Beer It Forward

At 36 ounces each they are small by BIF standards, but I think the people on the receiving end will be happy to have some beer show up all the same.

Beer is always a good thing

36 ounces oh hops?! just kidding, but still, you are on a level of generosity that most people will never understand. With all of these BIF packages you ship out, I wish I could send you the same. Cheers buddy, one day you will get some bif beer from me.

Now that would be a BIF. At the rate I have been brewing lately it would be a years supply.

I don't know what it is about buying beer for people. It brings me joy. Used to do pitchers after work every day but with the new baby I always rush home. Bif's give me my fix I guess. On that note... There should be a few landing today. More of a powdery... Dust like substance.

So, I was one of the lucky recipients.

So excited to finally get to try Zombie Dust! What a great surprise after a crappy day at work.

Thanks again Patrick!

And I was a lucky recipient as well! One bottle sprung a leak in transit, but everything stayed dry and there's half a beer chilling for later. I can finally do a side by side! Thanks Patrick! Very much appreciated!

That is zombie dust leaker number two in two days. I am going to start running the capper over everyone of those as soon as I get them.

The kind of generosity from people on here can only be described as King sized! Cant wait to see this bomb!

BIF on its way out for a short trip to the state of my birth.

Just realized I forgot to put the note in the box. Ah well...

same here ... I'm going to just send a PM and try to time it.

 

[Javier25]

Wow man, I can't believe what I got in the mail today. Mark sent me a BIF box that blew me away. I am tremendously grateful. Thank you so much.
It's amazing how generous people can be towards others, especially people they don't really know. I will post pics in a little bit

 

[Javier25]

Too big to comfortably fit into 1 picture this is one hell of a BIF. And I've been dying to try these homebrews! Thank you again Mark!

Can't wait to get home and have another hop stinger! I don't usually get the opportunity to drink others' homebrews. So I get really excited when I have some in my fridge!

Is it as good as reputation implies? If my travels or my brewing ever land something truly special in my cellar that guy will be my first pm for a trade.

Stupid FedEx. Apparently this package is still sitting in my building's lobby (apt building). Called the front desk since the tracking number still wasn't registering with FedEx.

Apparently the regular FedEx Ground guy can't take this (even though he's been there several times since Friday) because it's a Home Delivery. And the Home Delivery guy hasn't shown up yet. Sounds like BS to me, but has anyone had similar issues?

If I try to schedule a pickup on the FedEx website, I can only choose Ground Pickup, no option for Home Delivery. I've left packages before and this hasn't been an issue...

 

[TheCADJockey]

I buy beer for my less... enthusiastic, friends every week. Usually multiple times. This thread looks great, only been here a little while now and am so in love with this site. I've learned so much in such a short time its crazy. Maybe I can start a thread where I can do CAD drawings for those in need :cross:

No, I drop of at a FedEx Office that's not to far away. Do they have a ground drop off box anywhere near your place?

No, but I never ship FedEx Home. I'll just ship ground and take the small surcharge when they realize it's a residence. FedEx Ground passes at our office every weekday.

I worked for Home Delivery. It was a great job, but many were subcontracted and made nowhere near what a 'real' FedEx employee does. Therefore, many packages were not treated as nicely.

Yea, but why would I want to walk 5 blocks when I could drop it off in my lobby? :cross:

I just scheduled a pickup request, so we'll see what happens. If it's still there when I get home on Friday I guess I'll take it somewhere else.

 

[pointcity-homebrew]

I always schedule a pick up, the closest drop off for me is 20 mins away. I have not had any issues as of yet.
I used to use the drop off box, but since it was home they stopped picking it up and would just leave it sitting there.

I hope to get back in the giving spirit soon, still recovering from vacation.

Mark, congrats on the win. Let me know if it works well I have been looking at those for a bit.

 

[BGBC]

BIF being held at FedEx Office location for pickup. Looks like it was intercepted. Just glad FedEx finally decided to pick it up.

 

[pkincaid]

I'd love to
Surprise someone. shoot me an addy of someone in need.

 

[pkincaid]

Got one! Thanks!

 

[mcbaumannerb]

That would have been my doing BGBC! I had put a one day vacation hold on my account for yesterday because I knew beer was coming from a friend and I wouldn't be home. What a great surprise when I got this from the FedEx store too!


Thanks a bunch - can't wait to get into those homebrews this weekend!

 

[Hello]

A small, very small, BIF package en route to WA. He knows he is getting it so there's that.
