    Don't have a ton of info on this one. Anyone traded for it or looking to trade? What's it taking.

    Agreed. I heard it's caramel forward, sweet malt, hot bourbon, and even tempered but present hop presence. Overall consensus was good but not great. This is all hearsay, i havent tried it but would like to.

    Fireside Chat was really tasty. It was well-balanced, had a little hop bite, but I didn't get a ton of booziness honestly. We opened a year-old batch two Hi-Fi Rye that morning, and I believe the group consensus is that fresh Fireside was equally as tasty as the Hi-Fi and definitely better fresh.

    What was the bottle count on Fireside Chat again? I want to say it was under 700.

    From their blog:

    There will be a 6 bottle limit. $15 dollars/bottle. Cash only. The first 110 people will be guaranteed the limit.

    I need to track down a bottle of this for an international trading buddy. Does anyone know what this has traded for recently?

    I can see from the other posts in this thread that it was < 700 bottles.

    Would something like HOTD Matt/Michael work?

    Or if anyone is an eclipse fan, I would trade 3 bottles of 2010/2011 Eclipse for a bottle if there's interest there.

    Just trying to figure out where to start my ISO.

    Cheers,
    Chad

    I'd say that you'd get close to 110 people sending you a message if you offer up a Matt. Probably the same number of people would respond if you offered up 3 bottles of eclipse.
