The Bruery Private Barrel

So I have my order coming in of Black Tuesday Private Barrel. Here is the write up on it. I was wondering what this might be able to trade for. I’m looking for Brew 2000 and the latest BCBS barleywine. There are only 25 bottles of this and I get the last barrel they were aged in.

This unique blend of Black Tuesday started its life in a host of different barrels in our cellar. Brewed over two years ago, we have aged this batch of Black Tuesday in 11-year Henry McKenna, 8-year EH Taylor, 7-year Evan Williams, 6-year Weller, Peerless Rye, California Brandy, and Garrison Brothers barrels, and we even threw in a Sherry cask. We blended all these barrels together for optimal flavor balance and complexities, then double barreled exclusively into these 5 gallon barrels from Reservoir Distillery.

Any insight on this would be appreciated. I’ve been out of the trade game for a while and want to get back into it. Cheers

 

I do not look at this as selling myself short. Its beer I want, mainly want it because my friends like barleywines and I am hosting a tasting for them.

 

I scored a brew 3000, 4000, 5000 and 6000 and was just looking to complete the set. I personally do not like barleywine style beers, but a lot of my friends do. I was going to do a barleywine tasting between christmas and new years, so I was looking to get it for that. I have a bunch of anchorage barleywines that I am going to open at this as well. Just trying to give my friends a little gift of beer for the holidays. Thank you for your 2cents, I am always open to hearing what people have to say and getting their thoughts. Cheers John

 

They separated it to the final 5 gallon barrel which yielded only 25 bottles per 5 gallon barrel. They are sending me the final barrel that the 25 bottles were aged in along with the bottles. I am not sure how many total bottles were made, but in what I am offering, there were only 25 from my batch.

 

You seem to be taking this like I am trying to rip someone off, that is not my intent. I am not sure as to the whole process of the Private barrel Black Tuesday and apologize if I spoke out of turn or didn't speak clearly. They did not tell us if all of the same barrels were used in the final barrel aging process. I am getting the 5 gallon barrel that held my beer before it was bottled. the 5 gallon that I am getting was big enough to make 25 bottles.

 

no need to apologize, I appreciate the feedback and comment. I have little information from them and just want to make sure I give the best possible information I can. I don’t think that my request was over the top for a Brew 2000 or 2 new BCBS barleywine. I’ll post and see what I can get, thanks again for your input. Cheers
