I love good craft beer, but it does wear a hole in the wallet.
Don't get me wrong, I don't mind paying for quality, but when you are spending $30 for three or four bottles at the supermarket or off-licence every week it can get a bit taxing on the bank account.
In their efforts to cash in on the burgeoning craft beer market some of the country's larger brewers like Founders, Stoke, Mac's and Boundary Road are producing their own range of craft-style beers and, generally, they do a good job.
Smaller, more niche craft beer brewers spend a lot of money on top quality ingredients but don't have the buying power of the bigger brewers so have to recover their costs somehow.
This week's beer, Mac's Three Wolves pale ale, can be picked up for less than $20 a six pack.
