Maybe a question for the lambic thread, but what in the **** is this "fifth bottling" of Cantillon OG:

http://mybeercellar.com/?itm=27986

Is this just a standard bottle of OG?

Yup. Regular gueuze. Not like a Millennium or special blend like that. Also, having purchased some older Cantillon, my guess is he is WAY off in terms of asking price. I'd say the fairer sale price should be around $250-275.

Apart from the silkscreened bottle, there's nothing all that different about millennium either.

I've always found the inflated values in lambic/bourbon for bottles that are basically a different/unique bottling of the same juice as something more acquirable to be one of the most perplexing aspects of the hobby (not saying this applies specifically to Millennium, but stuff like the Akkurat 50/50 for instance). At that point it seems like it's not even the "tickers gonna tick" mentality that drives a lot of it, but rather "collectors gonna collect".

Right, but my point was more of Millennium is a blend of De Cam and 3F whereas that Cantillon bottle isn't blended with anything.

Remember that bottle of 2003 BCBS that was listed for $1000, then $600? Now it's $350 as the seller keeps desperately dropping the price in the hopes someone will lose their mind and buy this thing:

"Mellowing in a wine cellar", lol.

The amount of people who have actual cellars vs the people who think they have cellars is cute.

I have an unfinished basement. By no means is it a "cellar". That guy probably has a refrigerator.

Also doesn't that bottle have a screw cap?

pretty sure it does. they still used them up until 07 or 08 i think. maybe they switched when they made the newer black label?

 

[SeaWatchman]

Yes but it screws off clockwise, this making it rarer.

But dude... it's "EXTREMELY RARE"
I mean it's so damn rare he had to start yelling about it, adds at least $150 to the value.

Another hyperbolic description:

I personally like the history lesson on the printing press used to make the labels. Fascinating stuff.

Oh and 350. For a DuClaw.

Probably the worst deal I've seen on there. The absurd hyperbolic description is just the cherry on top of the shitlord sundae.

To be fair, at least it's two tickets. Nothing shadier than going to Thailand solo.
