    If you're looking to trade then do as was stated and post in the ISO:FT forum. If you just want to list it as available for trade then add it to your Gots. You can identify which of your Gots are for trade or not.

    You can also list any beer as a Want.

    I understand this much I just do not see a way to add beers to wants/gots. when i click on the tab to view them it just says there are no beers listed and it doesnt give me the option to add.

    When you are on your personal Gots page, checkmark the boxes that you want to put up FT, then scroll to the bottom and hit the trade button. If this isn't what you were wondering what to do, whoops.

    Check out an individual beers ratings/reviews page - the options for this are on the right side of the screen.

    Not as far as I know, I remember being a little perturbed by this at first to - but let's just say you're looking for Racer 5 - click the beers tab, search for Racer 5 - then click the box next to 'wants' - or alternately, if you have Racer 5 and want to trade it for something else - you can click the box next to Got or FT (for trade).

    Easiest route still though, is to just post in the trading forum FT: (beer you have) ISO: (beer you want)

    That 'Add Beer' option means to add a beer to the database that isn't already listed.
