    Have to thank @Justdoit1234 for the Rum King. Looking forward to drinking that bottle of satisfaction, and hoping that we can grab a brew the next time I come through Mlps!

    Yeah man - Surlys new brewery for sure, then Town Hall for some Masala Mama and we'll finish the day at the strip clubs.

    If there's more than a hat in that mystery box like you hinted there's gonna be swift retaliation today too....

    Christmas Morning. Tried and loved the other Hardywood stouts, but can't seem to get my hands on this one. Sounds right up my alley.

    I have the feeling that 90% of us are dealing with that.

    Trying to trade for the new weekdays has been a huge pain. People are asking for 1:1 with Rare 2015, asking for BA Abraxas/Derivation/TG stouts, etc.

    I miss the good old days...

    Can't seem to find a BAVSS. People want an arm and a leg or just don't have what they want.

    Fundamental Observation. I've missed it at a share and a festival 3 times now. And trading for it... ok, that's just not happening.

    Missing it at a share would probably bother me most. Honestly, the opportunity to discuss a beer like that with other beer nerds would be great.

    I know, I know very well. But nonetheless the thread was about beer that keeps escaping me- all beer is eventually coming back.

    This would have been my choice as well, but Recently scored a BAVSS after several unsuccessful attempts..so the next one is Good Morning , been to Treehouse a few times and have missed them having this by a week or So, and when it is available, I seem to have prior commitments that I can't get out of..

    Bodhi. I would love to try it, have not gotten close. Seems like it should be bottled soon, maybe my luck will change!

    It's good but it isn't life altering

    Double Sunshine and Sip of Sunshine are taunting me at the moment. There's a haze of disappointment clouding around me.

    Hm. SoS should be fairly easy, just have to find someone reasonable to trade with. AKA, don't believe folks that ever talk about how it's hard to get, etc. Should trade $4$ with other similar quality IPAs (Todd, Abrasive, etc.).
