11 Beers That Are Never Worth the Price If you find yourself in any of these situations, you should expect a very pricey brew.

Whether cracking a few cold ones on your back deck or cozying up with a warming stout at a pub in the fall, you gotta love a good beer. In fact, Americans reportedly drink about 6.3 billion gallons of beer every year.

But, as any consumer of domestic, imported, and/or craft beer knows, not all beers are created equal. And some beers simply aren't worth the price—whether they're overpriced for what they actually are (some bottles cost over $200!) or because of where you're buying them (ballparks and stadiums, we're looking at you).

Read on for our list of the most expensive beers and decide for yourself if such brews as barrel-aged high-ABV beers, ballpark pours, or day drinking at the airport is worth your hard-earned dollars. Plus, don't miss These Are the 25 Worst Beers in the World.

This article hit home with me, especially with regard to NYC airports. I recently flew to San Diego and went to the airport bar at JFK to get my customary pre-flight double-vodka, as I'm a bit of a nervous flyer and that drink really calms me down.

Well I sobered up quickly when I got my bill for $38! Yes, that is how much a double-vodka (Titos) will run you at the JFK airport bar. I try to avoid beer before getting on airplanes because I'd prefer to avoid a trip to the lavatory during the flight. But as expensive as the beer is there, I might need to switch to beer next time.

As for Fenway Park, it was not always expensive to drink beer there. I used to go to games in the mid 1970s where a beer was 75 cents. Not only that but they had vendors going up and down the aisles selling it to you so you didn't even have to leave your seat - except to go to the restroom later.

I love a good frosty beer. There isn’t one that’s worth more than 5 bucks a bottle.

That’s all in the way you pour, according to my husband. Your point still stands, though!

Same as airports and concert venues, captive audiences.

We used to drink Mickey’s while shrimping under the bridges in the Keys. Late at night. 😆
