Fellowship of the Drink Trading Thread

I hope everything gets packed and shipped well for everyone.

Remember, give work addresses if you can receive packages there, it'll save the shipper some money. UPS and FedEx charge more for residential shipping.

Pack well, and cross your fingers. No one likes soggy boxes!

 

[Scturo]

Ok let's start another one

Haha, once the offers are received, we can see what everyone, thinks

 

[RevKev]

Ok let's start another one

I will forever follow this game as long as it goes on, a huge thank you to @Scturo for starting this on HBT.

 

[JDXX1971]

Yippppeeeee!!!!!!!!!!

That was fun, I will have to pay attention and catch the next one.
Thank you Scturo, I had a blast. I will ship Bigfish713 his package asap.

 

[Scturo]

Any comments good or bad, are welcome.

 

[Scturo]

Thinking of eliminating the mandatory glassware for the next one. You can still offer some up, it just won't be mandatory.

 

[Scturo]

Nice!

I will go with Scturo's offer.

You can expect a HB or two in the box. I've only been doing this for a year, so feedback would help.

 

[nickfern]

Keep glassware, it adds a nice wrinkle. Especially if the glassware is a sampler or something different.

New thread for the next. Lock up first one and start with a new one and number it #2 and so on.

 

[RevKev]

I'm gonna go with RevKevs offer

Packaged up and will ship tomorrow! A special Canadian suprise will always be in my gifts.

Cheers everyone!

 

[imasickboy]

The glassware is a burden for packing, as it's more fragile than bottles. But, it does differentiate this trade from most of the others. It lends a definite uniqueness to the trade.

I would love to see a homebrew-only trade. Or one that requires homebrew. I would expect more of them here on HBT, but it's ridiculously rare.

One final suggestion:

Too many of us are sitting here with 0 iTrader feedback. I encourage all involved in this to leave feedback for your sender.

 

[Scturo]

Forgot to mention that the player who chooses first, gets to host the next round, (Looks at Thorrak)

+1, this is a great opportunity to bolster eachother in the community. I think imasickboy has a great point here

 

[gromitdj]

Lot's of fun! Thanks to @Scturo and all his work. If a new thread is started for the next one, make an announcement in this thread, I want to know about it.

P.S.: I too like the glassware.

 

[JDXX1971]

Yeah for sure post it up here. I will leave this thread in my folder. Yes the glass is worthy, a keepsake. I would be up to this every month or other as long I am working.

Oof. If that's the price I have to pay for good beer, it's one I'll pay happily. Keep your eyes peeled, the fellowship kicks off in 2-3 weeks.

Cool, I was only half serious. But if you think you can manage it, give it a go. The good thing is now that we've had one, the next one is easier. Everyone can give advice. :rockin:

Nice, I will give you my opinion, I have been drinking beer for a few years.

This was fun.

 

[b-boy]

Sorry - I was literally out of internet range for a few hours. Whatever I end up with is fine with me.

No worries bud, I'm just sorry you missed your high pick, Cheers

@RevKev offer came in today with a little Canadian surprise. Thanks man!

 

[imasickboy]

That is awesome!

 

[b-boy]

@RevKev offer came in today with a little Canadian surprise. Thanks man!

You're gonna love that Hayburner. I think that's the best beer made in Buffalo.

 

[RevKev]

@RevKev offer came in today with a little Canadian surprise. Thanks man!

You'll have to let me know what you think of it all! I'm just glad it made it in one piece!

Cheers!!! :beer:

 

[Scturo]

Very cool!

 

[nickfern]

Any other packages land?

 

[imasickboy]

My shipment for tjosbourne is allegedly delivering by Tuesday.

This thread also induced an additional trade with a different individual, and it is also allegedly delivering by Tuesday.

 

[jerbrew]

So sad I missed this. Sub'd for the next one.

 

[Scturo]

Got mine today. And all I can say is WOW! b-boy really hooked me up! I was excited just to try the Valar Dohaeris Tripel. Then b-boy added an Ommegang IPA, two Southern Tier brews, and a Flying Bison barleywine. Thank you so much b-boy! Cheers all!

 

[gromitdj]

Thanks to @Thorrak, Mine's here too!

I'd post a picture but it would look just like the one he provided, so it'll have to wait until I pour one into my new favorite glass.

 

[afro_lou]

Wahoo!!! Thanks @EcuPirate07 ! Extra can, even! Many thanks, and I can't wait for these to get chilled and into my sweet new glass.

My wife was like, "Are you trading OATMEAL now???"

 

[imasickboy]

I imagine a couple of oatmeal stouts were brewed just so you could safely receive your glass.
