Logic says drink as fresh as possible but knowing the "difficulty" of obtaining that beer makes it hard
You're gonna drink them when they are declining. Is that really better than drinking it fresh and enjoying it now? I'd say it's a resounding no.
I drink fresh. That's my philosophy, but I do have like 8 beers "cellared" just to test the differences. All of them are Imperial Stouts except some BCBW. I had them all fresh and don't have this attitude that I can't drink them because I may never have that beer again. There are plenty of great beers out there to keep me satisfied than buying a beer just to go sit. You buy beer to drink.
And I don't consider cellaring the same as hoarding. I hate the hoarding that goes on within the craft beer community. It's very much against the best part of the community: sharing delicious beer.

That blanket statement has many flaws.
One of the best beers i ever had was a 3 year old bcbs.
Big boozy imperial stouts definitely improve with age.
Sn/rr brux collab was a million times better after a few years.
Some beers should be aged.

If you live in NOLA, or even visit there regularly, you better recognize that bar. It's too distinctive not to recognize it. No Stalk, IMO.

Mikkeller has no problems charging $8-10 for a 12 ounce bottle of often mediocre beer. At least Prairie makes beer that's worth it.
This.

I wonder how much prairie would cost if it was brewed across the pond. Terrible comparison imo.
Don't care. shite beer is shite beer. I always say I'll never buy another Mikkeller, then I do it anyway and bitch about it because it sucks. And it's my own damn fault.
More than likely NoBD, about to meet my grandparents in town for a minute then heading to Birmingham. So. Excited.
