    So, I'm sure this has already been a thread before but I'll revive it. What beer(s) would you most like to see back on the market or brewed again? I'm talking one-offs, limited or retired beers that made such an impression that it was next to criminal that they are no longer available. This is certainly not limited to whales and it can include "ordinary" beers as well.

    For me I would love to see Lagunitas nighttime again and Firestone Walker used to have a porter I think it was part of the proprietor series? Ya I miss that one.

    My first choice would have been Xocoveza. However with the release of the BA variants and some of the pics on Instagram I feel like most not farfetched to think it's making a come back.

    If Pretty Things kept everything they ever brewed or collaborated on in rotation, it would be great:
    (maybe they'll actually need a brewery for that)

    - Hedgerow Bitter
    - Boulevard's Collaboration No. 3 Stingo
    - all of the "Once Upon a Time" beers

    That's easy. Founders CBS. Had it twice at tastings. First time the keg kicked in 21 mins, 2nd time I think it lasted 35 mins. Simply amazing brew. Founders, you did a extremely limited release early this year and I was thankful to have enjoyed several pours. Please make CBS the next in your back stage series.

    Celis White and Celis Grand Cru. Although it is technically not dead, I would like to see it come back to it's original flavor and distribution again. I hear it is only available in a few states. Sad.

    For me this is easy:

    Dogfish Head Squall IPA

    No discontinued beer is so sorely missed. Hoppy, loaded with adventurous boozy esthers, floral and delicious. As good at 2 years old as it is fresh. Legendary beer inexplicably retired.
