Is this stuff really that rare? What’s the story here...anyone know the total bottle run?

70+ cases would suggest "not that rare", but try trading for one and the value is through the roof. Same thing with Isabelle...plenty to go around, but the value was inflated(and I actually did trade for some).
I suspect once bottles sit in a cellar for awhile it might be easier to snag one or two. Who knows?

There’s quite a bit of beer ransoming going on these days with anything that resembles a limited release. It’s a shame.

All I know is that I’d like a bottle or 2.

It is indeed a shame. If you’re going to "ransom" your beer off to the person that offers you the most stuff, you might as well just sell your beer on eBay; at least that way there is no pretense.

don’t forget the beer just got released yesterday. I am sure this wont be hard to come by once people settle down from the weekend and actually start talking about trading.

Someone made a gracious offer to hook me up today, it was cool as hell.

I am not sure how rare it is, but it seems to be highly sought after and this guy just came out and offered me one.

Thanks man, you know who you are, I just don’t want you to get bombarded by beermail.

I think I’m gonna throw mine in as extras in other trades.

I wish I could get some, but the trading price is too high currently.
