I would try any beer, but I wouldnt buy one for $13.99.

hahaha....I used to say that too. Then I started drinking sours. Now I'm so far down that rabbit hole, $13.99 seems reasonable. I bought a bottle of Cantillon Mamouche for $30 a few months ago.

I had to start making my own sours, otherwise I was gonna go broke.
 
Southern Tier Pumking. I actually consider this to be one of my all time favorite beers, for the past three years my wife and I have hunted it down grabbed a few to last through fall. This year I wanted to share my superfund with some friends and family, cracked on open, poured it out and started to server...it was nasty. Too bitter, no good taste to be found, it wasn't the amazing beer I'd been used to. I'm sure I can't blame southern tier, it was probably distributed hot and just not treated well, but what a disappointment.
 
Shiner 102 double wheat. The nose just kept reminding me of a dishwasher that had been opened while still early in the dry cycle.
