I am new here-actually joined trying to find something for my son. He is into beer tasting parties, and I would like to surprise him with some Ginder Ale...but Icant find anyone who has any or can get any. How do I go about this? Do I try and TRADE something if anyone has some? It looks like I cant just offer to BUY the beer, am I wrong? I am not into beer so dont know WHAT to trade. Any help on how to go about this would be appreciated. Thanks!
From the looks of the beer's profile, there are only 5 reviews ranging many years, so it will probably be quite difficult to track down. Buying beer is not allowed on BA, so you would have to try and trade for it. Good luck in your hunt!
Do I post my request in the ISO section? I guess the rarity of the beer determines what the person wants for it? I read you cannot BUY the beer, but are trades only for beer? Sorry for all the questions, but dont want to violate any rules here....

This looks very tough to find. According to the profile there is only one person who has it listed on their "gots" meaning only one person is admitting to have it. 3 out of the 4 reviews are all from people in Europe which leads me to believe it may not have ever even been available in the U.S. Good luck, unfortunately I think you're going to need it. Perhaps find other beers he may want that are more readily available in the U.S? http://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/169/20155/
He actually never asked for it. It is a name thing... thought I might be able to surprise him and his friends. I have an empty bottle of one my father got MANY years ago. I guess it cant hurt to at least put it in the ISO section and try.. THanks
