Looking forward to jumping in on the next one!
Shall we talk about topics/limits to give TheMan an idea on what should be next??
I think some sort of can limit, we tried this last year in the fall and I think now that spring time is here and summer around the block more brewers are going the canning route.
Possibly also a 22oz sour limit? either 2 12oz or 1 22/750 to mix it up a little bit?
Johnnyhitch1 has the HT connection I think! Glad to see your in. Brewing my HT clone next Tuesday. Never had the real deal before.
Wish there was a way to preserve the fresh hop flavors and aromas longer

I'd say no to sours. There was just a sour swap.

Instead of picking a style for everyone what if everyone picks their own styles? I.E. - 160 oz min - must include 40 oz of style 1, 20 oz of style 2 and 20 oz of style 3 (or whatever amounts of however many styles). So when you sign up you would say "I'm in - stout, DIPA, sour" and you would get 40 oz stouts, 20 oz DIPA and 20 oz sour (plus 80 oz senders choice). Sort of a make a wish swap. That way if someone wants more of their favortie styles, they can ask for that or they can ask for a style they rarely drink to get more exposure or mix up some old favorites and exploration.

I like this idea, although it might be hard for TheMan to distribute that much information.
Think it should be a universal XXX/xxx styles. If you don't like them this round you jump in on next, cant always accommodate everyone.
I think we should do an April Fools box...everybody ship an empty box to their person.
I like a cans only swap. Title it "Swap 8 - Show Us Your Cans".
If the man is unavailable for awhile or wouldnt want to put together this round, I can volunteer to put together the "personal style" swap. Anyone heard from him lately? And I'm not trying to take this or anything away from him, just willing to help out if need be since so many of us are ready for the next one.
Sounds good to me

Obviously no one vote determines the outcome, but my vote is against the cans swap. I've done an all can swap on BA and got 30 different cans, and while it was fun, there are few (I know HT and GB) high quality or even limited release cans. I'd rather get higher quality beer regardless of the serving vessel.
And my personal opinion is cans burst quite easily in shipping, seen it happen a lot with cans.
It would be a bit hard for me to get a decent amount of cans for a trade. Not that many breweries out here can their beers. I guess I can just send 4packs and 6ers of cans from the breweries that do.
