    YES... for sure. Unfortunately there are even bigger d-bags willing to pay for them.

    I have extras of every one escort don gavino and I'm not a huge fan of sours. I'm going to wait until next week and see what my connections can get but I have loved everything goose island has done and I'll still have 1 of each catador beers if I trade them away not

    I think people need to let all the trade hype cool down a bit... I'd want to see how much is actually available in Chicago first.

    Not sure why or how much, but I do know distributors sent out a few cases of CR to some Chicago stores, as late as a couple months ago. I grabbed one of those bottles, and just yesterday in had a friend get a bottle in Wicker Park while searching for variants. Who knows where that came from

    for $50?

    last year a few stores (one being Foremost) picked up some 2009 BCBS in bombers.
    i know some folks that work in the trade and i've always seen surprise shipments arrive. heck, this summer i picked up 2010 bombers of the sisters.

    anyway they usually get these 'surprise' shipments whenever the rep can't come up with a promised shipment.
    "Hey, i can't get you the 2 promised cases of Proprietor but to make it up, how about a half case of 2009 BCBS?"

    i was supposed to get some prarie bomb but it never arrived, they did get another trinket - i ended up with Bo and Luke which was just as nice.

    Not sure what my friend paid yesterday for his but I know he wouldn't have paid anything close to $50. I believe I paid $25

    wow i swear i saw that someone paid 50 dollars for a bottle of cherry rye in this thread unless it was edited. which is why i specifically said $50. (or another BCBS thread) anyway, nice find.

    Are any of these trades getting done? All
    I see are huge bottles being wanted and offered up but nobody is saying they are closed. Just curious. I hope the hype dies down a little bit by this time next week!

    It almost always does. I remember the insanity that flooded the forums when Cherry Rye first hit the scene.

    I'm interested to see how these are gonna trade...i would love to land a couple and feel like a 2013 Grey Monday is definitely a fair trade...but I think there will be some massive #whalezbro give me everything you've got for 1 bottle of Proprietors

    Offered a 2013 Fou Foune for a Proprietor and a coffee. Trade should be completed after the release today. I got a number of responses on that one.

    BCBS variants get crazier every year. I'm just going to wait until all the hype dies down before trying to trade for one. I still remember when Cherry Rye was super limited and demanded walezbro, but then a huge amount just plopped into NY and all the hoarders from the first wave of cried out in pain and cried as the trade value for Cherry Rye plummeted.

    I'm just glad that I was able to get bottles of regular BCBS in my area for the first time.
