lol, i saw the pic you posted, and got jealous. Went and picked my own up :) This is one of my fav. brews. Over the years, i have created a dead on clone of this brew. Havent bought it for a while, cuz its spendy and i can make it :) Now i need to brew it for a side by side, but when i took the first drink tonight, i was like "ow ya, mine tastes like this all right!!" ......the wife rolled her eyes........ Had to put it in the goose glass, after a successful goose hunt, and all

Just had it last night! Incredibly juicy, bitterness not overpowering, very easy to drink, delicious. Is one of your homebrews that you sent me suppose to be a clone of this? Can you tell me the details of the hop bill/grain bill for your IPA and IIPA? Thanks.

na, no clone. i didnt have much homebrew available. Havent been able to brew cuz of the move.
Those were kind of experements with my homegrown hops. Trying to find a good hop to blend with them. It puts off a strange taste when not blended well. Been hard, but i think i found that citra blends well.

The IPA i like, but wouldnt sit down and have 3-4 in a row. It has a weird taste tht i have been getting with those homegrown hops when i dont blend them with a good hop.

IPA 7% 75 IBU

9# 2-row
1# munich 10L
1# 60L

1oz chinook at 60
1/2 oz each chinook and homegrown cascade at:
10 min
5 min
flameout

1 oz each chinook and homegrown cascade dry hop for 4 days.
US-05 yeast, new pack


The IIPA, i really enjoy. Pretty much got the taste i wanted. I could sit down and have 3-4, but i recommend not, you would get very drunk :)

IIPA 8.2% 64 IBU

10.5# 2-row
1# munich 10L
1# 120L
1# table sugar

1oz citra at 60
1/2 oz each citra and homegrown cascade at:
10 min
5 min
flameout

1oz each citra and homegrown cascade dry hop for 5 days.
US-04 new pack

I cracked one of each last night to get a taste test. Could still sit for a bit to let the flavors flesh out. Carbed up nice though
 
Thank you for your participating. I know how it is when saving for a house. We ate Ramen for 6 months!

Just got through this! I remember mentioning that someone should start a thread like this in the Easy MAW...glad to see you did it Pointcity! I am in to contribute but it looks like Terek has spoken for Idaho. Let me know when I can join!

aw bummer! Well, you can get whoever picks me up :)
 
I have been looking to get into trading for awhile, but never pulled the trigger. I don't meet all of the requirements for this thread, I have been a member for a couple of years, and am a supporter of the site, but I have few posts and no trader history. I could go make a bunch of nonsense posts to get to 100, but I don't think that does anyone any favors.

So...

If someone is willing to trade with me to get me some feedback, I am interested. If I can join the fun on the list here, I am more than willing to ship first and wait for the recipient to confirm receipt, no worries...

By the way, how are you guys figuring out what to send? The rules are at least 48 ounces, but form the pictures, people are being much more generous than that, which I think is great. Just curious if you are buying things you just want to share, or filling a certain size box, or shooting for a rough dollar amount?

So, if anyone is interested in helping me get started with feedback, just let me know. I am in Virginia. I also work in Maryland, so either should be easy, and there are a few breweries in DC that are pretty easy to come by as well...

Thanks

I would trade, but it would be very similar in content. :D

That being said, folks generally seem to fill a standard size box to a comfortable level. Some of us may go a bit overboard, but that is because we are crazy. I usually just find a box in the basement, figure out how many bottles it will take to make sure they aren't going rattle around a break, and then go get them!
 
I'll echo banesong here, I ship whatever will fit in the box, and whatever suits my fancy. My first LOT shipment was lighter than I wanted, because Christmas broke my bank account and I may have consumed a few that I had earmarked for it. The box I received was almost stupidly over packed, and my next one will certainly be repayment for that kindness.

PM me, I'll throw something together for you. Hope you like Lone Star.

