Ive been collecting Killer Penguin and Black Chocolate Stout for a while now to do a verical tasting. I am missing the '08 for KP and the 06-07 for the Stout. Does anyone have any recommendations on tracking down bottles like this, do retailers hold onto old years of beers like this? Or am I just out of luck on these missing years.

I'd try some of the beer geek forums. Beer Advocate, beerpal ect... IIRC they have some swap, exchange deals around.

I'm an engineer, so I'd mix the '07 and '09 together and call it the '08. :D
