Default Anyone into beer like they are cigars?

I always seem to go from hobby to hobby, and after I was into cigars for such a long time, beer came along early last year. I joined Beer Advocate and started learning about everything that is beer. Then, I went to Dark Lord Day and was hooked. I started buying/trading/etc. for all the special releases and rare European beers. I've amassed a cellar of 250 rare/special release/retired bottles (bombers, 750's, and some 12oz) that is now crazier then my cigar collection was (I sold a lot of my collection as I got into beer). I never imagined that a bottle of beer could sell for $250.00, but I soon found out that was true (I thought the same about cigars, ie. 1492).

Anyone else on here collect/cellar beer or have a large collection?

Below are a few pics of the cellar and some of the rare beers I've managed to score. 1. beer cellar, 2. beer cellar, 3. Lost Abbey Cable Car (2007, 2008, 2009), 4. 3 Fonteinen Millennium Geuze (http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/3-fonte...um-geuze/21457), 5. Lost Abbey Isabelle Proximus (released in 2008).
