    I'm not sure of the bottle count but this is one of my favorites. I want 4-6 bottles to last me through a year. What are they trading for and those of you who have any what are you looking for?

    Cheers!

    I sent out 6 CAftW for a box of Hill Farmstead beers $4$ if that helps

    This is exactly what I was going to post when I saw this thread. What a magnificent beer, wish I had some.

    Shouldn't be too hard to get I think. 100 cases at the release and $14 a bottle. Tasty brewery only releases should get the job done!

    So it's a brewery only release? I know Bourbon Fred had some distro...

    Bourbon Fred 2011 might have (or someone might have bought several cases and sold it), but 2012 did not.

    And to the best of my knowledge, Cherry Adam has never hit distribution, though I know one person bought 8 cases of 2011 for his restaurant in Seattle.

    Well, I guess I assumed he got them from a distributor, but he could have got the case somewhere else. The mark up wasn't bad and he get's all sorts of awesome releases. I'm sure most on here know the shop I'm referring to.

    Not trading any of mine, but if I was to, I'd be more than happy to do it $4$ for something that I was interested in. I'm not into the rarity/hype game, so as long as you had something I was looking for, and were willing to offer it, that's all it'd take.

    Like a king henry and $25 worth of assorted beer? That's my best guess as to what you'd be ISO for it.

    I'm not interested in trading any if mine but I've seen plenty of them in the trade forum. Just offer something up and see what happens.

    No. You were offering your muling services for CAFTW. For 2 CAFTW or AFTW you were asking people to pay the cost of the beer, AND send you a KH or Fou Foune.

    You must've forgotten that part.

    As I explained in PM to you, that's not quite what happened. That was an act of goodwill, that rightly so, blew up in my face. My intention was to offer people an opportunity to get some limited release beers at cost without having to give up an arm and leg, which is a common expectation of recent posts in the ISO:FT forum. Unfortunately, the post was poorly worded, which led people to think that I was demanding top-tier beers in exchange for doing this. That was definitely not my intention. My fault, totally, and I take full responsibility for that.

    i strongly advise against any goandpickitupformebro favors for ba's. one, it used to be (still is?) against site policy, and two, the common expectation is that your time should be treated as worthless or close to it, for the privilege of getting other people their beer.

    doing good deeds in beer has a way of blowing up in your face.

    Back to OP, what are people trading their Cherry Adams for?

    Well-to be technical, I did it on facebook, so it wasn't on this site... :wink:

    And yes, lesson learned. Kind of. I'm happy to do it again, though. There are good people out there.
