What're the best beer(s) you've come by via trade?

Beer Swapping by SLOWRUNNER77

A recent tradapalooza had me thinkin. There were two that immediately came to mind, but when I pulled it the ratings, I realized I've been able to try many of my favorites(some of which I've had a few times since) due to the generosity and good taste of others. The best part? I think there's at least one ELITE beer from everyone I've traded with! These brews are ALL in my top 1%... Chef Chad - Great Divide Espresso Yeti Blue Lou - Bells Expedition Stout Thomassova - Mikkeller Beer Geek Brunch Weasel Pfoxyjohn (2-3 times) & Beerhunter - New Glarus Belgian Red Kinger - Great Lakes Barrel Aged Blackout Stout You guys are awesome. Some of these have made their way into at least a seasonal rotation, and some (like New Glarus) are more like standing orders. Many thanks!!!

Too many to mention![:p] Blessed to receive World Class beers from many of the truly gracious BPs that I have had the privilege to trade with over the last few years. [:)]

Yep. I'm not much of a trader these days, but I look back fondly on the generosity of people in the beer world.
