Your "white whale"?

Original bottling of framboos...

 

There's no "white whale" out there for me, I'm just not into "chasing" beers. If I happen to come across something I wanted to try, fine. If not, no big deal.

Probably the most anticipated beers I ever had were the Westvleterens, and the Narke Stormaktsporter. Both the regular and "kaggen" versions. I had about 4 different barrel aged versions of the Stormakstporter at the Borefts festival a couple of years ago. All were wonderful.

 

Millenium Geuze and 3F 50th Anniversary Geuze come immediately to mind.

 

if youre willing to throw about 15-20 bucks of something interesting, you can land a bottle. Trust me. I put up a bottle of Sexual Chocolate ($10) and Silent Night ($15), and got Westy 12 and 8. I actually enjoyed the 8 more, but thats neither here nor there. Westy 12 is alot easier than you think.

Thanks for reminding me, I wanna land the Blonde at some point soon.

 

Rare and Black Tuesday.

 

Meh, it's just beer to me. If I try something, great. If not, no big deal. I think people put too much stock in their "slayed whales" list as a pissing contest to see who has the biggest BA-peen.

 

At the moment mine are:
BCBS (hoping to find in SoCal this year)
JW Lees vintage Harvest
Adam from the wood
Zombie dust or nugget nectar
Hunahpus apple brandy
Westy 12 I guess

 

This year's is better than the Pappy version.

I are not kid.

 

Southampton Homage

 

Canadian Breakfast Stout. I think I have narrowly missed it once or twice in Atlanta.

 

Any BA Dark lord. Think that is getting sorted in December.
Ummmmmm Blue Moon Grand Cru. Always wanted that puppy

 

BBA vanilla bean dark lord. likely going to take the stars aligning for that one to become a reality. younger would also be up there - bit more realistic on that count.

 

Heady Topper

 

My "mule" acquired a taste for sours...

 

A few, Narke Stormaksporter, Blåbær, Duck Duck Gooze, and Chocolate Rain... Someday hopefully...

 

Sam mine is nothing because at the end of the day it's just beer and I could fucking care less if I try a beer or not as there are thousands available that I can just purchase off the shelf.

Good seeing you Saturday

 

Mmmmm, Blueberry Pancake Ale was Awesome, hope you can get your hands on it some day, you probably have to go to Kuhnhenn on St. Patty's Day.

 

My top 3:

1. Pliny the Younger
2. Yellow Bus
3. M

 

Jean says St Lamvinus is better than Blabaer, yet it gets mentioned much here. Isn't the universe a funny place?

 

It is go to Philly too. Just an FYI.
