    So I just looked up this beer and there are no wants/gots listed? This is the first time I have seen this and I know they used to be there because there was 1 got. The BA didn't actually have it though as it had been traded and not updated. Anyways, does anyone know why they aren't there?

    I think it has to do with the retired status. You can't rate it either.

    Yeah, but lots of beers are retired and have wants/gots. Are they saying there aren't anymore? I'm 100% certain that isn't the case unless somebody broke into my office and drank the one I have this weekend. I was just hoping to land one more before going on a trading hiatus for a while.

    Take a look at Backpocket. Same situation. All of the beers are retired, even though several are still produced. I suspect heavy handed moderation, and not enough questions being asked.

    Not the case for individual retired beers but if the entire brewery has closed/gone out of business than they are no longer available for review. Not sure about wants/gots.

    I assume the one review since 2006, and that one being over a year old, had something to do with it.

    But it had a quick rating from 2013 and it was listed on the 2012 white whale list around 130 or something? I assume there must be some interest other than just me for it to show up on the list.
