    I got my hands on KtG, DL, BCBS, and Hunahpu. Any thoughts on what i should get next? I was new to the trading game but im hooked already.

    Get your hands on a bottle opener and drink them.

    Exactly. Collecting beer is all fine and good but you have to drink it. If you just collect them and don't drink them you can find much cheaper hobbies.

    I drink all the IPA's ive gotten and im saving the Big beers for the right day. But im looking to build them up first. My list is 3 Kates, 3 DL, 1 Hunah, 1(maybe 2) BCBS.

    Well in that case the best big beers I can think of that you don't have but should are Stone RIS and Abyss. If you think you've got a RIS collection going and don't have those two beers you don't have anything yet. Stone RIS should be easy to get most everywhere. the Abyss you'll have to trade for.

    My advice is go after some barleywines and BA barleywines. Stouts aren't the only big beers out there.

    if you get deschutes in your area, just wait for the next vintage later this year and buy it yourself. it's a good beer, but i do think it's a little over hyped and thus inflated in the trading game.
