Trade Value Thread (2020)

I don't think any of those are super valuable, I'd be surprised if you could close a 24:1 with any of your listed ISOs. The 3 you listed are upper echelon, basically some of the most valuable beers in existence

 

This is probably close but having previously attempted to trade for bourbon, I have consistently found that the bourbon tax is much steeper than one thinks. It appears that most people want cash and they are more willing to sell bourbon at secondary market values or below before trading. Tangentially related, I recently saw a snapshot of the secondary market on FB and I was amazed how much of an up charge people are asking/getting for something like basic Weller or EHT. More so, it would seem that liquor store owners are now doing this for profit. Fun fact, people line up at VA ABC stores for said bottles.

 

Thoughts on Coex Blauw for Umibozu? I'm on Coex side.

 

Thanks for the feedback! What if I added the following to the list, do you think that would close one of them?

2007 Lou Pepe Kriek
2018 Fou Foune
2010 3F Schaerbeekse Kriek

 

I don't know the specific values of the beers you mentioned, but the 2007 LPK and 2010 Schaerbeek Kriek helps a lot.

 

New to trading so not sure the value of these and was looking for a couple bottles of one or more of these three:

1. Olde Mecklenburg Mecktoberfest
2. New Glarus Staghorn Oktoberfest
3. Jack’s Abby Copper Legend

I have some things to trade but not sure if any are enough value to get a trade done and figured I’d ask here before putting out a trade request. I made a rough list of what I have below. Thank you for any feedback

You can definitely get that done. In fact, you could probably get a whole pile of your ISO beers for some of the Bottle Logic and Fremont you have, amongst several others. What you might have difficulty with is finding someone who can get 2 of those 3 beers in one trade as they may be completely different distro. New Glarus is WI only for sure. Jack's is MA and maybe a few other NE states, and not sure about Olde Meck footprint.

Best of luck!

 

One good thing to note is that Jack's Abbey recently did a drop in (I believe) several states, including Ohio. This should help @The_Gingerbeard_man .

 

Thank you for the replies, they have been most helpful.

 

For what it’s worth, I sent my EHT Single Barrel and received an Asssassin 20’
1:1

Not sure on exact secondary values, but both sides were happy.

 

That is a good metric for trade success. At the end of the day, if you want to drink something, the $ value is “secondary”

try the veal!

 

Need some feedback on the value of Stagg Jr 2020 or 2019 in exchange for BL FO. Would the value of a vertical of BL FO, (1x of each '18,'19, and '20) be close on the value of 1x bottle of Stagg Jr '19 or '20? 3:1 ratio

 

I think the FO side would be slightly lucky to make that happen. I’d say something like Hypermash + FO ‘18 may be more of a fair trade. Also keep in mind that there are 2 different 2019 Stagg Jr batches (b12 and b13). B12 is the one with 132.3 proof and trades a little higher than any of the more recent batches (b10 through b14)

 

Thanks for the feedback. Very helpful!

 

Not sure of the value on Private Press considering this is the first release so a little help on this one would be appreciated guys.

Anabasis B4 + Wild Thai Banana Macaroons for
Private Press Beyond Forever + Life Is Round

On the SP/NP side, am I over paying?

 

Are there any reports as to whether Brad's new beers are thicker than the ones he produced at JOs? BWs were never a "problem" from this standpoint, but I think if his stouts have the same consistency as those he produced at JOs, it's going to be hard for them to transcend the valuation (no matter how limited) that the highest JOs beers traded for (think Appervation B1, especially pre/at onset). (This is coming from someone that likes them, but recognizes how the beer community views consistency, and thicc stouts are correlated with value in today's "beer market".)

If that's helpful.

 

The limited reviews I've heard regarding his new stout is that it is not super thicc but it's great. So similar to the stuff he produced at JO's. I'm hoping that means they don't trade crazy high and I can get my hands on some without giving up an arm and a leg.

 

I think it's hard to tell at this moment. Not many trades have closed, so there isn't an established value. That said, the offer you listed seems generous. I'm a PP member and I'll have these bottles in about 2 weeks; I'd add a plus on my end for the two bottles you listed. If you're interested in chatting, shoot me a PM.

 

Agreed. If they aren't making black beers with stout goobers or heavy handed candy bar flavorings, we can count on accessibility relative to most modern stout whales. Unless they consistently keep things very limited while also attaining rave reviews for each release across the spectrum, and even then it would probably take a couple years to really build higher trade value.

 

Unfortunately it feels like part of the reason people got into private press....trade crazy high /value crazy high
