Here\u2019s the context of my question.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve spent a colossal amount of money on beer. I mean, huge amounts of money. I continue to do so. I\u2019ve routinely bought very expensive beer, and had the additional cost of shipping it, traveling to get it, and generally going out of my way to obtain it. All of this costs money \u2013 a lot of money. On the whole, I have found value in most of my purchases. That isn\u2019t to say that <em>all<\/em> of the purchases have represented value for money, they haven\u2019t, but I can still find tremendous value in what many people would categorize as \u2018ridiculously expensive beer\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Value most certainly does not necessarily correlate with cheap either (although it could), rather it means when I part with the cash, no matter how large or small the amount, does what I receive in return meet or exceed the value of said cash? Subjective? Sure, but we all have our own sense of value.<\/p>\n<p>Three reference points here.<\/p>\n<p>(a) I\u2019m very in touch with the pub scene in the UK, and routinely I see posts about \u00a37.50 ($9.75) pints of Peroni, and conversely \u00a31.99 ($2.50) 20 oz pints of Cask Ale in Wetherspoon pubs.<\/p>\n<p>(b) Virtually all of my beer consumption these days is done at home, drinking Belgian beer that I import directly from Belgium. Without doubt there are infinitely cheaper ways to drink beer, but I still find excellent value in my long distance purchases.<\/p>\n<p>(c) On last Friday night I was at a brewpub in Ohio where, after 9 PM, all beers were $2.50 a pint.<\/p>\n<p>Some people HATE Wetherspoon pubs, and as such even great beer at those prices might still may not represent good value for them, and that\u2019s OK! Similarly, some people would be horrified at my Belgian beer tab when shipping is included \u2013 and that\u2019s OK too! Finally, the beer at that brewpub in Ohio may not have been worth $2.50 to you \u2013 again, OK. These things are at the heart of the genesis of my question for this month\u2019s Session; where do <em>you<\/em> find value in beer?<\/p>\n<p>Please post on or before <strong>Friday, April 25th<\/strong>, and flag your contribution in the comments below, or via email to ding @ dingsbeerblog or by tagging me on X (@dingsbeerblog).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the April 2025 edition of The Session (#146), I would love people to tell us where they find the greatest value in beer.
