I am looking to make my first trade. I am in Kansas so my distro is bad. Can O'Dell myrcenary, mountain standard,or 180 schilling pull any decent locals from areas its not avail?
Yeah, you can land some good shelf stuff with that for sure. My first ever trade also involved Odell.
Yeah man, Odell is solid, and there shouldn't be a shortage of reasonable traders out there (no matter how crazy the FT/ISO forum gets) that would totally swap good locals with you.
Thanks, I guess I will give it a try. I just didn't want to embarrass myself. But I see their distro is pretty small, and I'm not looking for whales, just something different
I wouldn't expect anything limited but you should be able to get some good shelf beers for sure Being from Kansas you should offer up some Free State as well!
I was planning on the free state as extras,I like ethos but its not rated all that well. Thanks for everyone's help. If I could score jai alai I'd be thrilled!
I'm sure you'd be able to secure 3 Floyds, Revolution, Half Acre, Solemn Oath, and other locals from my neck of the woods, as well. Odell's has a solid line up that others would gladly seek; the beers you've mentioned and Lugene, too. Absolutely one of the best chocolate milk stouts out there.
I would think Jai Alai with NO problem. I'd do it in a heart beat but i'm not trading now. Might look into some New England Brewing Company to name another.
You should be able to land things like, straight up $4$ with Odell (Myrcenary and IPA are most desirable): - CCB Jai Alai and other good shelfs out of FL - Fat Head Headhunter, Brew Kettle White Rajah and other shelfs out of FL - Kane 077XX, Carton Boat, Victory Dirt Wolf (not fresh right now though), Neshaminy Shape of Hops to Come and other good IPA out of the PA/NJ area - Listen to @creepinjeeper for stuff in IL - Alpine, Modern Time, other San Diego shelfs out in CA ...those are just some examples. No one can ever embarrass themselves looking to trade shelf beers for shelf beers. Also, look for Goose Island Bourbon County being released on Black Friday (not sure when/where in Kansas). You can pull in harder to get stuff, especially if you get some extra variants to trade. Good luck!
Thanks all! You have been very helpful. Surprisingly I am working on some pliney and fff right now. Haven't heard from flat yet. Jai alai would be great. Cheers!
