    Just was wondering if trading this for a hunahpu is worth it. I had someone offer me one for a Hunaha and I'm not sure if its a fair trade or not. Any opinions are appreciated.

    If it is something you'd like to drink more than the Huna you have, then yes.

    Me personally - I have the AB BBVD, and I wouldn't part with it for a Huna.

    If you want to try the AB BBVD, I'd definitely do that since there are only a few hundred bottles of the BBVD, and it's unlikely Voodoo will be putting another batch out in the near future. I agree with JM03 though; I personally wouldn't part with a bottle for a Huna, but mostly because I've been fortunate enough to have Huna in the past a few times.

    Aren't the Black Magick the tough bottles to get?

    How do the BBVD variants live up to the Black Magick variants.

    They're tougher to get because they're supposedly better. I have them all, but haven't had the black magick variants yet. The BBVDs are very good, and if the BMs are indeed much better, then I'm going to have some great times ahead of me.

    In terms of bottle count, I think they're about the same, but the BMs are 12 ounce and BBVDs are bombers.

    I've had most of them. BM are superior. Pappy BM is better than rare IMHO. The gran met rocks but seems to have gotten the short end of the stick in terms of the ISOs. All are really good. Our group was split if apple bbvd was better than pappy bbvd

    I thought Pappy BBVD was definitely better, but both better than Buffalo Trace. Can't go wrong with any of them. Also, not surprised to hear that about PVW BM. I really can't wait as my friends and I have 5 sets between us. 1st world problems, can't get everyone together to open them lol.

    I was lucky enough to get 2-3oz samples of the AB and PVW Black Magick. I'd love to try the BBVDs too. The PVWBM was one of the best beers I've ever tried.

    I think the BBVDs are only considered tougher because they were 1 per person. Where as people got 3 (2 of the Apple) Black Magicks.

    The Gran Met is also pretty fantastic, I think it is very underrated, but the BMs are better than the BBVDs but the BBVDs are still awesome.

    if I had Hunahpus I would quickly give them up for Black Magick and BBVD variants, but not the other way around.

    still not sure how people are saying Apple Brandy Gran Met is good... (bleh)

    It's got some heat on it, but it is tasty and I think it will only get better as the heat dies down a bit.
