    Looking for some help on trade value for The Alchemist Luscious. From what I know it was a 2011/12 beer that was saved from the flood and approx. 700ish bottles were sold at the brewery to raise money. Anyone have any past trade experience/info on this brew?

    I traded a properly cellared '08 Darkness for one. I walked away pretty happy and I am pretty sure my trading partner was just as excited as I was.

    Great, Thanks for the info! Is it as tasty as I imagine it to be?

    Someone offered me a Luscious + something else for a Deal with the Devil. Don't know if it was fair, but it was after I had excepted another offer for wildly different beers.

    Yeah, not sure what is fair for a bottle of this. Anyone think it would take, Rare, Assassin, BA cakes etc. to land one?

    More than likely in that ballpark, though I think Rare is very generous. The most recent time I had it was last December, and it was still tasting very good IMO. Worth going after if properly cellared for sure. Good luck!

    ^ Thanks for the input! I figured it was in the realm of possibility, just not sure how many are still out there.
