Are Rare Beers Worth the Hassle? [Poll]

Author // Devon

As craft beer has become more popular rare beers have surged in popularity with a cloud of hype around each new release. Beers like Founders Kentucky Breakfast Stout rarely even hit the shelves, anymore. Most of this beer is spoken for by loyal customers of various stores and the dedicated few who call around before it even arrives. Other beers, like Three Floyds Dark Lord or Portsmouth Brewery Kate the Great, have a cult following with drinkers making the pilgrimage to the brewery each year wait in line for hours to get a couple bottles.

Recently, while picking up some beer at my local store, I saw seven guys standing in line. Turns out they'd been there for an hour and were waiting 3 more to get a chance to pick up Founders Canadian Breakfast Stout.

Our question today is are these rare beers worth the wait/effort to get them? Vote below then tell us how you voted and why on Twitter, on Facebook or in the comments below the poll. Cheers!
