    I know this will get deleted, but can anyone tell me what the functional difference is between each of the CDs? I just don't know HF well. Seems like some are much more sought after than others, though.

    ongoing experimental barrel aged blended series. barrels of Ann and Art and others that don't make the cut get used for CDs I think. some are aged on fruits. I think what makes some more desirable is fruit used or if a blend is mostly comprised of Art..etc. someone / anyone please correct me if I'm wrong here.

    You are correct. It is just a blend of different barrels that didn't make the cut for their more notable beers (Flora, Art, Ann) and some other barrels they have aging. The more desirable CDs are the ones that have large components of the big three mentioned earlier.

    Hill Farmstead's description:

    Civil Disobedience is our blended barrel aged series of Farmstead® ales, each one a unique union of carefully selected beers chosen by our brewers to weave often disparate threads into a picture far greater than its individual elements.

    Not so much "didn't make the cut" - when they are blending the volumes that they are, there are fragments that are left unused. Rather than discarding the fragments, it can be further blended in the smaller amounts yielding the Civil Disobedience series. Hence the extended barrel aging for particular fragments of the individual Civil Disobedience beers.
