I live in Michigan. Typically a locals trade entails two folks from different parts of the country sending their favorite local beers to one another. This way, each party gets to try stuff they wouldn’t get to other whys. Some people match $4$ which means they each spend the same amount of money on the boxes they send to each other. Some prefer to match volume wise which means they send the same physical amount of beers. Some just send awesome beers and try to make the other person smile when they open the box. That’s kind of the category I fall into. Cheers.
Sadly, we got news from one of @Scottsbeer friends that he unexpectedly passed away this morning. RIP Scott, may you have never ending boxes hit your porch up above!
Looks like a new iteration of ranking has been applied to the beer kingdom. 695 it is for now I guess.
Looking like 8th years is almost upon us fellow Newbies!!! Hope everyone will enjoy a solid crafty this weekend to celebrate!
