Yeah right, can you imagine all the new money traders when this makes it stateside? Immediately will go for DQ++.

i stood in line for 3 nights during the blizzard of 2015 and got frostbite and lost most of my apendages to spend $360 per bottle of framboozle. all things considered, i think this should pull at least a Dairy Queen with a plus on your side. Can also make this trade 12 times since I had no reservation dropping 4+ grand on this tart red nectar trading currency.

I did a blind tasting, and 2005 Lindeman's won. True story.

I assume framboos will be sold at the restaurant shop?

 

[Treebs]

I wonder how many pallets Shelton will sit on and never sell?

Had a Moreau oude Geuze by boon recently and thought it was quite good. pretty similar to boon MP OG. Anyone else try this?

In case anyone cares, my box from BelgiumInABox cleared customs and will be delivered tomorrow. Took about 6 days to get through customs. Hoping the bottles are in there when the box arrives tomorrow.

I hope so too. Would suck to lose an entire shipment

I currently have a box that's been stuck in Belgium for 13 days since it's been 'shipped.' At what point do I contact someone about this?

Are you waiting for it to pop up on USPS tracking and still using bpost? Sometimes there is a reference number in the bpost tracking page that corresponds to what the actual tracking number is for the USPS. Sometimes the two don't correspond and it looks like a box is stuck in Belgium when it's really well on its way here.

It's about time you guys quit talking about this and finally do something.

So how did you get Kurt to ship? I have been pestering him since early November to ship some orders he has been holding.

This wasn't an order her was holding. I just bought 5 Lambikstoempers when they popped back up on the site and he shipped several days later.

Oh ok, yeah he seems good about shipping if you ship when you order.

took me a week to finally get a shipping invoice from him for reserved orders, starting to dread how long it's going to take to actually receive them.

Sounds about right....

I feel much better knowing I am not alone in this.

I order some stuff back in November on hold. I then ordered another at the end of December and emailed him right after. He responded back to me within a day and got me the shipping order(that he included a very nice extra). Kurt shipped both boxes as my order was quite large within the next few days and I recieved them both in about 2 weeks. Overall I've had times that stuff has gotten stuck at custom for up to a month, but never had any issues with Kurt shipping.

I'm happy to hear you've had good experiences.

Both times I have asked him to ship my items on hold it has taken 2-3 months and dozens of emails to get my beers. And in one case, I didn't even get all the beers I ordered and paid for. After two months of emails, he admitted he had mis-tracked his inventory and offered me different beers as replacements, as well as a promise to reserve me a couple bottles of another upcoming release, which I reluctantly agreed to. He delivered on the replacement beers, but reneged on the promise to reserve the bottles in question. (And, it again took over a month of me emailing him after the release before he admitted that he wasn't going to make good on his promise.)

I don't know if other people have had problems with him losing track of inventory, but I'm definitely not the only person who has had difficulty getting him to ship in a timely manner.

I'm sad to hear bad experiences, as I've been lucky so far.

 

[Dsal891]

I'm waiting on a bulk tilquin pack and a couple of the lambikstoemper 6 pks. I've been emailing him for about 3 weeks.


Starting To think he just shipped my stuff to someone else which is really ******* unfortunate.

 

[Dsal891]

This is some tasty stuff! (Don't recall it being this delicious last time I had it)

Citrus tartness leads to loads of delicious farmy funk and finishes woody with an apple cider like finish. Really tasty stuff.

Cheers
