Trade Value Thread (Q3 2018)

Now that Mornin Delight b5 has been released/tried and some trades have gone up, is MD b5 for Assassin 18 1:1 a reality? Or would MD need a x2 or other plus?

 

local group is having a stout share, the suggested value is around 1.25 VRs. i'd appreciate suggestions of any stouts that are around that value. seems like Assassin 18 might be, what else?

 

assassin '18 is right there at 1.25 VR's for sure.

 

The most recent batch of BAA is right there. Also, hidden springs DB fluffernutter would be a nice addition in the same range. Sons of darkness would be right around there as well, but probably the hardest to get of the 3 I’ve mentioned.

 

Sons of Darkness, Maple Madness, BAIGCCS, Voodoo IBS, and Double BA La Nada (best JWB stout outside of Bake imo) are all worth seeking out!

 

I'm in the same boat with the Maple Huna. It is an absolutely fantastic beer from an established brewery and it is fairly scarce. I have a bottle that I get crickets on with almost any trade request. It's unfortunate. I'll never get to try KBBS, which doesn't break my heart, but it's good to know that you think some of the elements of the Maple Huna are comparable. I can fill in the pieces of the viscosity

 

Should BA Affo be a good 1:1 for MDb5 or should there be a plus on either side?

 

I can see it 1:1 with the glassware included on the MDb5 side.

 

Personally, I think MD should be adding. Someone mentioned MD @ 1.25VRU, but that seems so crazy high to me. That's highest since B2. There's so much of it, I just can't see that. If there's a bunch of completed trades showing this, then I'll accept it. Until then, I'm still feeling that MD should be between 0.5 and 1.0 VRU.

BA Affo is around 1-1.25 VRU. So, IMO I think the MD side needs to add a plus for sure.

You can usually buy the glasswear online. Haven't checked this year, but I would check and see if you can get it online before trading for it.

 

500 instock according to their online store

 

What does it take to pull ADWTD DO? I would like to trade an AC IGCCS, but not sure what/if I would need to add.

 

It is fairly established in the early going with the SET being 1.25 VR, not a single bottle. IA single bottle is more along the lines of Prop '17+

 

Rough thoughts on Henna b3 value relative to MD b5?

 

2:1 Md:Assassin 18

 

1:1 probably right now. Maybe an add on Mdb5

 

Please note KBBS is a Bourbon barrel stout with maple and coffee added, which is a very different beer than Maple BA Huna.

With that being said, dbhb2 definitely made any ccb take a hit. Additionally, the fact they are pumping out so much BA beers also hurts any value as well. Not that I hate it.

 

I have a friend that has recently started getting into BA and regular stouts and has the following bottles of liquor to trade. I have no idea what these would trade for so I'm looking for some sort of feedback. I know the standard for beer is VR units, so could anyone help me understand what these would be worth in VR units? My guess for the Woodford would not be much as you can get that on a store shelf but the rest of them, I'm clueless. Thanks for you help.

Woodford Reserve
Macallan 12yr
Macallan Gold Double Cask
Old Forester Statesman

 

I can tell you the Macallan 12yr you can get any day of the week at most stores, and retails for about $57+tax at Sam's.

If you want to barter a trade, I'd love to trade some stouts for it. Maybe the Gold Double Cask as well.
