I'm going to try to make this post the least confusing as it can be. I have one bottle of CBS to trade. I'm looking for any of the following, and I will throw in more if need be: -Chocolate Rain -BCBVS x2 -Czar Jack -Churchill's I also have a bottle of Kate the Great from 2012. I will only trade this for a bottle of Kate the Great 2011. Obviously I will throw more into the trade. I have a good amount of rarities in my cellar and there aren't many that I'm not willing to part with. BM me if interested, again if you have any of the bottles I posted ISO we can work something out. Thanks!
Some of the things in my cellar...BA Naked Evil, Surly Darkness, BA Yeti, Eclipse stouts, BCBCS 2010, etc.
In case you change your mind about trading Kate the Great 2012 only for 2011, here's an offer: How about 1 Kate the Great (~$8, 2000 bottles made, lottery release w/ ability to purchase 10 tickets per person per day) & 1 CBS ($18, 1700 bottles made, 2 bottle limit) for 1 Chocolate Rain (~$35, 3 bottles only for reserve society members, rough guess is there's 3/member * 1000 members = 3000 bottles). It's not precisely dollar for dollar, but this helps account for slightly lower bottle count & allocation of Kate the Great & CBS. How does this sound? Best, Roy P.S. I have Churchill's, but I'm probably not going to trade that readily. I think it was only 300 bottles and I got 2. It's rarer than all the other beers discussed.
Just an FYI - CBS bottle count is way higher than 1700. I can't recall the exact number but it was somewhere in the 10,000-15,000 range. Remember it was mass distributed, even though the brewery release only had a small number of bottles.
@cbeer88 Oh, yeah, that's right, it was distributed! @mgp2675 I'm a noob with PMing on BA. I have no idea where to see your PM. I'm trying to find it.
I believe it was 12,000 bottles being that there were roughly 1,000 cases. Which sounds like a lot but Founders never said they're bottling it again.
http://www.foundersbrewing.com/blog/beer-releases/cbs-allocations-and-pricing They don't directly say they're bottling it again, but they say, in their CBS allocations webpage, that they are trying to expand their capacity to make more of their specialty beers (which I take to include CBS). I believe they'll keep bottling it.
I have a bottle of 2012 churchill's that I am willing to trade...this is new to me so I am not sure what defines as fair. Make me an offer.
