    To be fair, I've had a legit bottle with a giant X on it. The label was mangled, and as such it wasn't supposed to be distributed and was given out to friends of the brewery, I assume with other "can't be distributed" mistakes. The guy I sampled it with likely wouldn't have sent it out, but if he did there shouldn't have been any suspicion.

    I don't know why that would happen here, but if the label was damaged (especially if it hit the UPC) I could see it being X'd but still be legit.

    Of course, with a weird cap it doesn't help the case any.

    Well having experienced it I just HAD to.
    Agree. If you have a bottle that you believe to be to be legit but would be concerning to someone else, you're obligated to tell them. Not disclosing that is some kind of move that only a jerk would make.

    Haha if he had M and was offering to send it first for a 6 pak of Bud Light I wouldn't do it.

    So yeah, he wouldn't trade with me again, because I put him on ignore and he cannot contact me.

    I wish he would get me off his page altogether, but I guess he thinks he did just fine and it was my fuckup. I bet he ends up with more on that wouldn't trade again list than on his completed trade list.

    Or, this is a longshot, maybe he will read alewatchers blog, maybe he will use seekabrew, maybe he will try to be a good trader. Like I said, a longshot.

    Soo we all agree he is a douche and can not be trusted, but the real question needs to be asked: how was his home brew? :stuck_out_tongue:

    The Belgian Saison with Sorachi Ace was enjoyed by my drain. It was a gusher, and that was its best quality. The others were worse.

    Wow someone found a different creative way to screw another ba out of beer. Just when you thought it couldn't get a y worse. This is worse than straight up just stealing it . Asshole.

    Shit, I just skimmed through this rather long, six month old thread for this?

    That was a terrible payoff. :slight_frown:

    Busy? You typed 7 words and a number, stretching it?

    The 5 minutes was reading through a 6 month old, 6 page thread expecting some kind of interesting update, not the typing of the response.

    Ya, I know.I only read the first 3 posts and skipped to the last one too. Just tired of guys ripping off guys for their beer and put in my .02. Accusing a guy of switching beers is absurd, it was the 1st I've seen that one.

    CJS is officially blacklisted in my book.

    If you get a bottle of CBS, and decide to sit on it, that's your bad
