I like to try as many new and different things as possible -- when in doubt, send me something I haven't had before. Current favorite is stuff in the Barleywine/Wheatwine family, but I also love all types of stouts (especially BA) and porters. Hoppy stuff (except Mosaic) is always welcome, with the caveat that statistical analysis tells me I'm NOT a big fan of super hazy New England IPA's. The only things I usually don't like are wheat beers and really hot/spicy/peppery beers. I've also migrated away from sours/saisons, but I enjoy them once in a while.. I guess I basically like relatively boring stuff (coffee/chocolate/vanilla/hops)?

I'm trying to chase down beer from all the states and the only one I still need (and really want) is South Dakota.

Regarding swag, I always appreciate #properglassware to add to my collection and drink new stuff from. Brewery T shirts (large) are cool too.

Trades should all be logged, too many ninja boxes (in both directions) to keep track of...(well, I'm keeping track of them, but not listing them).
