Your Own Personal White Whale

Not that good from what I remember (don't recall which batch) 1983 90% 2005 10% apparently as per untapped #humblebrag

 

In Order:
Prairie Apple Brandy Noir
Mother's MILF
Lone Pint Yellow Rose
Live Oak Hefe
Abraxas (& Variants)
Jester King Atrial Rubicite (actually anything Jester King)
Anything Russian River

 

I don't have the time, access, or funds to get a lot of beer I'd like to try, lots of things come before it in life

True whales (things I'll never get)
- Kbbs
- vanilla rye

Whales that seem to be out there, but I know it ain't going to happen:
- Huna
- dark lord
- Mexican cake
-CBS, I missed out on it multiple times, it just isn't in the cards for me.

Whales (to me) that I have a chance of maybe getting one day
- bourbon county, any of them, still have yet to have reg, variant, anything.
- black note. It is possible since I am in Michigan, I just don't have he ammo

It blows me away when I see the haul thread and people post up extras which are things I'd have to trade hard to just get. Let along what their real trade was for.

 

Update to my previous post. I think I've found my new mission in life, courtesy of @joelwlcx :

Short's PB&J Stout, for both sentimental and taste reasons. It was on tap the first time I visited the brewpub, and that visit is what really kicked my love of delicious brew into high gear. It was on a flight with Chocolate wheat, Soft Parade, and one other brew I can't remember. Soft Parade is year 'round and Chocolate Wheat was made available in bottles last winter, but I still haven't been able to have the PB&J since. Hopefully the timing will be right one year and I'll be up north when it's available.

 

would love to try a HF, Heady, KBS or Huna - I know, not really whales

 

Probably still Heady Topper, the holy grail of beers, although Green and Julius by Tree House I'd like to get as much or more. Truth be told, I haven't had a single world-class New England IPA yet, Alchemist/Lawson's/Hill Farmstead/Tree House/Trillium/The Other Half, etc. I'm brimming with curiosity to see if those beers are everything they're said to be.

 

Atrial rubicite, myrcenario

 

Its probably more about the thrill of the chase anyhow.

 

Leukens liquors.com. That's where this CA guy got 4 six packs a couple months ago

 

BA Abraxas and Black Tuesday (and variants)

 

Not a white whale IMO but I cant get my hands on Beat. I suppose with the limited batches gets in the way. Waiting on batch 7..... Maybe then someone will trade me

 

Not KBS, KBBS which is different.

KBBS = Kentucky Brunch Brand Stout and is made by Toppling Goliath

 

People are asking for ridiculous sh*t for it though. Like upwards of $400+ in beer including other very big whalez

 

Me and a few pals have 2 cases of cake reserved for us. Should be going to pick it up before the end of July. We can do an IP in PGH sometime. Maybe at Brew Gentlemen? Shoot me a PM of what you could swap me for a bottle.

 

Thanks! I knew I had to go the online way to get my hands on a Jai Alai. Thanks for the link!

 

KBBS
Hunahpu
CBS
Double Barrel Mexican Cake
Swish

 

any ice creamed version of a brew. just to get the experience. go ahead & hate me, but I'm curious.

 

LPF

 

I've said it before in previous threads but 2005 Brandy Old stock ale.
