    Melange 3 & Oude Tart from Chase2634
    BA Plead from Gratefulbeerhead
    Gratitude from TJBurgess

    All these guys are top-notch!

    Westy 12 from n2185, wrapped in foil and labeled "homebrewed rice lager". That was one of my first trades, and it was a pretty amazing surprise.

    I vaguely recall a thread in the old forum about someone sending Wooden Hell as an extra. Can't find it on the interwebs, though.

    Almost forgot, TurdFurgison send me a BA Plead the 5th. I had tried to trade for one of those forever and never landed a single one. Then out of nowhere it shows up as an extra.

    Ive had a few quality ones dropped on me.

    Madame Rose- Pmoney
    Heady Topper- Kzoobrew

    See most of my really awesome brews were gifts for either being a RS trustee or at a tasting for my birthday. Do those count?

    Cheers!

    Best extras I've received are the trading relationships I've built.

    Mike kills it every time! He actually has a stash of "extras" that some would call their cellar! Grumpyoldtroll is a hell of a great guy and trader!

    I've only done a few trades, but 1noa sent me a Dreadnaught and a Ninja v. Unicorn, both of which were super fresh and great.

    The BAer knows who he is and he has posted in this thread. I don't want to name him in this thread in fear that his inbox will be flooded. Thanks again my friend!

    Just received an '08 Black Albert and '10 Black Ops. Was a bigger trade, but those are some nice extras!

    See, that's the one drawback of these threads for me, especially as a newer (5x) trader: I don't want the people to think I'm trading with them because I read some thread about how awesome they are. Maybe I'm just overthinking it, though.

    Amazing stuff, anyway.

    I've done two trades so far and in the first I got a BCBS and the second I got a Westy Blonde. So far, so very, very good!

    I think my favorite extra ever was when Rempo and his wife invited me to their house for dinner when we were doing an IP trade on my way through Indy. That was pretty awesome.

    Yeah, that dude hit me with a Kentucky Monk as an extra for a very small (4pk for 1x 750ml) IP trade. I was floored by the generosity and thoughtfulness - he had done research to find out that I had sadly missed that release at Jackie O's. My pride was saved by the fact that I had a bunch of other decent beers in the car, one of which I extra'd him, and was able to prevent our beer kindness sword fight from being one-sided. He is a jerk.
