    Just wondering what it takes to land any of the following:
    Cuir 100% BBA
    Papier Rye whiskey
    Fruet
    Coton 100% BBA

    I have quantities of darkness, old stock ale cellar reserve, bcbbw, cwbbw, cwbbs, and steel toe before the dawn. Thanks for your feedback

    Papier Rye is next to impossible to land....I traded a CFH 13', Fantasia, BA Kopi Luwak SS, and something else that I can't remember, and I was lucky to find a trader interested. The Fruet shouldn't be that hard. The 100% Coton will be pretty tough to land. I traded my 100% Cuir for a BC Bramble and 22oz BC Coffee about a year ago.

    Hopefully this helps. Good luck.

    The Bruery did a stress test sale of their web site last fall, prior to the BT release. They had the following available:

    Papier - 24 bottles - $99
    Coton - 120 bottles - $24
    Cuir - 120 bottles - $24

    I dunno if those are the variants you're after, tho - the Coton I have on hand is "75% Ale, 25% Ale aged in Bourbon barrels"

    Coton is currently available at their tasting room for a "buy the bottle and drink it here" price of $70.

    There is nothing in your list which will get you close to any of the BA Papier variants. 100% BA Coton might be a remote possibility, depending on what kind of quantities you're thinking of offering.

    100% Cuir could happen, and Fruet would certainly be the easiest of the group.

    Some notes worth keeping in mind as you hunt for the first few Bruery Anniversary Ale variants:
    • There were less than 300 bottles of each Papier variant available for purchase.
    • You could only buy a single bottle of each Papier variant.
    • 100% BA Coton and Cuir were only available to Reserve Society members. No distribution.
    • 3 bottle limit for BA Coton. Don't know the limit for BA Cuir.

    There you go. I was splitting a Reserve Society membership that year, and my friend got all the emails.

    Do you think a JD cake would go 1:1 with ba coton?

    For the record i traded a KH when it first came out for a 100% BA Coton, not sure whether that would fly now but you know instawalez bro

    More recently i traded a BCBVS for a 100% BA Coton... I may have traded a little much but i prefer the Coton to the BCBVS.

    A case of BCBBW probably wouldn't land you a Rye Whisky Papier. Just my $.02
