    That's one of the ones we opened at the Houston share (mostly guys from outside this BIF), along with SecretFace (a stout) ... both were enjoyed thoroughly by the group, I was happy to have brought them down.

    or me... I might not be there in the immediate future, but I'd love to do a trade with you after you crushed my 444th box so hard!

    Only on this site would "12 days old and still drinking fantastic" even be a thing (as it implies at 12 days old, maybe it wouldn't) :slight_smile:

    Just dropped off the last packages I'll be shipping from MA. A nice little box for @Brewzma and a keg of BCBS #gopickitupformebro for someone in South Dakota. Time for a goodbye party!

    don't know he sent me a label. I know Cost of packing supplies was $50 which I was reimbursed. Probably would have been more of I didn't have a ton of packing supplies/comforter/mattress pad I was about to get rid of.

    $299.99 plus $40 keg deposit for a 1/6.


    2 months ago I did it for someone else except the sent me a pallet freight because they bought 4 kegs and had me do an ip trade for 1 of them to get a keg of BCBBW

    Yeah--I do an occasional growler swap, he's up there trading kegs.
    Whole different league. If my wife ever gives me crap about beer trading,
    I can tell her it could be worse.

    Shiiiiiiiiiiiiit man. That is crazy.

    If I had to ship a keg, I'd maybe try Greyhound shipping. Or make friends with a truck driver?

    How much does the keg weigh?

    Jesus god.... How does one even acquire a keg of something I can only get my hands on the occasional 4 pack of???

    It's funny the math that is going on in my head trying to figure out how to get a keg from @Dicers. Nevermind the fact that I have no kegerator.

    Decided to hold onto @ThreeFishes growler until today. Opened it for our going away party. Jim your method worked perfectly! Great carbonation no leaks and is delicious!

    even one of our friends who is new to beer thinks it delicious!

    Cracked open those crowlers that @ThreeFishes sent for the 444th BIF. That peach spices saison was exceptional Jim. Split that one with my wife and father they both loved it. Thanks a ton for that one.
