Message tderoeck P beers 14777 º places 247 º 02:10 Wed 6/25/2014 Hey Walter, I’m not judging you because you want these, I can understand. But chances are pretty small to find any of them (well, you’ve extended the list now, so there’s a bigger chance of actual trades happening). Also, not saying that the trade would be not fair, but it would be very unlikely for them to happen. And it seems (not your post, but a few posts lately) that if people cannot get the huge whalez, that they don’t want to bother at all. Where as I think, well, if you have the spare room in your luggage, and there’s no huge whale trades happening, you might as well use that spare room to trade for some other things, maybe bring to a tasting, etc... I know most of the Belgian crew has very interesting things in their cellar, which I’m pretty sure are not available in Canada either. I don’t understand the shipping remark though. You’re just coming to Belgium with bottles in your luggage, right? Not shipping stuff? Maybe I misunderstood. Anyway, I could help you with one bottle of the extended ISO list. I’ll pm you.

Also: Dylan will probably not make it to the RB meeting, I thought...

Message Lurkaholic 04:38 Fri 6/27/2014 If you’re making it to Grote doorst as part of your trip (and if you aren’t, you’re seriously missing out), you’ll be able to buy Hommage b1 and framboos for 45 and 75 euro, on site consumption only, if that’s of interest. They also have ’03 OGV in both formats for 18 and 32 euro each (a steal, and delicious!). But I’m guessing you’re more looking to take things home than just open... And I’m afraid I have no way to help with that! Good luck.
