    Just started getting Ballast Point.. Dorado Double IPA is $9.99/btl..does that sound in the right price range?
    Also with 24 GOTS and 182 WANTS would it have a good trade value??
    Cheers..

    I'd say $4$ for other limited availability shelf beers. Then again, I pretty much try to trade $4$ and "like for like" for the most part.

    EDIT: Pretty sure $9.99 is what I paid for it

    About the same as its drink value - not much :sunglasses:

    Depends on the person and if they get Ballast Point. I saw it for like $9-10 and passed.

    That W/G ratio is likely due to the fact that this was draft only for a while, now that it is bottled all beer nerds can get back to their Babylon 5 torrents.

    This beer has a pretty wide distribution net, yet the holes are such that the orca pass through uninhibited. Like subscribers to SuicideGirls, people just want what they can't have, until they get it. Then you realize it is just another DIPA with shitty tattoos and a barista gig who listens to Godspeed You Black Emperor.

    that's an incredibly specific, and bitter, analogy. i like it.

    I like it too. The mix of rockabilly and free form poetry is beautiful.
