    What's it gonna take? Any have experience trading for it or know what's fetching? Thought I put I up a good ISO/FT. Guess not :slight_frown:

    I bet if you only put the Cantillon 375 ml gueuze in the ft you'll have a much better shot at a bottle. That list is too big and Bomb seems to fly off the shelves much quicker than the other ones.

    Bumping this to ask what this has traded for. Anyone been involved with a trade with one?

    I did a rare dos and a Ccb homefront ipa for a reg mexi cake and bomb but that was with someone I traded with before fwiw.

    I have no idea if it got more distribution in Oklahoma, but the distro to other states was really limited -- my local shop only got a case (12-pack, I think), and they had a one-bottle limit and still sold out in under an hour. I also think they were one of only five or six account in Northern California to get any.

    My best guess is you'll have to give up a lot to get it from a non-Oklahoman, as very few got multiples. You'll probably still need to offer a lot to an Oklahoman, but there are just likely to be more who got more than a bottle.

    Gotcha. What was the bottle count on it again? I was thinking an equal $ amount of KBS would be reasonable, but I obviously could be wrong.

    According to their Facebook, there were 320 cases, and only 60 of those went out of the state. I don't believe there has been a second batch, but that suggests there were somewhere around 3000-6000 bottles (depending on if the cases were 12s or 24s) floating around Oklahoma at release.

    Honestly, I wish I'd hung onto mine to trade. It was good and quite well-made, but the pepper came across as a bit too vegetal to me, which isn't my favorite flavor. I think regular Huna is better.

    2nd batch of bomb, supposedly all being sent out of state. Pulled this from their FB page. Hopefully some other states get a chance to try this outstanding beer!

    I've traded twice for some Bomb. First trade I did a Cantillon Classic 375, 1:1. And in another I traded a Dark Lord '11 for 2 bottles of Bomb. Good luck, OP.

    I gave a 750 loon for 2. Pretty sure it was a classic, might have been a vig or st lam.
