    Would a Tiramisu go 1:1 with a FOb3, or do I need a small plus?

    I think tiramisu would need a small plus. Maybe a couple cans of trillium.

    Not enough, Magnums are somewhat of a novelty and will not trade for 3 more sought after bottles.

    Bourbon for beer question. Could the new EH Taylor Four Grain pull 2 FF, or 1 Maman and 1 FF

    The guidelines for this are the following:
    1. Under no circumstances should cash value, offers to exchange cash for beer, offers to exchange beer for cash, offers to exchange cash for prime grade A sirloin or really anything involving cash at all be mentioned. This will lock the thread immediately and you will be shamed. If you have to use a reference, I would recommend the gold standard of RVRU (relative vanilla rye units)
    2. Don't be vague. No one really knows if you're ISO or FT. No beer has a singular value, so asking "what can I get with X?" will result with a million answers. "What does it take to land Y?" Again please help give us an idea of what you have FT or where about you're at to give an idea of locals, etc.
    3. The purpose of this thread is to help users out and introduce some dialogue and conversation into the merits of a particular proposed trade. It is meant to help users new and old and be a bit more dynamic than the "completed trades" section.
    4. Have fun with this!

    EOC only has one batch. The JK batch just wasn't able to be sold right away. Seems about right, maybe high on the Angry Chair side a little but not much.

    Same batch just was hung-up on realease in Texas due to State liquor laws which resulted in a label change that has the Jester King mentions on the original label blacked out

    So I’m hunting for some limited bottles. I have posted a few times trying to anchor with a bigger bottle. And only received crickets. Am I that off?
    FT: IWAAD b1+ BA IGCCS b2+

    ISO: (in order of preference)
    SR71
    Assassin 13
    HJ 16
    Any Derivation but 4
    Maman 15
    Assassin 14

    Was size plus am I looking at? I thought IWAAD b1 would be close to Assassin 13 and HJ 16. Has IWAAD b1 value lowered due to a second batch? Any help would be appreciated.
    Cheers!

    I don't think your offer is off at all. I think those ISO are so rare to find these days that it's not even just the right set of eyes seeing them but more if there is anyone with those bottles that's active on Beer Advocate trading forums at all. I don't think adding would even help. I'd just keep posting that same offer you have from time to time.

    I agree. I think that your chasing ghosts - and that's the issue.

    You may have more luck putting a the ones your are most ISO for in the title, or simple labeling your post "ISO: Assassin 13, Maman 14, ..." and putting them on in your title, with no FT. That will more likely draw in someone that has one, whereas "FT IWAAD B1, list, ISO: List" is going to draw in those that are most curious and those most interested in your FT.

    You have a matching issue, and I definitely agree to keep posting.

    You may also want to say (if this is true) something like: If you have one of these, PLEASE shoot me a message. Extremely motivated to work this out." Or something else that suggests you aren't just ISO, and offering a fair trade, but that you might and/or are willing to go over to get them.

    Best of luck!

    I was hoping there was another way. I’m not going to get involved with the shitlords online selling beer. I’ll gladly drink my bottles instead of give them my $. Sad that beer has come to this. My buddy just had to go this route for an Assassin 14.

    Was honestly wondering if IWAAD b1 value had dropped and I wasn’t aware.

    TBH, I think the value of a B1 compared to B2 varies a TON, as does demand.

    I expect something like B1 Of SP's BBT to hold value a little better than something like IWAAD B1, since it's an adjunct stout, and is a bit niche comparatively to a straight BA stout. Similarly, TG stout vintages have draws for both verticals AND "TG stout shares." I've never seen with any type of frequently that analogue for JWB, but you see it constantly for SP (also, BBT is one of the few BA stouts that is pseudo easy to come by).

    I am sure the value is there, but demand is probably lower. Unless B2 is aweful by comparison to B1, you're looking for a pretty specific buyer.
