    I know that Cognac DL has gone down for Mimosa.

    Didn't realize the bottle count on this was as low as 450. Dammit. I could have sworn I saw a "latest hauls" pic where somebody grabbed three. Was there a limit on this at HF when it was released?

    Limit was 2 and bottle count was closer to 300 I believe. $20 a piece.

    I think Juicy (should be released in the next couple months) is a better bet to try to grab. I think I heard it referred to as a "Mini-Mimosa" at one point. Someone can correct me if I'm mistaken. Should be much easier to get too.

    I think that might just have to be what happens. Was already planning on ISO for that one, sounds delicious.

    I wouldn't know what it takes because my efforts went unanswered :slight_frown:

    Part of a larger trade, but BA TTD and a Bell's Wild One batch 2 for a Mimosa.

    My bottle says 51 of 450, but I believe 150 were held back, so 300 at release. Definitely 2 bottle liimit. Tasted like mimosa.

    It may be more rare as everyone offers their left - the market is flooded.

    I am one of the biggest HF backers you will find on this site, but Veritas 007 is the superior beer.

    Taste is irrelevant in beer trading.

    I got lucky I think. I got one for Fou Foune plus a couple of locals.

    The one guy I know who landed a bottle of Mimosa said the same thing.

    That is not only your perception. That's a steal.

    i know people go real hard after low bottle count HF barrel aged beers, but i don't get this one. it's a saison with freakin oranges. sure its good, but i wouldnt consider trading even a fou foune for one.

    Even though I've never had Mimosa, I'm pretty sure absolutely positive that Fou' is the better beer here.

    I agree, but I had four Fou's so I decided why the hell not. I actually even ended up trading the other two as well (drank one).

    I'm absolutely positive that Fou' gets brewed every year and Mimosa might never get made again. Fou' is excellent, but if you've had it before, trading it for a Mimosa is one hell of a deal.

    Fou Foune is over-rated. It's just a fizzy wheat beer with stupid apricots. Who even eats those anyways?
