    Really want a bottle or two of this but have absolutely no idea what to expect to give up for it. Don't want to put up a trade and get blasted for being off. I haven't seen many on the trade forum to get an idea. Any help would be appreciated.

    $15, 6-bottle limit and I think they made a lot (one way or another it was available for a long time). All HF demands a bit of a premium or a good trading relationship, but I wouldn't expect this one to be dramatically over $4$ if you've got something interesting and limited to offer.

    Best I've got would be Prairie Noir and variants.

    fwiw, being available for a long time in January/February is a different ballgame than most other times of years. Winter travel makes it tough.

    2-3 bomb/noir/variants should get it done

    Daybreak is a fantastic beer. Especially as it warms. Good luck!

    This. Probably means quite a few people have 6+ of this beer, so getting 2 shouldn't be out of the question. I'd expect to go over a bit on $4$ unless you're also offering a unique, brewery-only release in return. So for Noir/Bomb, which is not that, I'd go at least 3:1 for each Daybreak you want.

    I've got a couple of BBPt5th I could let go of. You think that would help my cause?

    it certainly can't hurt. I mean, speaking from the perspective of someone who doesn't have any Daybreak, of course.

    but if I did, and I couldn't get Bomb/Noir/BB Plead, I don't see why those beers in combo, at slightly over $4$ quantity, wouldn't make for a fair trade. Then again I'm obsessed with Bomb, so... good luck though!

    As one who bought a full allotment of 6 on my last trip to HFS & already drank 3 because it's delicious and hooked other people up with the other 3 (so I have none left and no skin in the game): you'll have to trade something similar, $4$ brewery-only. You're probably looking at 3, maybe 4 bottles of Prairie Noir+variants for each bottle of Daybreak.

    This is only my opinion and it really doesn't mean much, so you might as well put up an ISO:FT post for what you're willing to do and see if there's someone out there who's willing to hook you up.
