I'm Thinking... 09/09/09 Barleywine

[Saccharomyces]

Wow those are some nice looking labels!

 

[jmulligan]

The weather in Tennessee is going to be perfect for the next week or so, temps in the mid to upper 70's. This won't last, hint, hint.

Yours is on the truck to be delivered as I type! How's that for timing?

Edit: Sumo's has been delivered.

Double ninja edit: wildwest450 delivered!

 

[TerapinChef]

I'd like to note that while I have not shipped yet, I had planned on shipping my boxes with those lovely little frozen gelpacks that everything frozen comes into our restaurant with, so that should help retard the heat as well. Sorry I haven't gotten your beers to you yet, but I promise it'll be worth the delay!

Damn good!

Oooh Pliny! I've never had it! I'm so excited I could pee myself.

You rule jmulligan. I would so kiss you right now (even if you weren't a chick).
Excitedly running around the house waving arms in the air like a three year old.

 

[bashe]

I just shipped all mine today, I will PM tracking info later.

 

[korndog]

Ok, I'm guilty this swap. I will get mine out soon, I promise. I have to say, they are more DIPA in character than BW, so drink em up if you want.
I'll toss in something good for your patience.

I thought that would please you. That was one of like 5 Plinys I brought back East from a business trip out to CA in April. Enjoy!

Now that is a sacrifice.

 

[FSR402]

Oh I love Pliny. Drank my last bottle of it on Mothers day.
It will be 20 years or more before I can get more. so not fair.

[MNBugeater]

[TerapinChef]

Bottling today, pick out my extras, grab freezer packs from work, and ship early this week. Definative plan. Now to plot out my packing method. They keep getting better every time.

 

[KingBrianI]

It will be in the 70s for a few more days here then it'll be the 80s and up until fall! hint hint

 

[CBBaron]

All of my packages have been confirmed delivered. And I have received packages from everyone assigned. Thats 6 packages that have found their home.

[FSR402]

I'm still waiting on two, they know who they are and they have been in contact about it so no worries.

 

[Dr_Deathweed]

I am waiting from two as well, I have heard from each of them at least once, but if I don't hear from them by the end of the month I may be sending a a little PM nudge in their direction

Ditto on both counts. Mine are all out, but I have received only one. They know who they are.......

 

[TexLaw]

They know who they are.......

Yep, and one of them just got yours out. Finally, I got the magic convergence of a good day do get over to FedEx, a Monday, and a break from the 95-ish degree heat wave that lasted two weeks or so.

Sorry about the delay, folks, but all of you should have your packages by the end of the week.

[Couevas]

No prob Tex. I was just playin in the post above (kinda )
I got your PM and tracking info. Thanks!!

 

[Amiaji]

My three packages went out yesterday. 2 to arrive tomorrow and the other wont get there till next Tuesday. I hope you guys enjoy it.

 

[wildwest450]

Is there going to be a cutoff date for shipping?

 

[FSR402]

Is there going to be a cutoff date for shipping?

At what point do we stop waiting? I have 2 of the 3 and it's been a while since I have heard from the 3rd, was thinking I will send a PM and ask what the ETA is.

 

[BierMuncher]

Is there going to be a cutoff date for shipping?

No cutoff.

If you haven't heard from your senders, PM them and ask for an update.

If you haven't sent your beers, get off your butts.

If you haven't communicated, please do so immediately.

 

[Couevas]

Bottled up.

One step at a time. Will box and ship later this week.

2-BW's
1-Helles
1-Haus APA (aka Kona)
1-Tits Up IIPA
1-Captain Hooked on Bitters (1st place Special Bitters)

All except the BW's can be enjoyed immediately (after a good 48 hour chill).

I see a box of Aluminum bottle Bud Lights (not judging or anything....)
but you may have wanted to crop that a little better.

Ha, hah.

No bud alloys in my repertoire. Just some stolen cartons for storing empty 12'rs. :cross:

Bump.

• We're approaching 90 days from D-Day.
• If you haven't shipped, you are definitely late.
• UPS trucks are going to be running in 100 degree weather soon.
• The integrity of swaps relies on the integrity of those who committed.
• Don't put the integrity of HBT and yourself at risk.
• Get on it.

In another week or so I will solicit names of people who have not shipped.

Packaged up my boxes today. I will ship out on Monday so nothing sits over the weekend. I'd like to blame my delay in shipping on the fire but that's only a minor part of it. I'm an extremely bad procrastinator at times and most of the delay is my laziness.
BTW Biermuncher and the other two on my list will be getting Homebrews of
a Czech Pils, two Helles beers exact same recipe except for german base grain in one and Canadian 2 row in the other. That turned out quite interesting, you'll have to let me know what you think. The H.C. is the canadian and H.G. is the german. Also sending a Wyerbacher Imperial Pumpkin Ale besides the two 09-09-09.

Biermuncher this was a great idea, I hope to be brewing again in time for the 10-10-10.

Just shipped today, good low temps here in Pa right now. I'll PM everyone and give them tracking numbers. Cost of shipping was high $40 ouch! Still a great idea though a good way to sample different homebrews and share the 09-09-09 on that day.
