I’d be interested but I don’t have any trader rating so I’d be ineligible, right?
 
Nice, well if you guys are short and need someone, and there’s a consensus, I’m in....just let me know.
 
I’ve never shipped beer before, I’d there a preferred method (ie fed ex, ups, pony express)?

Sorry, guys. I've been out of touch for a while now. Really too busy at work to "hang out" like I used to. Plus, I recently found out that my HBT email was not flowing so I was missing notifications for a while. I would be in for this if I had anything, but I'm questioning my quality right now. The last batch moved too quickly to the keg, I think.

Anyway, have fun and keep me in mind for next time.
 
 
Are you guys okay with a pick day change from Thursday (my bday) to Tuesday? The time will remain the same (6pm PST / 9pm EST) unless we need to adjust that to accommodate you East Coasters. Let me know if that works for everyone's schedules.

@JCasey1992 offer

• Top Of The Order Porter W/ Hazelnut, Chocolate, and Vanilla [American Porter]
American Porter with chocolate flavoring, hazelnut flavoring, and pure vanilla extract added at packaging. This recipe was the first dark beer I’ve made that I actually enjoyed. I not only liked it though. I loved it! It was so good that when we lost the first one to the bottom of the keezer due to a leak, I had to brew it again. Since then, I try to keep it on tap at all times and it always goes fast!
ABV - 6.4%
IBU - 42
SRM - 28.5

• 5280 Stout W/ Coconut, Almond, and Chocolate [Milk Stout]
A solid milk stout. I added almond flavoring, chocolate flavoring, and a coconut/rum tincture at packaging. The coconut doesn’t show through like I’d like it but it’s still pretty tasty.
ABV - 5%
IBU - 36
SRM - 40

• Hopping Mad Pale Ale [American Pale Ale]
A hoppy Pale Ale with Cascade, Mosaic, and Citra hops. Nothing fancy here but still a great beer for a hot summer day.
ABV - 5.6%
IBU - 36
SRM - 6.1

• Peach Hat Trick Hefeweizen [German Weisbier]
My basic German hefeweizen recipe with peach flavor added. While I don’t know if it’s necessary, I performed an extensive step mash on this one with rests at 109, 122, 144, 153, and 168. The final product is an easy drinking weisbier with a nice refreshing peach flavor that isn’t overbearing. I intentionally underpitched the yeast to get the ester profile I wanted and this time I think I finally nailed it!
ABV - 5.1%
IBU - 11
SRM - 3

@TwistedGray offer

A six pack of of hard ciders (all hovering around the 5-6% ABV range
• Rooibos tea (pour through small cocktail strainer and/or BIAB if you have one)
• Plantain tea (same as above - note: this is not the fruit but the plant)
• Spiced (cinnamon, cloves, ...)
• Lacto x2 (lactob. and lactose - low doses on both)
• Pomegranate
• Black Cherry

Non-ciders
• Pluot sour (This was made using the co-pitch method, lightly soured - very approachable. It will be bottled next week after being on the pluots for a month. It had an extremely low ABV, as in 1% or less. You wouldn't know it was "non-alcoholic" unless I told you though...mouthfeel is good as is the sour level for being that low ABV.)

• 1776 Ale (This pale ale was brewed on July 4th, and is only 3% ABV - very quenchable. All amarillo hops plus about 1.5lbs of frozen, picked-by-me apricots for about three weeks. May or may not include - some are a bit over carbonated due to fruit getting into the bottle. I'll see what I have...)


And here is the picking order - no beginners luck for @ehk089 and the host of this one gets hosed to...I call a redraw!
