I knew there'd be a wise guy once I saw the post. No surprise its a staten islander. Happy 4th

 

[mikeysab]

Haha. Was hoping you wouldn't get all offended. Enjoy the day. If the rain stays away, that is

 

[TheMan]

I was gonna say...I never got any mice from mikeysab in any of my trades with him. Otherwise I'd be jealous.

 

[mikeysab]

I could add a mouse to your box. Plenty of them at work. I lied....they're rats at work.

Ew, no. Rats are gross.

 

[bigmike99]

I have tons of rats at work. Big ones too that monitor your every move. Lol.

 

[mikeysab]

Don't get me started on the two legged rats.

So I really want to get involved in this MAW deal. Is there a minimum number of items on a wishlist that need to be fufilled in order for it to work? I mean, I can see that a lot of people throw in extras, which I am happy to do as well, but I want to know what the expectations have been for getting the wishlist filled. Approximately.

The only requirement is that you can send two of the beers on the list. That's it. Extras are encouraged, but not required lol

2 is the official rule. Seems more is the new normal, even if it's random extras!
Edit* I was beat by TheMan!

 

[NuclearRich]

Cool! I will hope to fill an order soon then!

 

[mikeysab]

You could practice by sending me a bunch of beers.

 

[KeyWestBrewing]

You meet all the requirements to join. If you have any questions check out the OP and if that doesn't answer em feel free to PM me or ask in the open thread.

Not to derail the thread too much, but a list of the most commonly requested (easier) beers would be great for those of us that are beer disadvantaged. Especially when we travel to other areas (I am in Texas right now), but don't get much in North Dakota.

 

[namyarb3]

It is what it is. Make a wish. If homey wants whales, that's his wish. Not that the current list is whales by any means, but it's his wish.
I got one of these, so I wait for another...

If you're in Texas, try to pick up some ru-55 from jester king. Maybe even some of the new sours that were recently released.

I think he wants a list if what to buy, not an easier wish list.

In Texas I would say check out Jester King. Tasty beers (if you like sours) and I think some specific beers of theirs have come up. KBS and bourbon county stout have also made a few lists and are found more easily in some areas.

I scroll through the pages of this thread. You'll see everyones lists. you'll see trends. This is kinda how I generate my own list lol. There are a few I've been wanting for a while, but the rest are just ideas I took from others lists.

If course I did. When I get out if ND I try to hunt down beer for myself and my friends. Guess I will just grab a case of Cantillion abd Saison Dupont.

Since there are very few beers in North Dakota that are special.

 

[TheMan]

Just looked up north Dakota...yikes. Your best bet is maybe finding some bells expedition stout and using the cantillon to trade for more rare beers. The saison DuPont isn't likely to get you anything. It's pretty widely distributed. Not a lot going on in the nd beer scene it seems.

P.s. which cantillon are we talking about here?

 

[thatjonguy]

Thanks for advice. Kriek.

Well, if you are able to get anything Cantillon by the case, I'd say that's a great start. You can hoard half of it and trade the other half out for other rare, hard to get, and/or sought after beers. While you're in TX, as already suggested, pick up some Jester King or St Arnold. Those don't seem to appear too much on MAW lists, but are great beers and have trade value--again, can probably land you some bottles that are frequently seen on MAW lists.

I understand you may have less access in ND, I don't think any of us could take any of these lists to the bottle shop and really expect to find two listed beers just sitting on the shelves, no matter where we are located (although sometimes it happens). Many of us have been building up our cellars for years and this is where a lot (maybe not all) of the MAW hits are coming from. For instance, one of the extras I sent skeezerpleezer was a 2011 Weyerbacher Blasphemy. Not necessarily a hard to get beer, but one I've been sitting on for two years.

I'm sure you already know how this works and you probably have a cellar of your own; I'm just trying to help. As for a list of what people are looking for, read the thread and find the wish lists that have been posted; I don't think anybody here is going to do your homework for you.

After a quick scan of seekabrew, I see at least three breweries available in ND that appear on a lot of wish lists. If you haven't already, I'd recommend following them on twitter, subscribe to their email newsletters, or however you like to get your information. That may help you to learn about special releases, etc. And as mentioned earlier in this thread, nothing beats building a relationship with your retailer for getting a jump on special releases that he may get in but that never make it to the shelves.

I took your question as "how to get into the game." Hopefully I read it correctly; I just gave you a few tactics to that end. Hope it helps. Hope to see you jumping in on this soon!

Cheers!

Dude, cantillon is gold to me. I would be more than happy to get as much from you as possible. Any cantillon, actually.

 

[coldcrash]

Found a box of goodies on my doorstep today from disturbdchemist. That's two Jester Kings from my wish list, plus five local Texas beers, a Karbach glass and some stickers.

Oh yeah, and some ketchup...

Thanks Dustin! :rockin:

 

[KeyWestBrewing]

And some ketchup.... Gnarly!!

 

[WesleyS]

And some ketchup.... Gnarly!!

Not just "some" ketchup, "the" ketchup!
Whataburger spicy ketchup. It's the best!

I got hosed by the liquor store, they "accidentally" sold what they said they were holding. I will let you know when I get some more.

I didn't think Shelton Bros even distributes to ND, do they? That liquor store might have been blowing smoke about sitting on a 'case of Cantillon'...

B. united might run through there. But yea, I can't really see any store in the U.S. getting Cantillon by the case. Buy I can't really call them out on that, I haven't been anywhere near ND.
