    BA DL is always worth it (not sarcastic). There is magic in those DL barrels. My guess would be Rare, King Henry, and CBS may pull one in.

    I just drank mine with my buddies last week. It was fantastic and worth what I gve up or it. I had to give up Cascade The Vine, Cascade Blueberry, SH BRL, Coolship Resurgam, BCBS 09-11 12 oz vert and Beat batch 5 for it. However, that was right after Darklord day this year when more bottles were around for trade. It probably would take more than that now. I would post your bottles and tell people to pick 6 bottles from the list. You obviously could assign some of your bottles to count as two bottles (Rare, CR etc.)

    If you like Southern Tier Creme Brulee but think it is too dry... go for the VB DL.

    Never had the VB DL, but that's the most evocative beer description I've ever read.

    FWIW Chicago people, and those close to Chicago, have had a shot at the majority f the list at one point in time. So it may be tough.
