Because money’s gettin tighter these days I’ve been buying more and more in bulk to maximize cost effectiveness. But I tend to get bored of a beer if I have too many of them so I always go get a variety to keep things interesting.

For my go-to’s it’s the Long Trail Survival Pack for local craft breweries and the Guinness Pub Pack for the macro’s. The Survival Pack is changed seasonally between summer, fall and winter with the line up changing. So the current one in stores is the winter one which nets you standard Long Trail, VT IPA, Limbo IPA and Hibernator Scottish Ale. 12 beers for the standard cost of about 16 bucks (prices vary a lot depending on where you get it) is pretty alright as far as craft brews go. The Guinness Pub Pack is sold at a discount beer store currently for about 16 bucks, gets you 15 cans split between normal Guinness, Harp Lager and Smithwick Red. There’s better dry stouts, pale lagers and red ales but imo none are as affordable or as available as Guinness so it’s a good buy for me.
