In the mean time, I'l be writing down Angela quotations from throughout the happenstance.
"I'm going to drink you under the table and kick your boott-cake."
"I thought that I plugged in the the thing but I plugged in the other thing"

Results: We both agreed, Dogfish Head is the winner. Most hop flavor and really well-balanced. HOWEVER, considering that it MAY be above our case price-point, Impaled Ale and Harpoon were tied for the runners up (and both are definitely in the price range). I'm tempted to go local though it may be a few bucks extra. But really, who cares when you're only going to pay about $13 for 24 beers?

Middle Ages! The brewery's brand is fantasy-themed, they're instrumental in creating Braincrushers, and most importantly, they have cats in the tasting room! Harpoon, however, is the runner-up beer of Boston, home of Tommmmmmmmmm Brady. If you buy Harpoon, I will personally open, spit into, and re-seal every bottle.
Where does Green Flash West Coast IPA fit in on the pricing?
It's almost twice as much as a case of Impaled Ale! These days, Green Flash is sold in 4 packs of fancy looking bottles for $11 or $12. That's why I only get it on draft!
That's too bad. I remember it being a lot cheaper than that.
Also, I'm surprised the Torpedo didn't fair better!
Torpedo is my normally my standby! It must be an old six pack or something. Really, I thought it would win.
I was surprised that Torpedo wasn't up there, too! Ben, the Green Flash change happened a few months ago - they claimed that the move from sixers and bombers to four packs wouldn't result in a major price change, but I think the retailers decided otherwise.