Being a lifetime supporter as well as the membership time, it is fine with me if you want to grant. If you would just post on the thread that you have shipped and the recipient confirms then your eligible to be granted.

Thanks for participating.

Go forth with this trade if you'd like, I was by no means trying to stop this trade by allowing the participation here.

I need a trade like I need a hole in my head. Just trying to get him rushed in here/accidentally snag some Terrapin maybe. No biggie.
 
Thanks guys!

If I understand everything OK, I will be granting to Terek. He favors Stouts, and doesn't want Sours.

Do I send him a PM directly to get a mailing address?

I post here when sent, and PM him the tracking.


Banesong: Yeah, I think I will save the shipping! ;-)

1977brewer: I can trade with you if you like, I saw your post about needing another trade like a hole in the head though. I lived in Houston for a couple of years, had plenty of Lonestar back then, haven't had it in awhile though. There wasn't a lot of micro-brew back then, it was in the 90's, but that's where I started my homebrewing, so good memories...

Yes, just shoot Terek a pm for his shipping info. Correct, that way whomever grants knows that you have shipped.

Right on! thanks for granting. I sent my info, but im not sure if it actually sent, keeps giving me some weird message. Let me know if ya got it
 
Yup, PM came through with no issues. I will be shopping this weekend, and mailing sometime next week, will send tracking when I have it...

BTW, totally jealous of your Brew Room!!!
 
I keep saying I need to get in on this. Since we have a new guy going with a wait to grant on, I will grant SMPress. If he falls through, which I really doubt will happen, I will get Terek.

That will keep things moving along nicely... for you mobile users, I am in Indiana.

SMPress, what styles do you favor? I am HB dry, but have a great distro that some people in your area love to hit me up for. Send me your address.
 
PatrickGoss: Sending you a PM momentarily. I am open to about anything I can imagine, to include Cider or Meade. I rather enjoy Rauch's, APA's, Stouts, Porters, IPA's, Sours like Grand Crue or Flanders Red, really just about anything...

Thanks for picking me up! I have purchased the beers I will be sending out to Terek tonight, but wont be able to ship them until Monday or possibly Tuesday...

I will pick you up Patrick. Just give me a week or so to ship. I am good for it.

As for me anything not distributed in MS AL or TN. The smaller the distribution the better.

Remind me, what do you like? Sours, stouts, etc? I'll pick this up for you if that's okay.
 
Question to the moderator of this thread. Any way we can trade homebrew with fellow members? That would be awesome! Not only for an unbiased opinion but for satisfaction and enjoyment of sampling a fellow brewers haul from hard work, just like yourself!
 
Minneapolis, MN

IPA is preferred. ( can't help stating my favorite ;) )


Are you offering to pick up @Hello's grant? Just a little confused here. Popping into the thread and stating your preference isn't how the thread works.

Maybe I missed something.
 
I'm sorry maybe it is I that missed something. I'm just going off of direction from the original/beginning post for this thread.
 
Boyd0418,

You missed the first part of how it works: Fulfill and be fulfilled. You have to choose to fulfill another's list (send to someone else) and after that, you become eligible and can post what styles you want. It's not just a free for all trade, it's more of a trade thread. I give to someone, you give to me, someone gives to you... Etc..
 
Oh, I don't think I even stated styles.
IPA, DIPA, vanilla & coffee stouts or porters...really the preference is no lagers, hells, pilsners, saisons or sours right now. Hope that's all okay and anything not distributed in NC.

I understand such. Thank you for clarification though. I was simply stating my location and style preference to start on the thread.

you also need to have been a member longer/have more posts. But this trade shoud be around a long time, so get em up there, and we will be here for you

Absolutely, i believe that it is the best way to get unbiased feedback.

However, they should be included as extras as this is meant to get lesser known breweries into other drinkers hands.

As Terek said, stick around until you meet the requirements and jump in. In the meantime I'd search out for someone whom would like to setup a trade. itrader (+) feedback goes a long way on threads as such.
