2023 FotD Secret "Santa" ("Cupid"?) Beer Swap

[jerbrew]

@Thorrak I’ll do it again. Love this one.

Wait I thought I already said I was in on this round. Or did I commit to the jelly of the month club again?
Count me in. Still gotta get out my FOTD box. Shooting for Monday for that one.

You gotta send me the template!

I'll ping you.

 

[Thorrak]

Alrighty friends, the emails have been sent!

You should have just received the info for your giftee. If you don't see it, please reach out to me directly here and I can forward it across. As a reminder, the shipping window is from Jan 20th - Feb 2nd. If for any reason you don't think you can ship in this window (or receive, and you didn't already note as such!), please let me know and I will pass the info along to your giftee/santa.

@Thorrak , haven't seen your email yet.

 

[pshankstar]

@Thorrak , haven't seen your email yet.

Check your spam folder. I found mine there just after 1500 EST.

 

[Rish]

Yep, it's there in the spam. Thanks, @pshankstar !

 

[Thorrak]

Ughhhh. For some reason Google tagged everyone’s mail as spam. If you can either ping me or post here acknowledging that you saw/found it (if you did!) I’ll try to keep track and make sure everyone finds out somehow.

 

[Nagorg]

I received mine just fine. (Thank you M365!)

 

[JCasey1992]

Got mine! Someone's in for a treat! Thanks for running this again @Thorrak!

Yep, got mine. It was in the spam folder.

 

[Brew_Dude41]

No issues with my email, got it with no additional searching required.

 

[orionol73]

Mine was also in the spam folder but I have it!

 

[fourfarthing]

Got mine

 

[Rish]

Got all my beers together, will get them packed up tomorrow or Saturday, ship via Shippo by early next week. Really looking forward to getting mine!

First timer so not sure about the protocol. Do I let my donee know who I am with a note in my shipment or do I wait for @Thorrak to announce after we ship?

To me, part of the fun is not knowing so I always wait until thorrak announces at the end. That doesn't stop people from guessing though. If the person I sent to gets it right, I'll usually come clean. Otherwise, I like to build the suspense lol.

This is the way.

One of the best things about having the memory of a goldfish is that everything is a surprise!

One of the best things about having the memory of a goldfish is that you forget when we are supposed to ship and how much we are supposed to ship

It is supposed to be less than 128 gallons.

 

[Thorrak]

I hate you both. So, so much.

 

[Thorrak]

My giftee is going to get my box and be like, “Oh hey, the one dude who listened to the rules! I know who this is!”

 

[Knightshade]

I'll look on in jealousy...haven't been on the site much lately so I missed the original 2 reach outs from @Thorrak. Sure makes curbing back on drinking a lot easier tho!

 

[JCasey1992]

Santa (err... Cupid?) stopped by this morning with a bunch of goodies! I'm wearing the T-shirt now! Can't wait to dig in to these later today! Thanks Santa Cupid!

I have a strong hunch on who my Santa is (mostly because I saw the name on the notification on my UPS app when the shipping label was first created. Oops!) but I'll let you guys debate who it might be lol.

 

[JCasey1992]

P.S. I have a couple final spots to hit up for my giftee but I should be shipping early next week at the latest!

There’ll be another round. You’re always welcome.

127.5 oz from Alabama. Pretty sure I know my sender

 

[ferm.adventures]

My package was sent out Monday and appears to have been delivered today!

I participated in the 12 Beers of Christmas exchange for the first time this year. We did a tasting commentary on a beer each day once beers were received which was very interesting. What do y'all think about doing something like that for the beers we get with this swap? Just what you think of the beers you are drinking from your gifter.
