    I've always wanted to try this brew. I think the last one was made in 2011. Is that correct? I'm not sure how many bottles are out there, or what to even offer up for one. I'm thinking some combo of BCBS, BCBW, almanac sours or something like that. Is that off? I'd definitely change that up before I posted an ISO up if that's the case.

    Any help would be much appreciated!

    2011 sounds correct. I know it was not on the schedule for 2012, 2013 and 2014. I think you could easily get one with what you're offering. Except for the old 750 ml corked and caged DFH beers, their stuff doesn't trade well. And just my personal opinion, but Fort is not that good, but if you want to tick it, go for it!

    They'll probably bring it back sometime soon (within the next year or two, perhaps). I wouldn't be surprised if you saw it on the 2015 release calendar.

    2011 sounds about right. I think you are pretty close. Just list what you are willing to give up, I highly doubt anyone would say "BCBS.. no way, not enough, you need to be offering ASSASIN to land a Fort !!!" You might get lucky and find someone with multiple forts in their cellar.

    2008 & 2011 with 2011 having the lime green bottle cap.
    Haven't seen any of them corked and caged?

    My wife loves fort, it is pretty tasty but definitely packs a punch. I think I have four bottles of 2011 but id have to double check. I had two bottles of 2008 but with all of the sediment that settled to the bottom half of it was a drain pour. I stocked up for her knowing they werent gonna brew it for a few years.

    That's awesome man. Let me know if you would be willing to part with one of the 2011 bottles. Cheers!
