    I was wondering if I could get some input on a trade valuation before I post up a proposal. I am looking to trade a 3 pack of GI bombers (Lolita, Madame Rose, Juliet) all 2012 vintages, could expand with a pepe nero and matilda from 2012 as well, but those aren't as hard to find.

    Do you think these would go 1:1 with a combination of the following? If not, what ratios do you think these would go for.

    Bruery Stouts GM, BT, MW, etc
    Cake and variants
    BA biscotti break
    Hunna and variants
    BA Sump
    Darkness
    Dark lord and variants
    Pretty much any Cantillon
    Most any Side Project
    Cable car
    DDG
    NG wild peach
    Jester king sours
    Upland sours


    I'm relatively new to trading on here and just don't wanna look like a prick posting up a out of line trade.

    Thanks for any input

    Honestly, the bombers you're trading aren't really highly desired as they're made each year in huge quantities with a large distribution footprint. I suspect there will not be much interest in "vintages" of those beers, especially not for some of the stuff you're looking for in return. In fact, I'd say you're reaching way too high with 90% of your ISO list. Your FT beers will probably trade for $4$ shelf beer.

    Welcome to trading.

    As a rule, the Sisters just don't really trade for anything other than $4$ shelf beers. I've never seen a post that included them in its ISO.

    Shane is spot on (James too). You're only a few weeks from the Bourbon County release. Put some money aside and prepare your chasing shoes. Load up as much as you can, especially of variants, you'll be able to knock a lot of your ISO off easily.

    I'd trade DL for Madame Rose all day long. MR is a much better beer.

    Unfortunately thats what it has become. The goose sisters are some of my favorite beers, i have a large stash of them and figured it might be worth it to post some up to see if i could get some harder to get beers that i have been wanting to try. BTW, the 2010 juliet and MR i had recently were up there with some of the best sour beers i have ever had.
