    Around me, I've seen Parabola and BCBBW on tap once. BCBS and DFH 120 were both on tap twice within a two month period. I've seen PtE on tap near me at least four times in the last six months. Last week, I had a 2012 FW Double DBA on tap.

    Not exactly whale status, but the bigger of the two tap houses near me once had Deschutes Black Butte XXIII, XXIV, XXV, and XXVI on tap on the same night. That was a fun night.

    CBS is probably it, like everybody else. In the "not quite whales" category, KBS comes around from time to time, and Zombie Dust can be had decently regularly around town.

    Not sure it qualifies, but:

    I had Vanilla Bourbon County a few days ago on tap for a tap takeover. Nobody really showed up at all for it.

    I tried Pliny The Younger a few years back. Got there early for a burger and kill some time. Walked out, and hundreds of people waiting.

    On tap? I live in Utah where the law requires all draft beer 4% or lower. No whales here.

    A couple weeks ago one of my locals had bourbon barrel aged Plead the 5th. I was very happy I got to try it.

    You are the f'n man! Thank you! What an awesome community this is. Next time you head over to Ale Arsenal let me know, first round's on me!

    Called and had them pull one aside. Now they have one left. Can't believe this was at a grocery store when all my usual spots told me they sold out the same day it was released!

    Where?? My parents live in MKE and I visit once a month or so and would like to check out some good spots when I go. They live on Lake Drive.

    Had Fou Foune from tap but it was disappointing. I much prefer the bottles.

    The price was the same for each round of the playoffs. $14 for a 5oz. pour. I was able to get reg, coffee, and vanilla rye, but was not able to get a ticket to the finals for prop, but @saemick popped one open as soon as the clock hit zero and we won the cup!!!
