    HF Ann. Doubt I'll ever be willing/able to trade what it takes to land one.

    I've got a bottle I'm willing to part with if you've got a cellar dweller you're willing to part with. Let me know!

    I'm headed home to CT this weekend and I know a place that sells them for $11. Let me know if you want me to check for one.

    i am sure it is every bit as good as the hype
    also pliny the younger....my local favorite pub, the west end tavern had a keg of it years back and it was gone in 20 minutes....there was a line around the corner before they opened the doors

    PtY is probably the one I've been seeking out the longest, since I'm pretty sure it's been in the top 10 since I joined the site 5 years ago, and I'm still no closer to having it. HF Ann is probably #2, as I've had almost everything HF has done, but never that one (Blueberry Flora and CD11 also meet that criteria). I've given up on some of the uber rare Cantillons like Loerik and Don Quijote, as I just assume those are never going to happen at this point.

    Why is Pliny the Younger so rare? They just don't make it very often?

    Yea Dan, they do it one time year in only a handful of places (allocated to a certain amount a day, served until it's gone for the day), don't bottle it or allow take home growlers of it.

    I know people go bonkers over Pliney the Elder (and rightly so), but Blind Pig is another excellent choice from RR and may be easier to get your hands on.

    And the one time I had it was at the GABF when Todd and Jason had a booth there.

    New Glarus R&D Wild Peach is certainly number one for me. Fou Foune, Peche n' Brett, and Focal Banger are all right up there too.
