Trade Value Thread (TVT) Quarter 4 2018

id overpay probably

 

It must be hard now that people have stopped overpaying with limited BA stouts for regularly released hops we have all tried before
Thoughts and prayers

 

The struggle is real. Thanks.

 

For what I am seeing on secondary I think BG is close to NC, in terms of just secondary price. NC probably goes for slightly more in terms of straight cash. So it would reason that BG with a small plus could land a NC.

However, there are some really nice offers out there on Facebook for NC right now that are not closing.

 

BG with a Plus for a NC is what I threw out there. We'll see I guess.

 

FO value has dropped in the past month. I bought one (Batch 4) just to try, very disappointing beer and would never seek it again, even if I got great value in a trade. Can’t say the same about Black Gold; both because I’ve never tried it, and, doesn’t seem to be as ubiquitous as FO.

 

Too many breweries have dialed in hops now. In the last year, the quality and quantity of NEIPAs has gone up seemingly exponentially, and I’m just speaking for the Midwest/Chicago area. People rode the TH wave for a while (myself included, reluctantly trading BA stouts) and after trying some that I traded for, left me a bit underwhelmed. TH did change that genre forever, but, the code has been cracked by many others. I’m all for it, now I can keep my right leg and obtain amazing beers; locally nonetheless.

 

Am I the only person that still loves this batch of FO? It's ridiculous that it just gets thrown in as a trade extra now. Shit is delicious, even more so now with a couple months on it

 

It always tastes better when there's less of it.

 

Number Crunch was limit 2pp and sold out faster than FOb3 on its release date (same as FOb3). I'm not surprised being this looks like a one off. It's just gonna get harder here on out.

 

Bottle to bottle variation. If you traded FO during the summer I wouldn't be surprised if it got wrecked a bit. The b3 I've noticed some bottles being hot and others being utterly magical. B4 doesn't have the same kind of marshmallow that b3 had but give it a year it'll be a much better beer.

 

Canuckley, Kentuckley and Bring the Ruckley are all close to 1:1 with Black Gold. BG May be slightly higher. Make sure you get Kentuckley ‘18 if you are ISO. Even if BG is slightly higher than the Transient, as having had all of them I would not hesitate to trade 1:1. They are all excellent.

 

I think BG trades a bit higher than the trainsient stuff. I think you would need a small plus depending on which bottle you are going after.

 

The prairie he is asking for is limited minus the ABN. But people seem to want to hold onto those as it is a great beer. Good luck! I love tree house stuff but as people said, you can get equally as good beer nowadays locally. Actually, been disappointed recently with all the treehouse hops offerings which I think is another reason as well as they are more accessible nowadays.

 

Agreed. Its about half a VR. That said if someone wants to trade a VR for an ETL. Hit me up!

 

Seems about right. Probably (2) PC to Nath is more accurate. Just have to find someone with a Nath who wants to give it up for 2 of the same beer.

 

You are correct, it does trade a little higher, if you want to max out your bottle you can ask for a plus, if you want to close quickly then 1:1. All 4 are great and you won't get cheated taste wise by trading 1:1, at least that's what my taste buds tell me. Owner of all 4 so no horse in the race.

 

Boutit boutit and everybody dance now for Adjunct trail? Am I close or over?

 

How many of the Prarie Dawg beers would it take to pull a Weller CYPB?
