    I’ve given up chasing the top 259, way more interested in the top 100 of the styles I love, or the top beer in each style
    But for those who love this chase, happy hunting!

    Do they even make “cutting tiles: Galaxy”anymore. I can’t say I’ve ever seen it.

    Currently happily accepting donations of any beer on the top 250, even the 65 I've apparently reviewed

    Although if it's a cinnamon beer, I can live without it

    Haven't looked at the list in a long time, seems like a lot has changed, though a lot has just shifted around

    Messaged Trillium in July on Instagram and this was their reply……note: heavy mettle was recently brewed and I’ve since ticked

    There’s no easy way to look this up….But If anyone is curious of what beers currently fall just outside of the Top 250, here’s what I have.


    251: Kuhnhenn Soltice Stout
    252: Dragonsaddle
    253: Red Eye November
    254: Miles to Go Before I Sleep
    255: 3f Schaarbeekse Kriek
    256: Double Shot Vanilla Bean
    257: Arcane Rituals
    258: Flora
    259: BA Expedition Stout
    260:
    261: Florence Punch
    262: Bubble Wrap

    Haha no way to look up just messing around with the top rated styles lists and finding out what’s just outside and keeping track. It’s an obsession LOL. Can’t figure out what 260 is so that’s why not filled in

    As of this morning…Treehouse Triple Shot vanilla Bean has been added to the list. Someone stated they had it on Draft at end of December and so I’m guessing that unretired it. It is showing currently on draft at treehouse Charlton …but not seeing cans available

    /: another one to chase. I wish I could just complete this list and be done!

    Same here - I'm not consciously trying to complete any of the lists and I don't trade, just seek out local beers when I travel. I am at:

    Top 250: 47/250
    Fame: 141/250
    Popular: 220/250

    That list represents whales for me, I live in a beer desert and I have only had 42 out of 250. That is Okay, I am working on the top 250 Popular; I have about 2/3rds complete. That list is more obtainable for me.

    For anyone looking to tick LPG in their quest for the top 250….a new batch has been released! I know it’s been quite some time

    Interesting. Distro in US? Nationwide?

    Also, not sure if you saw, but the 250 list got shifted a little bit. I think a couple of Other Half Anniversary beers got retired.

    Interesting - but they should not have been retired. Other half released both 3rd and 4th anniversary last year. 4th anniversary is pretty much a yearly release during their anniversary. Mods should check a little better before just retiring a beer because someone said it is.

    I know they re-released them last year. But do they plan to release them again or was it a one off? Could be good if we could find something on OH site or social media to validate.
