    I would like to get 2-3 '10 Abyss. Just wondering what I should offer. I read thru MANY older threads - better info on '06,'07...not so much on '08 (which I would like as well) or '10. Shooting for '10 first, then go from there.

    I got one for a LP Framboise.

    I traded a FW 13 and two dirty hippies for a '10 and '11 abyss and deschutes once a decade.
    I have an ip trade pending for a '10 that I'm giving a southern tier Mokah and two expedition stouts for.

    It should be fairly easy to trade for, just need the right set of eyes to see it.

    I just had a 09, 10, 11 vertical and 10 was far and away the best IMO. I would think it shouldnt be too hard.

    I'd give you 2 bottles for the King Henry in your gots. Or 2 bottles for the Arctic Devil and Fremont BBomb

    I would say score some now. 10 is drinking very well right now and will probably get better over time. Hurry up and score some before this too becomes another bottle one has to give up his mortgage for.

    Don't take this the wrong way, but you're asking a ridiculously open ended question here. There are a ton of 2010 Abyss bottles floating around, and what everybody will give them up for is going to differ wildly.

    I would say - more than a current shelf beer but less than anything super limited.

    No offense taken. Left open ended on purpose (not sure if I agree with the "ridiculously" characterization, tho I acknowledge your opinion). As I figured, most people are handily figuring out my real purpose is for folks to reach out to me if they are interested. IMHO, open ended ISOs, not appropriate. Here, acceptable.

    I appreciate your input.

    Depends...I'd probably be willing to set up a trade for BCBS varients that are coming out in the future for my '10 bottles for example.

    Types of beers that trade $4$ for 10' Abyss would be:

    Heady Topper
    KBS
    BCBS
    Backwoods Bastard

    etc..

    Somewhat limited, but stuff you can stumble upon in quantities.

    From what people suggested to you here, I would NOT center any 10' Abyss trade around:

    Any Cantillon
    King Henry

    And I wouldn't agree to trade the upcoming BCBS variants for it, until you know if those will be readily available to you, because they may end up being very limited and you may really enjoy them. More than likely they will be much more available, much like the base this year, and that seems like a pretty reasonable trade.

    Do you get BCBS in Colorado though?


    Either way, late night musing. Not trying to disparage those helping you, just giving my 2 cents.

    I'll give you two '10 bottles for a few minutes of laughter and a shared beverage in the coming weeks. I'll toss in an '08 to sweeten the deal.

    That's like a hot chick promising sex on the first date if you let her super-size her value meal. You better jump on this OP!

    It would appear that he's able to find people to offer them, and he knows they're out there.... the UnknownFactor is what he would have to give up to get them....

    (This is also my way of saying "whatcha want for em'? because I is interestado..." )

    I have a 10 and an 11 Abyss. Really not up for trade.

    well, THAT was helpful. I have nothing up for trade either, but a couple buddies have a whole lot to drink with me.
    If you're up to giving them away though, let me bm you my info. :wink:

    Thanks brother. Feel free to work it out with J-park if you like. I'm sure Bard and I are on.

    Can't believe this crazy ass Denver group. You all are so sickly selfless, and a tremendous pleasure to know.

    THAT IS FACT.
