    I have been deciding for quite a while now whether to trade beer, or not. Given that I have reached a point where I have pretty much tried everything there is in FL and southeastern GA, I figured I'd try this path to getting my hands on beers I would normally never get to see, or better yet, try.

    So...Where do I start? Is there a thread that helps walk a newbie on the protocols, dos-n-donts, to getting started? (Am I making this harder than it really seems?)

    Anyway, any and all advice will be welcomed. Thanks for reading...

    José...

    You’re welcome. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. Plenty of helpful people/traders on here to guide you along the way. Check out the trade forums to get ideas on beers. Also, Trade Talk forum is a good place for general questions about ins and outs of trading, other than the BA link I replied with above.
