ISO means in search of and FT means for trade.

That link was posted by a guy wanting a 3 liter bottle of Russian River Beatification. He offered up a keg of bcbs and a bottle of pappy van winkle 23 year.

Does this kind of ISO:FT happen very often?

Who wants to grab me a couple of bottles of RU55 and Boxer's Revenge this weekend?


I can probably make it happen. I'll be out there for my birthday Saturday. Shoot me an email when you get a chance (in my profile).

The 3L Beats offers have been entertaining to watch. However nothing compares to the crazy offers when HotD recently sold 12 bottles of Dave for a whopping $2,0000 each.

They only made it once, 20 years ago, and not very much. It sold for like $70 a bottle back then. It's a mega-alcoholic barley wine meant to age.

Petrol still has 512 WBADPP. Also picked up some Boxer's Revenge from D & Q. Plenty in stock when I left an hour ago.

I'd give up a lot for a 3L Beatification. That trade doesn't seem that crazy since it'll be done in person. Dollar value means little when you're talking about one offs like a 3L of the recent batch of beat.

I've had the pleasure of a pour from a 3L supplication. They are a crazy ass format. Great for aging beer. RR has also done 6L's before.

It is ice distilled Adam, which is their old ale. They only made it once back in the day. It currently occupies the #2 spot on the white whale list.

I have heard the same thing about large format bottles. Is there science/rationale behind why they age better? Slower decline in taste or different development of tastes?

A 3L BEAT?!?! Hell, I'm having a hard enough time getting one 375ml beat. I should've been more patient before I let my MvB and CdT go.

Larger volume allows for a slower and more uniform aging, plus a lower percentage of the beer is exposed to any oxygen in the headspace.

How rare is beatification? I've seen all the other sours here but never beatification.
NColoradoAG
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Beatification is brewery only. Not super rare. The last two batches have been 12000 bottles.

Thanks man. Actual birthday is on Sunday, but I'll be celebrating at JK on Saturday. Kind of hoping it rains so some of the neck beards are scared off... Should be a decent amount of us there. If anyone in this thread finds themselves in Austin Saturday you are more than welcome to join.

That sucks, bc it's the one my wife really wanted to try. I guess that means more Supplication for me.

enjoy JK guys. we're riding the MS150, otherwise I'd be out there to pick up more beer to trade.

i really wish JK was a quicker drive from North Austin, but then I guess I'd be out there all the time...and I'm already having a tough enough time cutting back my beer drinking.

Not necessarily applicable. A beer carbonated in the bottle will not only pressurize the beer, but also create a blanket of CO2 between the beer and oxygen, since C02 is heavier than air.

Many craft beers are naturally carbonated in the bottle, so this is a non-issue.

This is true, but when considering long term aging in this case oxygen will always be a factor.

Okay.. Here's my effort at a spreadsheet of San Francisco (and surrounding areas) breweries. Any that I'm missing??

And just like that parabola is gone from all the shelves here. But I was able to restock up on Pliny.
