    I recently got to partake in an amazing beer tasting, which included a few beers I'll probably never get to try again. I know there have been way better tastings than this, and I wanted to see what was the most epic. Here's just a few of what we had:

    Bourbon County Cherry Rye
    Huna '13
    Sucaba
    Zombie Dust
    Black Note
    KBS '12
    Backwoods Bastard
    Jai Alai White Oak
    New Glarus Raspberry Tart

    Yeah, I've had a couple Olys one on top of the other. I think one was the 95% Malt too.

    Oh and a Heineken!

    These threads pop up from time to time and honestly, my favorite tastings are ones with good friends, and 6-8 good beers. All of which I can actually taste before my palate is blasted.

    Splitting a fresh Hunahpu's before my buddy's wedding last weekend was pretty awesome.

    The flight at Burley Oak or the 10 beer sampler of DFH exclusives at the brewpub. I haven't been to an event like these but I feel there has to be a point of diminishing returns, but I wouldn't complain if I was at one of these.

    My buddy and I splitting KBS for the first time was a great moment. Really enjoyable and didn't really care what came after.

    Impressive. How could you taste all (or even half) of these before your taste buds quickly declined?

    I had this badass one in high school 18 years ago with several friends collaborating on this insane lineup:

    Bud Light
    Coors Light
    Miller Light
    Old English (funneled 12 oz)
    Zima (with the red jolly rancher)
    Schaeffer Light (we ran out of the good beer already at this point)
    Busch Light
    Grape Mad Dog (have no idea how that entered this tasting???)
    Natural Light
    10 Krystal burgers (white castle look alike)

    That was epic! I woke up in vomit in my neighbor's bushes at 7:30 AM???? Why would I even walk next door??? Crazy!
