    Just as the title states. I'm curious what people have traded to successfully land one. I'm sure there have been many 1:1 for other big bottles, but I'm curious too if people have landed one with a 2:1, 3:1, etc. type of trade using multiple whale bottles. Thanks!

    I traded around 6-8 bottles of various imperial stouts (Darkness, Dark Lord, Black Tuesday, etc) for a package that included a 750ml 2011 Blabaer, a Vin de Céréale and a few other Cantillon bottles of various vintages. In person with a guy from Sweden who I'd been communicating with for a few months and suggesting some places to visit and stay while he and some friends were traveling through California. Thus not a standard ISO:FT deal and this was handled through RB where you have a lot more international traffic.

    I just did a trade where the main beers were a Batch 3 Beatification for a 750ml Blabaer 2011. There were a couple other beers involved but those were the backbone.

    I've got a 1:1 with Brandy Old Stock '05 for a 375 posted right now... We shall see.

    I'm curious how many bottle(s) and what "caliber" over a Rare it would take to land a 750ml. Any ideas/opinions?

    I thought that Brandy Old Stock was way harder to get than Blabaer, so that surprised me a bit when I saw it.

    In other news, really wish Cantillon had gotten this to Olbutikken by May 13...

    After all the Framboos, 3F A/T, lambics, whale glasses... you still also want to fish out the blueberry nectar too? :stuck_out_tongue:

    I'm contemplating trading a Damon + Rare for one right now if that is worth anything. I can't figure out if I want to or not.
