    Have to disagree. Tried BBBM at a bottle share today and while it was good, I'll take CBS every time. I can see similarities but the CBS is far and away better. IMHO at least, for what that's worth. Either way their both delicious

    Patience. Most of these are whales, but not rares. There's a difference. Stay in the game long enough and you'll come across them eventually.

    DB Huna for me. Its like the Loch ness monster. People say they've seen it, but I've never seen it myself, and the pictures are always really grainy.

    After a point when you've had a lot of amazing beers, there are no more whales, only amazing beers.

    CBS, maybe KBBS but I haven't really tried to acquire it since people are looking to trade **** you for it

    Fuzzy from Side Project. This beer has evaded me for some time now. I had a trade set up for one a few months back. I was practically packing the box to send out when the rug got pulled out from underneath me. I am still ISO.

    P.S. If anyone has a Fuzzy for trade. Hit me up. I have all kinds of good stuff in return(Trillium, Treehouse, OEC,etc)

    Pliny the Younger when it hits Philly. There are plenty of release events near me but I always miss them because they are on a weekday and during a busy time a work.

    A'ight - since whaling was done in the 19th century, I have to say that I don't do it. Rather, I would like to visit a few places (actual breweries) - Toppling, Alchemist (sure, why not) - but more so> Surly, and Other Half Brewing. I'm getting to Surly next fall (conference) for sure, so that's exciting. Keep on hunting, though, Ahabs...

    Kind of past slaying whales, but if I had the opportunity I wouldn't mine trying KBBS, Dinner, and Pliny the Younger.

    For nostalgic reasons my twin whales are two full cans of Pig's Eye beer with the pirate label.
