    Count me in, I do not have any home brew ready but we have some pretty good breweries around here that I am sure aren't available outside the southern areas. Keep in mind I can send out a few, I already have 2 people interested. Once I get my batches done I would be more than happy to send a few out as well.

    I really wanted to get some out before but never had the funds with all my trades going on recently. I already got my KS tax returns back and waiting on my Federal to come in any day. Plus you have forced my hand when you sent me one :D

    I came home from court this afternoon to find this on my porch. I was totally confused, because I don't have any trades that were pending (and let's face it - the only thing i have delivered is beer these days). When I read who it was from, mcbaumannerb, I totally panicked and thought I may have agreed to a trade the last time I was hammered over on beerforum but totally forgot to live up to my end. I raced over to my computer and looked in my inbox but nothing was there.

    After opening the box, I found the note which told me about this thread. I can't put into words how touched and and appreciative I am! Thank you Mark, from the bottom of my heart. How the heck did you know that 4 of those beers were specifically on my to trade for radar? ...fantastic!!!! BEST. GIFT. EVER.

    I will definitely continue this and pay it forward (as soon as I replenish my bank account from the car repair)

    Glad they got there safe and sound - and after what you went through last week, I figured you needs a lift! Since we are close I had to really lean on Seekabrew to get things you shouldn't normally see. Enjoy!

    I may have over protected them, but I thought those home depot boxes were the perfect size for this so I needed extra padding to fill the gaps. I have started only shipping beer vertical in the box lately. I used to lay them all sideways, but that is so damn loud!

    You think fedex cares which way is up when they're throwing your box around?

    haha probably not, but my thought is they at least handle them that way before it leaves the drop off location. Once its left there, its a good bet they wont question it. Just my preference.
