    Beer Shopping Ethics - How Many Do You Buy?

    Posted: November 15th, 2011, 12:49am CET by Alan McLeod

    Finally! An ethical question that is not about the ethics of beer writing. I ask because, as I mentioned, Fuller's XX Strong Ale came to town on Saturday. Bought three, had two, gave away one. Then I noticed I was out. So I went back today. I had noticed 17 bottles were listed on the LCBO web site as still being on the one shelf at the one store in the region likely to get them. There were 12 when I got to the store. Might never see this one single run beer with limited supplies making it to North America. I took six.

    Was this piggish of me? I have no intention of sharing or even having them soon. Pure rat packery. Mine. Mine. Mine. Christmas is coming and if Santa disappoints I really might have to step in on my own behalf. I am happy. But was I wrong?
