Good. Can`t afford a six pack? No buy.
And what's the problem with single bottle sales?

I went to TO last Thursday for a concert. After fighting downtown traffic and construction, unable to find one store, and unable to park at 2 others, ultimately making us late for the opening band, I finally got some Boneshaker. The next morning I got an email from Drinkvine saying 6 packs came into London. FML.

Glad it lived up to the hype.

Things are changing when going to college. My son is now in school and got into a chugging event in his dorm. They drew beers from a bin. One kid pulls a Busch Lite. My son pulls a Boneshaker. He claims it does not chug well. :o

You should send him Mill Race for that! Imagine a chugging competition with your Dad's beer. :P

This is delicious. This will probably replace the Tree, which replaced the Flying Monkeys, which replaced the Mad Tom as my fridge-beer.

I agree.. this is an excellent beer. It holds up pretty well too. I had a +6 month old bottle the other day and it was still vibrant/hoppy
