New trader questions and comparisons

[jtd_419]

[/QUOTE] I have a few Hunahpus from last year [/QUOTE]

I've got abyss if you're interested in a trade

 

[reefriot]

Id be down to trade for some Cigar City stuff if theres something from the PNW you want. Deschutes and 18 other breweries is in my backyard! Let me know:beer:

 

[pluchar]

If you are looking for anything in the Chicago area, let me know!

 

[ClarkBroham]

Huh this is all great info. Like I said I'm definitely going to do some more research, but I'll probably want to trade the hunaphu for other brewery only imperial stouts.

Anyone have suggestions of East coast shelf beers/Brewerys I should try to get my hands on by trading what we have available down here?

For brewery release/ wait in line all night for beer, I have Dark Lord, Darkness, and Barrel aged Sexual Chocolate available. And a lot of other limited stuff.

Would Vanilla Bean Dark Lord trade for Hunahpu bottle for bottle?

 

[skeezerpleezer]

Would Vanilla Bean Dark Lord trade for Hunahpu bottle for bottle?

Maybe for Double Barrel Huna. Vanilla Dark lord is near impossible to get.

Regular DL gets traded for Huna often.

 

[ClarkBroham]

Does Huna trade for Chocolate Rain bottle4bottle?

 

[ClarkBroham]

Or BBA Dark Lord? Or Dark Horse Bourbon Barrel Aged Plead The 5th?

 

[skeezerpleezer]

All BA DL are $50 and about 5% the bottle count of Huna. You also have to score a DL ticket (not easy) then if you get a ticket have to get a "golden ticket" to get the BA versions. So probably not gonna happen, unless you want to trade about 8-10 Huna for 1 BADL.

Chocolate Rain is $40 and you have to be a Reaerve Spciety member.

BA Plead the 5Th is 12pz bottles, I think around $25-30 per 4 pack (not sure this year) and has a high bottle count/allocation and has a release similar to Huna. So that is probably doable.

 

[ClarkBroham]

I see, that is very enlightening and sobering information haha.

So chocolate rain probably won't happen either? It seems closer than BADL.
Hm. So I'm looking at BA Plead the 5th. Or just regular Dark Lord eh?

 

[TheMan]

Yes, chocolate rain is closer. But you may have to add some to get it...choc rain for huna straight up wont likely happen.

For reference on the "value" of BA dark lord...my friend sold his port barrel aged dark lord for $250...barrel aged vanilla goes for over $300! Its ridiculous.

My BA de muerte dark lord (least desireable anyway) nestles safely in my cellar till I drink it....

So...I'm a complete noob to the idea of trading. I would be interested in swapping a homebrew or something from my local area, from time to time, but I wonder about packaging and legal issues. I don't think it's legal in North Carolina to ship alcohol, except to an authorized dealer/distributer. Can someone message me or reply with some information? I'm not looking to do regularly scheduled, official kind of stuff...just a "Hey, that sounds good...you want to trade a bottle or two for something?" or "Could I get you to try one of my homebrews and give me your opinion?"
