So recently, I've started somewhat of a beer collection. It all started while at Party Pak Liquors down at Stop 11 and Madison on the southside of Indy. I saw a Sam Adams Limited Edition Double Chocolate Porter. About that time we also got a fridge for the garage.
I tossed that beer in the there and followed it up with the Mikkeller Its Alive! Belgian sour beer. My brother and I drank the sour and blogged about it previously (link forthcoming).
The wife picked me up a bottle of Rogue Double Dead Guy which weighs in at a whopping 9%+ alcohol. I love Dead Guy. How much better would Double Dead Guy be?
My most recently aquired brew is two six year old bottles of Dogfish Head 120 Minute IPAs. Normally it would be an exercise for the user to buy the bottles and age them themselves. However, Twitter saved the day and I heard about these bottles.
So where does this leave me? With a problem. What is the appropriate occasion on which to bust these amazing beers out? This has been my struggle lately. Any suggestions for an occasion would be appreciated.

I think the perfect occasion is actually no real oaccasion at all - crack them open one night when the kiddies are in bed and you and the wifey are grabbing a few minutes of silence.
Dude,
You should have been cellaring stuff all winter. Not much beer releasing now to cellar....winter months for that. I have a fine selection (as fine as the midwest can provide that is) of huge stouts now in mine....
Yeah, had gotten most of the stuff earlier in the year, Jan-Mar. The DFH 120 Minute just popped on my radar the other day due to a Twitter message from @worldclass. I plan on stocking some Stouts this winter.
