Fellowship of The Homebrew VII: Kegs of Fury

[fourfarthing]

I have some oatmeal stout I made that I really like. I'm in to share! Can I share more than one style?

Yes please

 

[Blackdirt_cowboy]

I can’t have any beer ready in time for this round. My in laws were here over Christmas and obliterated my pipeline. If I do participate, it would be April or May before I could catch up and ship, due to my upcoming work schedule, and that’s probably nt fair to y’all. I guess I’ll sit this one out and join in on the next trade.

Next time he goes to JK, Suds Monkey is just a couple miles down 290. Tiny place but decent ipas.

Next time he goes I'm probably going with him. Thanks for the info!

Welcome fellow 12BOC west coaster!

Thank you. 12BOC is what inspired me to join this group.

I am a newbie interested. If you could give more details on how everything works That be cool. I got a coffee chocolate milk stout brewing now. Everything else I have is in 16 oz flip top bottles and I'd hate to lose those.

 

[Gunshowgreg]

Also no documented trade experience. If you need to decline me no worries. Just give me some more info to how I can improve that

Folks typically share 3 to 4 different styles. Check out some of the previous trades to see what has been shipped.

The first post explains in detail, basically you will put up a Homebrew Offer (minimum 4 bottles of as many styles as possible) and we raffle drawing slots, like an NFL draft. The first person gets to choose from all the offers, and so on until all the offers are chosen. Check out some of the previous rounds to get a good idea.

As far as being new, all we ask is that if you choose to participate, that you follow through and ship to whoever chooses you.

 

[Gunshowgreg]

Ok I understand. Is it Individual bottles being sent to who ever or is it the whole pack of who ever chooses me?

 

[Scturo]

Yeah, you send your whole Offer to whoever chooses you.

 

[Gunshowgreg]

Yeah, you send your whole Offer to whoever chooses you.

Well I would definitely like to participate.

 

[Scturo]

Well I would definitely like to participate.

You are in Welcome!

Oh, the newbie pressure! Remember, there is still plenty of time left for us to crank out some good Homebrews. [emoji482]

Nice set of 3! I should do that with all my HBs...but don't have enough glasses! [emoji39]

Yeah. I need some years.... but I will try to have some brews ready.

 

[ThirstyPawsHB]

4 brews fermenting now. Have 2 planned to put on yeast cakes. Liver transplants are now a thing. Great time to be alive!

 

[Beerwildered]

Ok. I’m in. Super noob! But I’ll give it a shot - I’ve got something that should be conditioned and ready in time

Do you have trade experience or know any current participants?

 

[Beerwildered]

I do not.

 

[ThirstyPawsHB]

I do not.

The rules on the 1st page spell it out. @Scturo will have to decide but to be honest a HB trade has less risk then a retail so you have at least 1 [emoji106].

Like PianoMan mentioned, homebrew trades are less risky than retails. Your in if nobody has any problem with it. How many different brews do you expect to have?

Whew. I’d really appreciate participating - I’ve only had family/friend feedback, and one really not good entry into the Minnesota State Fair. If it’s easier to begin, I’d love to simply bottle some brew and send it to folks for feedback - no trade necessary.

At the moment, have a single IPA to offer.

You can PM me your process if you like. Certainly a sample sent my way would help. Most here have phenomenal home brews, better then most retails and/or ultra creative brews. Congrats on moving past friends/family!

I am ecstatic where we have taken this idea! This round is where I had hoped we would get; it's the start of building a larger network of taking homebrews with like minded people.

With that, TO ALL OF THE NEW GUYS read the first post, then read it again, and then click on the link to the first round HBT FotHB, read the entire thread, then move along to the next round until you are caught up. Read every page of every thread. ONLY ONCE YOU HAVE DONE THAT should you ask to join, and for those already joined, do it to make sure you still to join this type of trade.

Not being a prick, just making sure you understand what you are committing to.

If @Brizzo is in, I am in.

Thanks for the warm welcome TwistedGray! I have been looking through all of the past FOTHB trades over the last few months and am super excited to finally be taking the plunge and getting involved!

One question though... It says "Minimum offerings are 4-12oz bottles of your favorite Home brew; ANY beer style along with ciders, meades, hard lemonades, sours, etc."

Is this 1 bottle per style for a grand total of 4 bottles per shipment or 4 bottles per style for a grand total of 16 bottles? I have a pretty strong hunch about the answer but I figured I should be sure before I send the wrong amount.

I look forward to getting involved in this trade and future trades with you guys!

Cheers!
Casey

I sent and received one bottle per style...plus sent an extra of my favorite, and a few commercial calibrations with mine.

Pretty much what I thought! Thanks for the quick answer. Can't wait to see what you guys have to offer!

Cheers!
