I just started to get into microbrews... and I really really want to try one of the Pliny's, but none are available anywhere close to OH.

I'm going to do my best to start saving up some of the nice seasonals from around here in hopes of being able to trade for them one day. I live in Akron, OH... about to go up to Hoppin Frog to see if they have any Barrel Aged BORIS Royale lying around when I'm free this week...

Looking to see if anyone has access to or has Great Divide Barrel Aged Yeti or Barrel Aged BORIS Royale from Hoppin' Frog.

I went to Hoppin Frog earlier today and was told they will probably never brew Barrel Aged BORIS Royale again :(

I wish you the best of luck finding some, it sounds delicious!

Does anybody have access to a ridiculous amount of Pliny? I'm talking like 8+ bottles, and at least 2.5 weeks fresh of when you'd able to ship.

I understand that at most places there's a limit of a few bottles, but I'm not sure if you can get a bunch if you know the right people...

This is just mostly for reference, I probably won't be able to trade for a month or two!

The condition that "I don't know when I want them but they have to be fresh" is a bit difficult too, I think since most places that get them just get them whenever Russian River happens to ship them. But good luck!

This is why I posted in advance... I was wondering if anyone lived very close to the brewery.

I just traded and got 2 bottles that had been bottled 2 and a half weeks prior to me receiving them, and the person I traded with doesn't live incredibly close to the brewery, so I didn't think it would be that difficult for someone who does live close!

Toxx posted:

Goodluck! When I left Santa Rosa I took with me what I could from the brewpub and that unfortunately only amounted to 6 plinys at the time.

I would be down for trading 6 Pliny's if that's all I could get. 8 was just a high "oh gee it would be awesome if I could actually get this many fresh". It just kinda sucks to really want several of one beer specifically in a trade and only being able to get ~2-3 when it's not really a rare beer that has limited releases (it does in some senses, but not like many 'rare' beers).

I still have a source that has 6 packs of Hopslam. Unfortunately, they want 29.95 per 6 pack. I can also get KBS for $20 per bottle. This place is an absolute ripoff, however it's also the best selection in Pennsylvania, given our crazy liquor laws.

Do any of you have access to Kuhnhenn? I'd love to try one of their meads they've released for their March event. I have a bunch of BA Blackout Stout, a few bottles of Black Note, and other sorts of things.

I'm also interested in a bottle of Hunahpu, although I'm not quite sure I have rare enough stuff that people would want to trade me.

I can get Raspberry Tart or Serendipity pretty easily and also have some of practically every New Glarus unplugged/thumbprint made in the last few years in my cellar. Last year's Apple Ale, Cherry Stout, Cran-bic (both years actually, the old stuff is really funky, oaky and sour), Enigma, ABT, Barley Wine, Smoked Rye, maybe a Chocolate Abbey or two, even a few bottles of Imperial Saison still.

I also have a few cellared bottles of Surly Darkness (09 and maybe 10), and FFF Dark Lord (09-11).

What would you want out of that to part with a black note? Also are they 12 oz or bombers?

I sent you a PM, lets work something out!

Darkness and Dark Lord vintages are worth way more than what I've got, but I'd love to get some New Glarus from you.

My boss was travelling and asked if I wanted anything from Three Floyds. My response was "as much Permanent Funeral as you can get". He literally got me the maximum, which was two cases. Totally fine because this beer is amazing, but I seriously doubt I'll drink this much before faded hops, bro. Anyone interested?

I'm willing to go $4$, here's a sampling of what I'd love to try:

Heady Topper (I've brewed with Conan yeast, but have never had a chance to try this)
Hardywood Gingerbread Stout
Barrel Aged Blackout
Surly
Crooked Stave
Also sours. I like sours.

Anything I can't get in Michigan would be appreciated.

How do y'all go about determining fair value for trades? Someone offered me Hardywood gingerbread stout, bourbon gingerbread stout, and a can of heady topper for one of my jester king atrial rubicite's, which sounds decent to me, but an acquaintance at the bar told me to hold out for more. Any advice on how to determine appropriate trade value?

Also, I have a bottle of atrial rubicite I'm willing to trade (outside of the one mentioned above), if anyone is particularly interested.

I could offer you something else if you'd like - I've been on the look out for an atrial rubicite.

Hello goons, I'm interested in trading growlers from a few excellent breweries that i'm local too. Their beers are so good, i'm willing to send them out to people to spread their quality around.

One will even fill a 64oz growler :getin:. You send it to me, I'll get it filled. Let your faith in craft beer be tested.

It would probably be way more cost effective to just have people send you money/beer for the growler. Shipping an empty 64 oz growler would almost certainly be more expensive than getting a brand new one. Around me empty 64 oz screw top growlers go for ~$5, and I know shipping one would cost quite a bit more, if you include the cost of packaging materials.

Either way, I'm sure people will be interested. Thanks for the nice offer!

Edit: After rereading your post, I may have just misunderstood you. Either way, cheers!
