Wow, got scturo's box already! Talk about fast shipping! Unfortunately, the box looked pretty bad, so I was pretty worried... I'm actually surprised they delivered it. Fortunately it was only 1 bottle that leaked and a couple cans got dented. Ended up with about 3/4 of a bottle of the Smog City The Nothing left, everything else was good to go. Thanks for the awesome box scturo!

 

[Scturo]

Holy Chit! What did they do to to that box, My apologies PaulR, I will send out a replacement box to you. At least it wasn't as bad as it looked.

 

[JDXX1971]

mmmmmm, Smog City has some good beers. Spent quite a bit of time at their booth at the Booneville beer fest.

 

[GnenieGone]

When's the next one start!?!

I never mail anything breakable or liquid with USPS. They are always rough with their packages.

Plus, if you get a postmaster who's having a bad day, he/she could rat you out for mailing an unauthorized item. That would be no bueno...

 

[froggyfrog]

Hey @jimyson - The eagle has landed.

Hope everything arrived safely!

Our records indicate that the package has been delivered.

[froggyfrog]

Thanks, @fourfarthing ! This box rocks.

 

[fourfarthing]

Figured you would dig the Trillium bonus. Enjoy sir!!

 

[TwistedGray]

Delivered Let me know what's in there outside of all the random trinkets!

 

[jimyson]

Any comments or suggestions while the next one is being planned?

I like the idea of including at least homebrew in the mix?

 

[jimyson]

I do as well but we do risk having some drop out if they aren’t actively brewing.

Yeah, I figure that to so I started 10 gallons about three weeks ago
...you know...just in cases

 

[jimyson]

My production happened to go up during the last conversation of this as well for some odd reason.

Worst case you can start with the "homebrew" rule, and if there is not enough turn out then open it up?

OR crazy idea ... you can have it both ways ... Everyone who has a homebrew goes into list 1 and everyone who does not goes into list 2 so it would ultimately be a 2-in-1 FotD swap.

...then again, I'm not the one coordinating and that sounds like it could turn out to be a pain in the ass.

 

[PaulR]

Just received a make up box from Scturo for the leak in the last box. Unnecessary, but amazing! Thanks Scturo!

Cool, I hope you enjoy the brews!

 

[cegan09]

I think the simple answer is say offer either glassware or homebrew. doesn't discriminate, but opens up that option.

Valid.

 

[fourfarthing]

I gave froggy the option of Homebrew or glassware. I still have an Ommegang glass somehow.

 

[GnenieGone]

Personally, like the idea of a separate HB Trade Thread. It's already in the FotD guidelines that HB is acceptable. I've packed HB every time.

When are you starting your new thread?

Seems like we keep it the same and wait for your thread for more homebrew based trades.

 

[GnenieGone]

When are you starting your new thread?

Well, I'm really best known as an idea man!

 

[TwistedGray]

I think if you split it out you might see less partakers to both...see what happened to the LOT thread?

 

[PatrickGoss]

Seems like both make a wish threads have about died as well.

Saddest to see gone is the BIF, but the last few I sent.... pointing out the thread to the recipient... never showed up.
