ISO: DDG. And other wants that would interest me include Bramble/Cherry Rye, Mexican Cake barrel variants, and Upright Fantasia.

FT: JK Atrial Rubicite + Viking Metal and I will throw in other TX extras to round out $4$

Update: since I'll be in the Denver/Ft. Collins/Boulder area during GABF, I'd love to do a face to face trade while there. Specifically ISO Avery Thensaurum. Similar offer as above - can bring JK or other TX releases.

E: Also upping my ISO/FT. 2x Atrial Rubicite (and whatever else to meet $ value) for a DDG.

AR is trading pretty hot right now. Not insane hot, but if there's something you want to try more than those beers, you can do better.

Basically why I am looking for Fantasia or DDG, I think AR is totally reasonable for either and those two beers are the top of the list of what I want to try. Otherwise I don't really care about rarity and just stick to $4$

Makes sense. I know more so what I'm looking for but just didn't think my located beers would be as worth it to them.

I'm looking for Russian River, Alesmith, and Firestone Walker.

So a California or west coast goon perhaps. Looking for local stuff unless you are intrigued by a certain something out here.

I'm in MD, but can easily drive to DC or VA.

FW is easily found in DC/VA. RR/Alesmith you'll have to trade for.

Very Sour Blackberry is phenomenal and I'm really fortunate to have a bottle of it. I helped a buddy land one last week IP and this is what he traded for all of 1 bottle of Very Sour Blackberry:

750 ml growler of Hill Farmstead Double Citra
750 ml growler of Hill Farmstead Everett
2012 500 ml bottle of Hill Farmstead Birth of Tragedy

Jesus gently caress. I am definitely going to Detroit in Memorial Day 2014 (already bought a pass to Movement festival) - and I would be so down for an Ann Arbor bottle share if that could happen.

How hard would it be for my to trade Pliny for atrial? Am I still pretty far off? I'd really like to try atrial but I'm trying to acquire something that would be equal to it.

Biggest factor here is finding someone who wants to make that trade. I've seen that done, but I wouldn't do it since I have other ways to get PtE.

Piggybacking on fb - I advise against chasing a beer just because of hype factor. I don't recall seeing many posts from you regarding your taste preferences on the beer thread and I'd hate to see you end up surprised because the beer wasn't what you expected.

I don't know how the distro is out where you are but in Philly you can get Tilquin Gueuze, Monk's Cafe Flemish Red, and a bunch of other shelf-ish sours relatively easily. I'd go for what you can find local first, before trying to trade for one of the bigger hypebeers from this year.

IIRC he's in the DC/Maryland area. All of those (especially Tilquin) aren't hard to get, I'd also look at some Boon or Fond Tradition gueuzes.

The GBS is what ive gotten the heady, Pliny and abyss for so far. Surprised its trading this well.

That's weird, I heard in person that it was a one-time thing and also when I looked at it on the internet it said "brewed once". But that was months ago so maybe they changed their minds. Or also, maybe I am mentally retarded. Regardless, the winner is the customer because this is a wild feature.

There's at least three, possibly four batches of Bomb at this point (blue, red, and gold wax). Maybe one with no wax at all too, and that might have been AK only.

That sums it up correctly yeah, and that's exactly why the 4 packs are Arkansas only since it's illegal to sell singles there. I had heard of them existing through word of mouth but never bothered to research - thanks for that mrcowcow. In Texas, they'll more than likely show up as singles.

Now explain Pirate Bomb. Where the wax color has changed mid-batch, and each wax color is an ever so slightly different shade of green or blue.

It's just those two as far as I am aware. Booger green is the most common one I've seen, haven't seen the dark grey/blue-ish one in person.

Yeah I made sure everyone I was doing my Prairie trades with was down for a 12 bottle shipper. Recipient just specified how much they want of each beer but bottom line, it makes a lot more sense for the shipping.

2x12 bottle shippers would be the way to go it and that'll be roughly $35-40 depending on location etc.

If I can find enough of the beer in one place I think I may go for it.

e: also shout out to cryme, one of the many goons who took me up on sending out Prairie (I'm down to do this again in a few months so yall keep in touch). Awesome box in return! I'll post up all the loot together when all the other inbound boxes arrive next week.
