    Anything by Traquair House. Whether it is the standard Traquair House Ale or the Jacobite. I recently bought a house on the other side of town from where I used to live and discovered that the small packie down the street that I had always overlooked actually carries it from time to time and will order it. Alas, I'll have to find me a new white whale soon.

    Realistically, it'd be Wooden Hell or Blabaer for me.

    But if we're talking wet dreams, then M or Dave :wink:

    I was after Venus for the longest time. Everyone that had it held on with a tight grip. Thanks to their former brewer I finally got to try it. What a great beer it was! Speaking of which all the guys I've met from midnight sun are awesome guys

    Probably should of mentioned that it was for my friends wedding that went down yesterday. He did bring a bottle of Rare to share since he knew I haven't had that one yet.

    2000 Stille Nacht Reserva by De Dolle. Got a pour at the Beervana fest in RI a couple of weekends ago! KBS (not super rare) had also eluded me until that weekend as well. I guess I need a new white whale since I've finally knocked those two out. Haven't put much thought into it since I'm still reeling from the sheer joy of that De Dolle pour!!!
