Best Production Beer for 22 oz bottles
|
|
What is the cheapest best beer you found in a 22 oz bottle. I just had a Berkshire Hefe that was 3.99, label peeled right off and the beer was fantastic. I would get more, but TSA might give me funny look at the airport tomorrow.
Think the cheapest I found was 1.59 at a Korean grocery store in San Jose. Beer was not good. Wish I remembered the name, but I went to the Meadery that night and had a few flights

Actually had a Laguntias Hop Stoopid tonight too. Not a hop head, but thought the beer was good.

I found a 12 pack of 22 oz Red Rocket Ale at my beer distributor for 28 bucks. Great deal, the beer was about a year old but still tasted good. The only problem is that the labels have been hard to remove with oxyclean. The ink wipes right away but the label stays stuck.

around here you can get really cheap blue moon 22 ounce bottles - I haven't had one in a long time but its drinkable.

I made my first attempt at a Red Rocket clone yesterday. (Completely overshot my estimated OG level by 18 points, added 1/2 gallon previously sterilized water at the beginning of fermentation but beersmith still tells me my estimated ABV will be 7.3% so it will truly be ROCKET fuel.) Anyway, I'm curious what distributor had the Red Rocket. While I don't live in the "burgh", I visit family there quite often and would like to pick some up to get the 22 oz bottles on my next visit.
Go pens! (Watching the first preseason game while typing this.) |

If you live near a Trader Joe's their "house" brand, actually called Mission, is $1.99 for a 22. Last time I was there they had a brown ale and a hefe. Not the best ever but drinkable. Contract brewed by someone in Paso Robles.
