    Yeah, I stayed out of that one. I think we need a little more #befriendly in that group lately.

    Honestly guys as fast as it sounds like it's going, only a small percentage of people visiting even know/knew what it is, and they still have several pallets of it sitting in the back.

    500x12 is 6000 bottles.

    That's .6 of a million.

    It's actually .006 million.

    Still quite a bit.

    600,000 bottles of any kind of Jester King would be a cool sight.

    It has been label approved, so maybe we will see some.

    Hey guys many may not know me (probably no one) but last week I sent some Hibernal Dichotomous to someone for a trade and come to find out today that my bottles broke in route to him. If anyone out of the kindness of their heart could help a fellow beer drinker with replacing the bottles that broke, I would be so grateful and in debt to you forever! I am not asking to get a freebie but to get the guy his bottles. I am in Dallas,Tx so driving back to Austin is kind of out of the question for awhile.

    Thanks for looking!

    Glad I never made the trade with you, lol, joke! What happened? It's rare to get broken bottles if you ship snug and well protected. Hopefully you can work it out man. Good luck

    I had a bottle of censored leak on the way to my buddy in Boston, there was still enough to try it once it got there and the rest of the bottles were fine but it was quite a mess he said. I had everything packed tight, wrapped and the cap taped on. I know many doubt the validity of taping caps but maybe thats why it didnt blow :-/

    All that to say, I feel ya man. Wish I had some Dichotomous to help you out, I ended up sending my buddy some other JK beer I had been holding on to that was a bit nicer.

    I am not sure because that day I sent out 3 other boxes and all of them got there fine. But I think I found someone to help me out! I love this beer community!

    Yeah I am not sure how it happened bc I used half a roll of bubble wrap on each box I sent that day. But stuff happens and hopefully this guy I am talking with can help me make this right!

    Thanks for the support though!

    I had Censored leak on me for 2 different trades. I blame the extremely hot weather at the time I shipped last year. Thankfully, I bought plenty when it was out and was able to ship to those trading partners when cooler weather finally came.

    Also spirited shippers sold at @lonestarbev, he's converted me.

    While I like the spirited shippers, that is what Thomas used coming home from DLD when his BVDL was broken!

    Talking to one of the JK workers he said he had the largest single purchase he's ever seen, 10 cases of this beer to one guy, over $2K.

    That's ridiculous.

    Seeing as how its now rated as one of the top 5 best beers ever brewed in this state, dude is clearly looking to trade a ton of it.

    /saw some guy buy 12 cases a couple of weeks ago
    /this beer is absolutely incredible
    /heard they are gonna run out soon
    /brewery release only!
    /im changing my rating to 5/5

    lets hype it up more guys to increase the trading value
