    Pretty simple, have 8 four packs I stocked up on when I found it a few weeks ago in Michigan. Realized I have way too much in my cellar and need to trade a few of these to maybe someone missing this beer this time of year or a first timer. Make me an offer, just looking to trade for hopefully something I've never had. I woul put its trade value at $20-40 this time of year. Bottled 12/11. Thanks!

    Not trying to threadshit, but there's a new batch of this being released on Sept. 4th. It's good with a little age on it, but I think most folks prefer it fresh.

    I would put it at around $10 since that is what is costs.

    a) wrong thread, b) the coffee falls off and 8 months is really pushing it, and c) its trade value is pretty steady at about $3/bottle. Also, FWIW, this beer doesn't have a ton of trade value, as it is readily available in half the country. You can get other locals for it, but that's about it.

    You probably want to read this before jumping into trading:

    I like it with a little age on it - if you're local to NYC, and can do an in-person trade, I'll do a simple dollar-for-dollar trade, assuming this cost you about $12. Otherwise - good luck.

    $30 for 8 four packs? I'll take that deal :wink:

    Seriously you should be able to score some good trade partners with FBS, heck BM me. Expect $15(ish) in good local and some limited releases. Trading up for high valued releases will be cost ineffective for you since you, since you will have to eat the additional shipping costs of sending multiple 4 packs

    What value did the store put on it when you bought eight 4-packs a few weeks ago?

    I'm willing to trade for anything at its value, I'm in Chicago so anything non-Midwest works that I haven't tried. Willing to pay shipping on a four pack to try something new. Also, if I can get it local like Bells, three Floyd's, Founders etc I can add it in as long as I can find it at the Store. Thanks

    $20-$40? Not sure I understand that one.

    I would put its trade value at approximately $1/bottle, as the coffee fades fast and a new, fresh batch is coming out within a month. Hopefully you can bring yourself to drink your lottery ticket.

    This is why I make sure to check this particular forum each night. It has replaced comedy central in every respect.

    This is perfect, because i have multiple four packs of Peruvian Morning from the limited sour batch that i value at $50 a pack, i would love to make a trade.

    Founders Breakfast Stout is not listed on Brewdex so all "value" is pure speculation at this juncture.

    i'd replace that overly informative and helpful response with two key words but since i did that already in a different thread and received a warning from the powers at be i shall not do it again.

    I'll trade you $40 worth of empty-collectible Pliny bottles.

    The allure of those empty bottles really falls off after the first 23 hours.

    If you aren't getting the bottles fresh from the glass blowers it's too old.
