I'll happily pay the taxes and duty if it means not having a 2 year old in my car.

It contains 2 each of 6 different IPAs:
5 Single-hop: Hallertau, East Kent Goldings, Simcoe, Ahtanum, & Zeus
1 5-hop with all of the above.
Should be good.
The Sam Adams Variety 12-pack was a closed case containing 2 of each type of IPA. I got it at Consumers on Transit Rd.

Yes talk about an economic fallacy. My sister's kid does barely enough work to cover the cost of the feed.

I figure not having 2.3 of them (or whatever the average is) has saved me $X00,000 which buys a $%# load of beer...AND they are not around to drink it!!!

I hear ya Terry.
What's worse is that some dudes bring their kids to the beer events and I gotta listen to the crying. Faaaaack! Beer and kids don't mix.

Cuz that's what it's all about right? Savin' cash, drinkin' beer and no dead weight around. Good on you fella!

Where are you guys picking up mixed packs? I often go to Niagara Falls NY for beer runs, but Consumers only has bombers and 6 packs. sometimes i go to Wegmans for the 'build your own 6 pack' but you really have to be careful as most of their stock has been on the shelves for months. I have a 'No IPA' rule when shopping at Wegmans.
ya i got mine at wegmans too, not the greatest beers in the mix pack section though, they where stocking the shelf when i was there.
i dont think iol be bringing my 17 month od daughter next time, she was too crazy in the grocery store and in consumers she was all excited yelling BEEEEER! BEEEEEER! She only says 4 words, dad, dog, beer and cheese, lol not even mom or mommy yet

Shame your parents didn't have the same realization.

Kids aren't for everyone. I'm sitting here as a 29 year-old myself and think I'm pretty selfish because I have no desire to spawn any kin. I'm quite content spending my evenings with my wife, hiking, or brewing beer.

Its a lifestyle choice, but it definitely frees one up for minor road trips to check out breweries and such.

Having kids is selfish too.

If having kids is selfish and NOT having them is selfish...I guess your summary is we're all selfish?
