    It is a 5:3 or a 6:3+literally 2 cans. In my mind it read quite easily but that never seems to convey (according to the Mrs).

    Do you think AdF is out of reach here with this offer?

    I had the first two batches of p4p. Huge differences. That's why I bought the second batch. I drank them fresh both times , so I can't comment how it holds up afrer weeks or so.

    If I wasn't overloaded with ipas, I'd get this 3rd batch.

    To be honest, I didn't think I was going to care for it.

    It's definitely pricey, but it's a few bucks more expensive than typical special releases. I wouldn't spend 7 a can forever, but on occasions totally. In addition, I don't have to drive far away to acquire it.

    Really want to land an ETL for a special occasion.
    Seems like it’s getting harder to get. What is a realistic secondary value? Can I do it with multiple mid level bottles...(Fuzzy, Atrial, etc) or do I really need a solid stout anchor or something like that? What about trading up with a bourbon anchor like OWA or Yama 12? See people post iso etl a lot, but no idea if they’re closing or not.
    Thanks

    I think that’s definitely the snag.

    I don't know why Elmer is so hyped on this site in particular, really seems like half the iso whiskey is for Elmer. I feel like you're always gonna have better odds trading whiskey for whiskey - Yama 12 is a pricey bottle, cost is almost Elmer secondary - I think someone would take you up on that

    You would think, but I posted it and didn’t get a single reply

    I know the feeling. I have what I think is a decent list of stuff for trade, and really am just kinda looking for any offers that might work out. But I get surprisingly few messages/offers. I just want to haggle damnit!

    Outside of the beltway, Yama 12 sits on shelves. ETL on the other hand has people lined up before the store opens. $38 at VA ABC and a low $175 secondary. You may get some interest with the OWA plus some sours. I would buy a bottle of Blanton's or ECBP, both are better than ETL imo.

    I've never seen Yama 12 on the shelf for retail ~ $125, but definitely agree there are far far far better bottles than Elmer that are way more accessible. It's a great $40-50 bottle, hell maybe even upwards of $80-90, but anything over that and you're a fucking moron. Don't know why it trades at the level it does other than scarcity and hype

    Yama is on the shelf in PA state stores for $125....I’m starting to think I should forget about Elmer and target another bottle for celebratory purposes

    Does Fundamental Theorem need a plus for Meditatio or GoD b2?

    This one may require some Facebook digging, which I don't have, but has anyone seen the following two bottles trade in recent months (years?)?

    Barrel-aged Behemoth (Willet barrels) '17 by 3Floyds
    Barrel-aged Behemoth (Woodford barrels) '17 by 3Floyds.

    I was going to offer Pulling Nails #11 for both, but I'm just not sure if anyone even has the beers I'd be looking for (let alone the value).

    Could batch 2, 2014, A Deal with the Devil, get a Derivation? Specific blends that it would fall in line with value wise? Thanks.

    I did some looking on FB yesterday, and these two have not seemed to move much. I think you are there trade value wise (most posts I saw were selling the behemoths), but could be hindered if there are just not that many out in the wild.
