    Samuel Adams Milennium. Can't say I like my chances with that beer.

    I am one of those with no Whale. Somehow I can't get out of the back of my mind what happened to Ahab when he found his.

    Don't kill yourself for this one, it's 90% hype, 10% good IPA. It's also the brewery's 3rd best behind Elder and Blind Pig.

    For me it's BVDL, although I doubt i'll ever trade for one given the amount of ridiculous beer you have to give up to get it. I'll just keep going to DLD and try my luck there.

    HipsteRIS, the beer so obscure even the brewery doesn't know about it.

    Maple Bacon Coffee Porter.

    Got a to try a sip at CW Anniversary Party last year and been looking to trade for a bottle ever since, but nobody is either willing to give it up or traded there's already.

    PtY reminds me of February in San Diego. It's freezing cold everywhere else, but summer in SD. That's why I'll always love this beer. And let me tell you- it tastes even better without the hype.

    You obviously haven't had Hopfather or a good batch of HappyHops. #3 is a stretch!

    I just passed by a case of it for $56, if you supply a shipping label/paypal I'd be happy to box it up for you.

    Fair enough, I haven't had those two, but my main point was that both Elder and Blind Pig are better... It was a good 5 months between them, but I might have liked Row 2 Hill 56 better too.
