Man, I had to walk away from craft beer for the last few months, but reading this thread is pulling me back in. Stopped at my local spot last night (Wine Spot in Cleveland Hts.) and they had a Black Note Stout sitting on the counter. Was never able to track these down in past years, but looks like a bunch hit the stores around here. Grabbed that, a 120 Minute IPA and World Wide Stout, so I've got a good amount of big beers to tackle this weekend.
In terms of trading, I've only done 4-5 in BeerAdvocate in the past. My best route was finding someone on the west coast that had wants of mine (Pliny, Russian River, etc.). I'd send a MidWest starter pack and they'd do the same. Good way to build a relationship with the trader and you could go from there.
I know I've been resisting, but I'm sure I'll end up in line on Black Friday for BCBS.
Kevinoc0 on Untappd btw.
