    Like the day you have to pack it up for a move, I even emailed buddies saying next weekend we are having a drink my cellar camping trip, that helps cut down boxes.

    Bonus points for the fact I packed beers I was trading and now have to figure out which boxes I stuck them in

    Those boxes get lighter throughout the day and get easier to move. Good luck!

    Ya I gave/ "sold" (they donated cash at a significant discount) my cellar away when we moved, I miss the gems but they are good homes now, and I feel like less of a hoarder with a mere ~30 bottles.

    Oh...trust me...you're no hoarder - you shouldn't feel bad. I wish I had just 30 cases!

    (And, just to belabor the point...it's currently roasting here in Los Angeles. I'm "staying in" and going through bottles by myself from my cellar proving....yet again....that I'm ruining more bottles than are improving by cellaring them! with the rare exception).

    I'm looking at that myself. Not at the moment, but maybe moving within the next year or so. Not looking forward to moving my cellar, Homebrew equipment or all my guitars and amps.

    The sad part is I just talked myself into running to the store to pick up some beer since I packed everything and want something to drink

    I feel ya, I had upwards of 50 cases, not counting homebrew and carboys, and then there was the wine bottles.... I have my TH collection I'm slowly growing and will try to keep it to just that.

    Thomas Hardy's. They are the only thing I'm looking to collect, so if you have any pre-2000s you are looki g to get rid of ill give them a good home. Have a deal set up (hopefully) trading some Prairie Bomb for early 90s TH.

    So I got my trade beers out of boxes and on the shelf. My gf mistook this for meaning these where beers I left out for drinking and very much enjoyed the box of chocolate I was sending for a trade...life lesson there I think somewhere
