    this x 1000

    Unfortunately those running this site don’t give a F&$@% if trading is completely eliminated on here. They want BA to be a site for beer reviews only. This is well documented in their posts and reply’s

    God forbid you offer bourbon for a beer you’ve been dying to try.... but thank goodness this “BEER ONLY” site still allows forums like “what weed are you smoking now?” The hypocrisy is second to none

    Don't forget the "What Bourbon Are You Drinking Now" thread.

    As someone who doesn't review beers on this site and very rarely participates in the "discussion based" forums, I have very little use for this site outside of trading.

    So I've always wanted to try Fremont B4K and I guess now B5K too. Where is a can if VSOJ at with these?

    Also, @Bhubbard34 , LOL at the WWAYSN reference. Forgot about that thread. Wish we would've recalled that solid point before the other thread was locked...

    And to be clear, I'm not asking about 1:2 here. I guess my question is do I have a little way to go, a long way to go, somewhere in the middle?

    I'd say a little way to go, just to make up for volume or cost. A couple extra Deep Woods I'd think.

    Kinda what I was thinking. Plenty of ammo there. Might have to take a swing here...

    You won't be disappointed, easily one of the best BA Barleywines released each year. Don't sleep on past vintages either, B3K is drinking phenomenally right now.

    At this point in the game hops should be trading can for can or $4$ but then again this is BA so who knows anymore. If its still available in their webstore I would seek out a proxy.

    I'm sitting in a store here in pdx that has a whole shelf of B5K. If you want a bottle or two, shoot me a BM. I only do $4$ trades, so keep that in mind (I won't let you over pay for it, is what I mean by that). Bottles of B5K are $30 a pop here in pdx.

    I don't have any particular interest in VSOJ, but I'm certainly not adverse to trying some. Otherwise, I'd be interested in any local BA stouts you have ready access to. I should add that BA beers from Central Waters are always welcome (I'm assuming you probably have ready access to CW stuff). But don't put yourself out trying to obtain something special to trade for B5K. It's not necessary.

    Grab a couple! How's a bottle of CW XXIII Brandy Barrel and a Rye Black Gold sound? Lots of other CW options to talk.

    Sounds good to me. I've had the regular black gold and thought it excellent. Would love to try the rye version. Does it come in bomber format?

    Don't know anything about CW XXIII, but I'm sure it will be excellent. Does it also come in bomber format?

    (The last time I traded for CW ba beers, many were packaged in 12 ounce bottles).

    Have your two bottles on my table.

    I’ll browse through my stuff and hopefully I have something nice to offer you. I’ve never had a Fremont beer before.

    OK. I think that's most unfortunate (never having had a Fremont beer before).

    Awesome! Yep, both bombers. I've got several other options here to consider, and will make you whole on your cost for sure. Gonna message you so this thread can stay on topic. Also, you can browse this list too.

    Sounds good.

    Looked over your offer list, and to be honest, most of those beers... I'm not familiar with them. So just send me whatever else will make up the dollar cost, if the CW beers are under $60. I trust you to send me something good, assuming that's required to make up the cost differential.
