Random Beer Thoughts

[sherm10161]

Looks like reddit's beertrade community just got banned. I expect an influx of lost users asking for the trade forum in the next few days...

What that a big and/or particularly active trading community?

Get back to me when this is double barrel aged in maple + and has at least peanut butter, almonds, vanilla beans and bacon added.

My BA ten Fidys are about to command a high price. I knew this long con would pay off.

GREAAAAAT, here come the know it alls that been in craft beer a shorter time than 16oz 4 packs.

My favorite beer rating feedback is a 12%+ BA stout or Barleywine being described as ‘boozy’. Yeah, no ****. I think that was the intent.

The funniest part is watching Facebook trading groups talk **** about Reddit trading like their own habitat isn't a cesspool of greed and hubris.

Eh, there's different kinds of boozy. A big beer is going to have some alcohol bite, but when it's loaded with fusels then there are problems.

Perhaps this raises another thought: I love booze too much?

I'd say it was pretty active. Close to 22k subscribed users (who knows how many actively trading though).

What caused them to get shut down?

Updated their site-wide rules:

• Drugs, including alcohol and tobacco, or any controlled substances (except advertisements placed in accordance with our advertising policy);

• Stolen goods;

I'm quietly following the drama unfolding, people are getting upset lol

Falsified official documents

Back in my day, we had to work hard to get our fake ids, not just go to some shady website.

But this moves most likely means that Facebook will proooobably follow soon.... shitstorm ahead haha

Someone should start a new site for trading. Maybe something like beertrade.org

Ironically, selling booze on eBay is back!

Sweet, I can finally get that bottle of Dark Lord that always seemed too expensive to me back in 2011 when my monthly beer budget was 50 bucks!

Stupac'd.

Facebook technically already prohibited alcohol exchanges a while ago but they never enforced it much.

Ehhh, stupac2 just doesn’t love booze enough. It’s a ‘heart’ issue not a pallet issue.




Just kidding. I love stupac2 and he’s smarter than me.

I started trading there actually. Loooong ago. Been ages since I've been on there though.

Still, sad to see them go. Where's the drama unfolding?

Do want, but the last new bottled biscotti varients here have been retailing for $45 a piece. And to date I haven't had anything from Evil Twin at even half that price that I didn't fee like I badly overpaid to acquire. Still have a couple of $30 bottles from them I regret buying. I'm sure this nonsense will be $50+ here if we get it at all.

Not kidding. He is smarter than you.

Gene can we get all the new users who register in the next few weeks to have an " r/" added to thier profile so we can visually identify who those incoming Reddit folks are?

So it sounds like apparently the Pennsylvania cops are cracking down on beer trading? Seen this screenshot going around today:

lol PA is ridiculous. Wasn't there also a story of a guy getting busted for doing an IP trade? I remember some post on Pizza Boy's Instagram where they said any exchange of beer for beer is considered a sale and therefore illegal.

PA, the land of crappy alcohol laws and random cat killers who calls the bomb squad. Neat place.
