A package landed for @wstbrewing today too.

Humbled by the beautiful box. Everything arrived safe and sound. Thank you Jimyson.

Every October when my birthday rolls around, I realize I meant to start a birthday club among the FotDers. Because what could be better than making your online beer buddies birthday better by dropping a six pack on their doorstep? Anyway, I'd like to get it rolling for the upcoming year, limiting it to 12 people, and ~72 oz packages. For those who have no idea wtf I'm talking about, the "Birthday Club" members each send a small package of beers to each of the other members in the weeks leading up to their birthday. What that means for you is this: you send out 11 small boxes of beer to 11 different people, at predetermined times of the year. In return, you receive 11 small boxes of beer in time for your birthday.

Any interest? Additional thoughts?

I’m game. And not just bc I have a November birthday...
 
If you want a mystery box there is a thread for that - Local Only Trade (https://www.homebrewtalk.com/forum/threads/local-only-trade-lot.548354/).

The draw with FotD is that you know what you are getting, at least from the base offer perspective. If I want a stout-heavy offer, I usually have that option. If I want a sour-heavy offer, I almost always have that option.

If it were a gamble and the person on the other end doesn't know my style preference, I may get an entire offer of beer that I could not physically drink. The idea is cute, but again there is a thread for that.

If you do this, the mystery boxes should almost completely contain one style of beer (or similar styles) because you still fall into the trap of possibly getting beers you cannot drink or do not want to drink. If you show one stout and ship one stout and a half dozen DIPAs, it would be a sad unboxing day (for me).


Loved the LOT trades. That's where I started trading. Sending my first shipment to @TBC a few years ago, been fun.
