Then, I had made on comment while drinking my last can from Treehouse, and @Joenap419 was quick to jump in and fill the void. Thank again Joe, I hope that new porch of yours was built well...
Next, @AyatollahGold showed some interest in a beer I was drinking, so I just said lets do a little open ended trade... My lack of current batch of Prairie ticks quickly got taken care of, with a few locals to boot. Thanks again Dayton!
A handful of us Newbies got together before Wakefest a few weeks ago for a little share, dubbed CharlieFest. @CBrodbeck @HeartofMiami @maljay26 @Eziel @Greeny87 @Satch44 and I, along with Jack from Tripping Animals, put down a couple bottles. Thanks again for hosting Charlie, and great seeing everyone again as usual!
I had this doozie waiting for me when I returned from Florida. I knew @Franfab was up to something when he had asked if my Revolution ticks were current, but that was a long time ago... Seems as though he was stocking up to fill up one hell of a box! Thanks again Frank! But if that wasn't enough, Frank also came through on a last minute GPIUFMB... Which quickly turned into a "beer karma" situation. Looks like I'll need to start tucking some beer aside to round out a box for you Frank!
Last week I came home to an unexpected thank you box from @Tifore It seems as though Tyler thought I needed a little Crooked Pecker in my life, along with a couple other locals. Thanks again man, completely unnecessary but greatly appreciated!
And last buy not least, @wolfpac255 had thrown out a #lif for some older (and newer) cans that were taking up space in his fridge, in which I was the recipient of. Some have already been consumed, some have already been forwarded for others to try, and some won't have long to wait long to be knocked back. Thanks again Eric!
if anyone would be interested figured I'd share https://mailchi.mp/thebeerexchange/whales-for-wishes-2020-rare-beer-raffle-w4w#FAQ
@azuelke is not the only Newbie getting expected and unexpected packages... @Jackd33 saw a new Monkish tick he thought I may appreciate and must've had some room for some other new brews too! Streetside Interstate Pastry Fight (enjoyed from a crowler that Jack sent but not from the can) Monkish Hearts Turn Brave - was delicious as expected Hubbard's Cave French Toast stout - sounds excellent Jackie O's Rye Barrel Dark Apparition - never had a Dark App I didn't like and this looks excellent too Thanks JD! I had almost forgotten I asked @locoformavs to proxy and send some Weldwerks and when @CBrodbeck heard I had ordered them, I agreed to share half the bottles with him since he so generously hosted Charliefest last month (of course I was going to share with Charlie anyway ) Thanks Logan for the Vanilla Destinations and Double Barrel 1910 Medianoche bottles!
Liked for the "IN", not the thing before it. That reminds me, it's probably about time we have an official round soon...
Hope everyone stays healthy for the foreseeable future. Enjoy the quarantine and enjoy drinking down your cellars~!!!
So it seems @HeartofMiami thought I needed some beer. Idk what it is about @jhavs & saying the word forward, but every time he does it seems like my porch is crushed. Jared sent an awesome mix of Breweries I have yet to try. The only one that’s not a new brewery tick is the Funky Buddha (& it’s been on the wishlist for some time) 3 sons-Dopealicious! Civil Society-Diablo Sandwich (collab w/ Burial!) Funky Buddha-The Love Below! J Wakefield-Live & Let Brew! Lone Pine-Holy Donut! & a super fresh Crowler of Invasive Species-Value meal! This box looks delightful & I can’t wait to try them! & for not being able to send fish & chips, you sure made up for it with all the food referenced beer! “Diablo Sandwich”, “Holy Donut” & even a “Value Meal” Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner! Thanks a ton, Jared & cheers all!
Finished my last newbie beer last night, Coconut and Vanilla Benthic from @Satch44. Many thanks man, this was incredible! Definitely lived up to the hype!
@Eziel is right...quiet here but a glimpse behind the scenes as to what’s really going on... @Burrass still slingin the Joose and some Hairy Coconuts too This great trio made for some nice Crowler hours, thanks Matt! The Newbies are keeping USPS busy and a world pandemic can’t stop @BartS from sending some Cali favorites cross country Monkish Foggier Lockdown, Pluckin Petals and Images of Rapture plus FW 2020 Parabola and FW Cocoanut Parabola, thanks Bart! #fuckCOVID
I have been slacking on a bunch of hauls around here. First up was a pick up from @cpsfgd: The extra was tasty and I solo'ed the vibes last night and enjoyed the hell out of it. Thanks Chris! Next up, Chris was willing to split an allocation with me, and @Dicers was able to do the pick up: Seth even through in a blind chugs, that I need to get to in the next day or 2. Thanks Seth! Lastly a box from @azuelke. Adam used the fact that I had him pick up 2 bottles for me to destroy me porch: Bunch of extras, some sweets for the kids and a sample of GTS! Thanks Adam!
