    I want a bottle of LiL and am wondering if this is fair. Still new to trading and don't want to put a lopsided offer out there... Any help is much appreciated.

    Edit: CR is 2013

    LIL was a little bit more limited that CR, but quality for quality it is a good trade. If I didnt have 2 bottles of CR i would think about this trade. Your porblem is going to be finding someone that is willing to give up a LIL PERIOD.

    Good luck

    Yes this is more than fair on your end no matter what the Florida dudes will say in here. If you post this in the correct forum it will get done in no time.

    "Will say" not "said". My point being, I think you already know.

    yeah, FL traders are dicks. Srs. holding everything hostage and jacking up ratings/reviews to win trades.

    Really? I must have the blinders on. With cigar city stuff a lot of it is a one off especially with their growler Tuesday releases which typically yield like 40-50 growlers I would imagine. Those are the only things I see go for ridiculous stuff. But people are obviously trading for them.

    I try to do a fair trade when I post. I have seen chocolate rain go for life is like pretty frequently. Life is like was so hard to get more than a couple people are holding into them for fair reason it's a great beer. With chocolate rain released every year I guess people think the rarity makes it equal. And you would be surprised at how much some shops charged for this beer. Prices ranged from 21.00-32.00 and people bought every single bottle. If
    I were to do this trade I would add something like a Zhukov to make up the difference in trade for trade to even out the $$$.

    Just my .02. In could be completely off base withbwhat others think. I have traded so much that about 1 out of every 5 trades are with new people. I definitely don't dick over my regular trades partners bc we constantly hook each other up.

    Most Florida traders I've gone with were awesome and not buttheads like a lot of others. Plus they love Bruery beers because most can't get them. You can probably get this one done op.

    I recently performed a double-blind, peer-reviewed scientific study and have found the following...

    52% of Florida traders are "awesome"
    40% are "dicks"
    8% are "inconclusive"

    For what it's worth, I recently traded a Bois Rye variant for Life is Like. However, the trader was so awesome that he didn't even specify what beer he wanted for Life Is Like -- it was my choice. I was debating between sending him the Bois variant or an infected Ebony & Oak. But just in case someone out there was doing a similar "awesome vs. dick" study for the entire state of California, I decided on the Bois.

    I was able to land 2x Life is Like for 1 Chocolate Rain. He forced me to add a Pliny though, so the $4$ would be close.

    And yet the rest of them are allegedly dicks, interesting paradox eh?

    Chalk it up to the heavy humidity, that alone would make anyone a surly beer hostage-taking mofo.

    Have traded with a few FL guys and they've all been awesome! One guy even sent me a Life is Like without me even asking for it. It had to break in the mail of course (only bust in 50+ boxes), but it's still the thought that counts.

    Enjoy!
