as well.


any beer drinker will love these. they are delicious. ill let you know tomm if they sell or not, henry. im guessing they will, but you never know.

[2ks2knyc]

^^ thanks dude.

[orangebarius]

Np man. Hit me up tomm and enjoy your fri night out.

[ThatPreludeGuy]

Nice find Barry, when I did the tour they didnt have any beer to buy, I was looking forward to getting something special too.

[orangebarius]

I had to repost it on ebay.

[orangebarius]

my next mission is sam adams utopias. $150/bottle and released every 2 yrs. 27% alcohol.

you drink it like whiskey and its barreled in old liquor barrels.

With one cube? A splash of soda? Neat? However neat would just be like drinking any beer

I would love to taste a 150 bottle beer.

[orangebarius]

lol it comes with a small glass to drink it out of. you dont drink 12 oz at a time. just a little bit in a glass. my friend bought a bottle 2 yrs ago and said it was good, but not worth $150.

you're supposed to drink it at room tempature too.

[2ks2knyc]

Well in Europe they drink beer room temp. The ice cold beer thing is American if im not mistaken.

Are you just big on Beers or all kinds of booze?


I would kill for this ..

[orangebarius]

yea warm beer is a british thing. i am more of a beer guy then liquor guy.
