    Hey guys,
    I'm trying to set up a trade for seven Russian River sours. I want three Supplications, two Temptations, and 2 Consecrations. What is the dollar value for those beers? I want to keep it $4$ with Heady Topper and Lawsons. I'm not looking for new partners; I'm just trying to figure out the logistics and value of the beer.

    They run $11-$13, depending where you get them. So 7 of them would be ~$80-$90 worth.

    In the Philly market they run about $14 to $19.

    they usually charge $13 at the brewery. i can occasionally find them for around $11 but pretty rare.

    They are $13 a pop here in LA/OC flat..plus tax which comes out to at least $14 each..if your getting 7 RR Sours (Which aren't east to get anyway) for HT and Lawsons..then man up and make the trade..your NOT getting ripped.

    I'd take that trade sometime this summer. How much HT would that get me?

    Where do you live where you find them for $11? They don't even sell them at the brewery that cheap..I've been to RR and in LA never seen them cheaper than $13.
    Let me know where I can get them for $11 so I can go.

    That's what I'm saying..here in LA to find 1 of each RR is hard enough but 3-2-2 is a scavanger hunt for RR sours. I better be getting at least a 16 of HT and at least 3 Double Sunshines..

    Pretty sure that's what they are at Bottle Barn. Actually, they might be $10 at Bottle Barn, that place is stupid cheap. Whole Foods around here are also pretty inexpensive, but I can't remember the prices exactly.

    No way Whole Foods is not $10-11cheap not here in LA/OC. The pricing on all Russian River products went up just last month.

    I plan on being generous with my return package. I recently tried the beers, fell in love with them, and want some for a large upcoming tasting. I just had no idea what they cost. I had to figure out how much to send. Thanks for the help!

    Most breweries... at least out here... sell their normal and none one off bottles above usual retail value so they don't undercut the local bottle shops.

    Check my location, I'm in the Bay Area. I have no idea what price they are down in LA, or in Philly, or on the moon. But around here that's how much they are.

    I agree to a point..I have seen bottles cheaper at stores than breweries..but back to my point..in Los Angeles and OC, if you find them cheaper than $13..LET ME KNOW! Never seen them cheaper than the brewery out here.

    I'm sayin' I'd take that trade. I just wanted to know how much HT costs to get a # of cans that would get. I can get the bottles @ the pub @12 and whole foods and bottle barn for 10 something.

    Do you mind telling us what you plan on sending? So we have an idea what to ask for.

    Heady Topper is $12 a 4 pack from the cannery.

    Yeah, I think pretty much everyone in RR's distribution area would. You'll probably find relatively few people who'll do a 4-pack of Heady for a RR sour, though.

    The shipping costs would be pretty awful for the person sending the HT.
