    It would be a toss up between Prop., BA Abraxas, or Vanilla Darklord.

    I don't really have one in particular right now. Not that I've had everything, but I'm not into sours and I'm kind of tired of imperial stouts.

    I guess I'd like to try Aecht Schlenkerla Fastenbier on draft again like I did at Smoke & Barrell in DC.

    Also, it is great some people are trying to help others get their white whale.

    Would love to try Julius. IPAs are my favorite and I really enjoy citrus IPAs so its easy for me to say Julius is my number one want!

    Same. Although I didn't drop everything I was doing to seek it out or anything.

    I had 2 bottles of the OG BCBVS back in 2010 and I still remember it as my favorite beer I've ever had. Bought two, one to share with the guy who introduced me to Bourbon County and one that I drank a month or two later. This was back when a local beer store could put Vanilla and Rare on the shelf (which they did) and only a few people would even notice. Still sort of kicking myself for not buying a Rare since I had disposable income at the time, but I couldn't bring myself to pay $40 for a bottle of beer that I figured couldn't have been THAT much better than regular BC. Would have really enjoyed trying Vanilla Rye, though, and putting the empty bottle next to the bottle of 2010 I saved.

    I've been in Fort Myers my whole life. If you're new to the area, let me know if you need any information on the town - craft beer or otherwise.

    It was WWBV, then I landed one. Gotta open it soon, wonder if it's all I've hoped it would be since early 2013. If there's a wine BA saison better than Stenciled Pages, I need it, but there isn't anything in particular I've been drooling over lately.

    VSB or SHBRL would be nice, or a bigger pour of KBBS as I only had a trickle or Pappy Black Magick would be cool.

    DFH 120! Missed my chance couple years ago. Have not seen it since in my area. Anything Jester King. I can't even get this without a road trip. I guess I could get off my dead ass and go get it!

    I guess there are a lot of beers on my wish list, but I will go with those locally available that I just cannot seem to get: Carton Epitome and Regular Coffee. Cannot count how many times I have tried to catch these in the fridge at my local stores.

    I know it's not the same, I know, but if you put reg BCBS in a coconut, throw it in the fridge for a bit, it's a Prop '13 clone! Or french press with coconut flakes. It's very, very close homie - had it at a bottle share and we were all convinced.

    Definitely too many to pick just one, or one hundred.
