Swap-O-Rama #5, The fall harvest...

[Indytruks138]

Mmmm. Westbrooke Gose, soo tasty, I am down to 5 cans and afraid to drink them.

 

[aeviaanah]

Awesome haul!! So when is #6? After the holidays cool down?

 

[BGBC]

The Double Simcoe will probably catch you off guard with all of it's simcoe-y-ness.

Well, what's in a name anyway, haha. I like the beer personally, but it is a simcoe bomb. Almost to the point of onion flavors

Haha, same here. 6 cans left and its gone till spring. Drank a six pack last week. Kinda mad at myself

 

[Johnnyhitch1]

Nice, I got some of the same from psycotte; Spider Bite White Bite(Mine was very carbed, good taste, but too much carb, maybe yours will be different)

We live 20min from each other! lol

I realized that about the white bite after i sent it off. Deff a higher carbed wheat beer,
Only beer i actually enjoy from a pint glass lol

I'd love to get into trading brews! I love our local stuff here in Missouri, but who doesn't wanna try what else is out there?! How do I start? What's a six pack usually cost to ship? And as I'm sure 1000000 people probably have asked, is there anyone that trades 3 floyds, been dying to try a few of there famous brews but fear I never will!

You can get three floyds easily. Ill start up the next swap o rama round in early January. If you want to join feel free! I think its one of the best ways to get beers you've never heard of, that even rival some of those hyped up beers.

Most usually ship more than just a six pack, cant say ive shipped that little before. I usually spend $20 to ship 20# to east coast and $30 to ship to the west coast. And 20# for me is usually 4-6 bombers plus a sixer and more...ask any and all questions you want, we are more than happy to help you get started!

 

[Sanker]

Sounds great.... and that's good news on shipping. I feared a sixer alone would cost 20+!

Picked up a bottle of this in NYC a few months ago - love this beer.

[pluchar]

1 whale per shipment

Yes.. But maybe one local harder to obtain beer.. Not necessarily a whale.

 

[Brewbien]

All the offerings from your favorite local brewery...

 

[TheMan]

Whale or harder to get beer might still be tough to define. I think it needs to be simpler.

 

[jtd_419]

I like this idea but what about the breweries that have less in production at a time

 

[zazbnf]

Seems there is plenty of opportunity for trading whales, I think just local beers. If trading partners are paired from different regions everyone has the opportunity to get things they have never tried before.

 

[TheMan]

Ill probably do something like multiple beers from at least one brewery. People have wanted this before, and I like the idea.

 

[tripplehazzard]

Maybe six beers light to dark on the spectrum and a seasonal bomber

[zazbnf]

Sounds reasonable, maybe set a minumum number of ounces instead of a set number of beers. That way people would have the option to mix and match 12oz, 22oz, and 750's since some beers are only available in certain formats.

 

[TheMan]

I know some breweries dont do 12 oz. And 22 oz/ 750 ml both. So it might be simpler to just require say, 4 beers from a single brewery. Then have a total overall minimum volume that must be sent for the whole package.

 

[DrPhunk]

please post in here once the new thread gets started. thanks!!

 

[BeerMeDuffMan]

I was just kidding about the whale, really...not really for this thread.
In all seriousness, Stout season is on us, maybe a stout/winter warmer round?

Edit:: I should really read before posting, I'm digging the large single brewer bundle idea.

 

[BeerMeDuffMan]

Hmmm should I send a whale or a whiskey as an extra this round i may start buying out some very local only tomorrow so I will most likely be down for this round

Hoping I can get in this round as a rookie.

 

[dotJerdot]

I think round 6 will be when I make my return

 

[ledhead72486]

Hoping to get in too!

 

[Johnnyhitch1]

I like what an earlier poster said. Like a "rainbow" round.

Have to send blonde, copper, amber, brown, black colored beer.
Obviously corresponding to say a Cream ale, IPa/mild, amber ale, brown ale and a stout.

and then just an oz limit to make up the rest of the box?

Just do a real rainbow round, everyone must send all of the Crooked Stave WWB colors! I want those beers so bad haha.

But in reality a cool idea would be you have to send at least one fruited beer/sour that is a non-ordinary color, truly red/pink, orange, blue etc...

GREAT idea.

 

[TheMan]

Well, im going to try to start up the next round tomorrow morning. It will require at least four beers from a single brewery....the rest of the details are unknown so far haha

 

[TheMan]

Ok, after a long wait...I'm creating the new round, now!
