I would totally be down for a trade, and I can get you some good brews from the east coast in return. Post back when they are available and we will work something out for sure
Sounds good! I'll reply back when I've got some estate harvest in hand!
You may have to get your hands on a bunch! Sounds like there's quite a demand (understandably so). If I can't get some locally I'd probably participate in a trade also. I can get some stuff from Coeur d'Alene and Northern lights brewing in bottles to send you.

You know what? I think you're right!!! That's cool though, it would be great to try out some microbrews from other parts of the country. The only bad part...is that this estate harvest doesn't usually come out until September/early October.
Ah well, we'll have plenty of time to get mentally prepared for it's goodness. And it better be damn good, the way this is getting hyped up!

Keep us updated on this release. I have really been enjoying their Harvest Ales and can hardly wait for this one. I'll talk to my guy locally and see if I can help with this trade as I live in Nor Cal, I wont have anything for the OP, but may be able to help some of the others.
If you're going for the Seattle swap (not from me, obviously) go for the Elysian stuff. They're the best in the city to my tastes or at least were 8 or 9 years ago when last I went....
September! ....October!! Anticipation.....Anticipa yay shun, it's making me wait.
Well I was going to start trying to accumulate some Seattle stuff this weekend, but I'll hold off several weeks so it's fresher.
Mr Hollingsworth,
I agree the Elysian is my fav brewery of the dozen or so I've been too in the Seattle area. Just because everything they make is good. There are a few gems here and there at some of the other breweries, just not another one so well rounded to my tastes. Hop heads would more likely be found in Mulkilteo at the Diamond Knot though for their Imperial IPA. That and the joy of using the bathroom. Why would using the bathroom bring joy.....here is a pic of the urinal at Diamond Knot I took a while back. It's been the same for years there. It just seems appropriate.
