This has probably already been posted but this is one of the most douchey things I've ever read. https://mybeercellar.com/?itm=57917

Worth capturing if it goes away: This is Anchorage Brewing Companies most limited beer, and I am proud to be posting this beer to this site. This beer was very limited and only the most astute and elite of beer connoisseurs know how many of these were bottled. That number is a meager 147 bottles that were sold to the public and I know that because I know about what I am selling. Only the most progressive of beer drinkers know how many are left but this is certainly one of very few. My goal is to provide beer drinkers with the world's best beer. I believe that the inaccessibility of this beer should only make it better and knowing that it was mentioned on Facebook that 147 bottles were sold to the public and that only makes the beer drinker who knows that much cooler and progressive. This beer is priced with a progressive approach to bringing the greatest beer on earth to auction and allowing the entitled drinker a chance to purchase and quench their thirst. Only one bottle will be sold in this auction.

Used "progressive" three times, not once correctly.
 
I'm sure it was some sort of collaboration deal between Monkish and the owners of MyBeerCollectibles, and the person who made that listing is full of ****.

I'd respect Monkish way more though if they did just blatantly rip it off.

"We're a website that provides a middle-man service for the illicit sales of alcoholic beverages without the buyers and purchasers having the proper licensing nor paying government-mandated taxes. We want to sue because someone appropriated our logo!"
 
I suppose some folks just like to tick. It's an IP in Germany but Verdant, Cloudwater, Deya etc are just as good as what's available over here imo.
 
"Collaboration" IPAs are probably the laziest/easiest way to add undeserved hype to a beer. Literally nothing is being brought into the process in 99% of these: it's the same base recipes, the same yeast strains, and the same hop combinations. Oh wow oats and lactose with a mix of tropical fruit-forward hops, never seen that before! It's the same half-dozen breweries hanging out on brew days, making another riff on the stuff they usually make, and calling it a collab for marketing hype.

About the only ones where I feel like there was any value-add are the original "milkshake IPAs" from Tired Hands/Omnipollo. Because unlike almost all of the imitators, they really figured out how to do those well and hit the right flavor balance, at least on the ones I've had. I even went into the Neapolitan one expecting it to be disgusting, and it was surprisingly good.
