    I searched, and it doesn't look like this has traded much lately.

    I'd like to procure a bottle for an upcoming birthday share at the end of October, and don't want to put up a ridiculously off offer, so I'm interested to know if anyone has traded for one/traded one away lately, and what this generally has been going for.

    Thanks!

    I know that The Anniversary was sold at De Garde's 2nd anniversary party and was $14, but does anyone know the bottle count? I haven't been able to find that info.... Thanks!

    Everyone received one in their allocation that Saturday + 9 peeps the following morning that Sunday that were in line first thing. I was #14 that Sunday.

    Ended up getting this done in a slightly larger deal thanks to a helpful CO trader:

    Framrood + Cellarman + Nectarine Fruitstand for DG Anniversary + Montmorancy Fruitstand.

    Both sides were very happy.

    Right on, thanks. Now I gotta figure out how many people were at the party and add 9

    And as for trades, I also tradd VR for it 1-1. He threw in a shelf De garde as well.

    Is it critical to know exact bottle count? Your assumption about party attendees+9 assumes everyone at the party bought their allocation which isn't true. It also assumes no bottles were held for onsite consumption which (probably) isn't true.

    Bottle count was almost certainly 400 - 600.

    Is it critical? No. I believe my life will go on regardless. Don't even need an exact number, but I'm curious as to the number of bottles they made in comparison to the 250 bottles of Broken Truck.

    I live on the other side of the country as De Garde so I've never been to their anniversary party. I don't know if its 100 people or 2,000 people. 400-600 is the first ballpark answer I've gotten, so roughly double the amount of bottles as Broken Truck. Thank you.

    Yeah, didn't mean my message to seem snarky. Sorry if it came off that way!

    The party has somewhere around 400 people. Maybe a few less. This upcoming party is maybe a bit bigger - ~550.

    So my assumption of numbers comes from thinking 350 - 400 at party + 9 day after + some held back onsite (4 - 5 cases?) + margin of error. I'd guess closer to 400 but I could be wrong.

    As a general rule any "The" beer is going to be low bottle count (The Lily, The Duo, The Broken Truck, etc).
