    I'll kick things off with my bourbon county ark (get it, there's 2 of everything -- well, plus extra bramble/coffee):

    Can't wait to pop this open in May with friends for law school graduation.

    What's yours?

    How far back?

    I heard if you buy/bought gratitude this year, they made you buy a vertical. Is that true?

    I have a small vertical of Anchor OSA going. Only back to 2008 right now but it's a start.

    That's an insane Bourbon County photo!

    One of my favorite verticals has been Deschutes Abyss. I've had 06-11. Also, Cascade Sang Noir 2006-2010 I believe it was. Mind blowing.

    Not true. There are older bottles available, but I don't think you have to buy them. Here is the latest update:
