    Hey all,

    I opened a Pugachev's Cobra 2012 with some friends yesterday, and it was pretty stellar stuff. How I like my monster stouts: on the roasty side, not too sweet.

    I got it as part of a bigger trade and really wouldn't know what they take to get. Also trying to get a Pugachev Royale, and I'd like to know what to offer up for it without looking like a grade A tit.

    I'm in Belgium, so probably best to think in those terms.

    Any help is very much appreciated.

    Cheers,
    - D.

    I was trying to get one with a Fou Foune 2010, 2011, 2012 or 2013. Got some looks but nothing ever worked out.

    I think it was really low bottle count, one of the "usual suspects" like Hommage would probably bring it out, maybe get you one + something else, depending on the trader...

    I have not had any luck offering Hommage or 50N, and that's a stateside trade. So to convince someone to go international, probably more than those.

    Thank God I was informed in time it was only a small bottle. Looks pretty cool, but I'll try to "stumble" upon it more than actually looking for it. I try to cut down on whale chasing :slight_smile:

    Super agree, easily one of the better stouts I tried in 2013.

    No wonder my IP thread post only has one view lol . I traded my Pugachevs Cobra for Marshal Zhukov fairly easy to get in the IE area. And they keep making more every year so maybe you'll have a better chance at landing regular PC.

    Royale is super under rated, top tier stout for sure.
