@Louz
That is correct, once @TBC confirms tracking information supplied by @jturman35 then he is available to be granted. At that point he provide his beer style preference, and then you can grant him supplying beers of that style. After you provide tracking details to him you are then available to be granted.
Cautionary note for 1st timers: At some point you will have a package confiscated by whichever delivery service you use. You should know that it is illegal to ship alcohol without the proper shipping permits in place which you won't have, so proceed with caution. The repercussions are nonexistent though, so don't worry. No need to ask how I know. Furthermore, you should be prepared with shipping a second package in the event your first one disappears...perhaps that's a "goes without saying" thing, but best to know what you are getting into ahead of time.
Packaging information: ALWAYS line your package with a trash bag that is tied and tape shut to prevent leakage. For packaging the beer, we are all a bit different, but a few commonalities. Your beer should be packaged in some kind of "waterproof" barrier such as a ziplock bag or a foodsaver bag. While not waterproof, per say, it helps in the event you do have a minor leak (foodsaver would be better, I think, in this case). It should then be bubble wrapped (or similar) to avoid it from hitting something else causing one or both vessels to rupture. Finally, you should put something in the box that makes a rattling sound to prevent the sloshing sound of the beer. Some people use jars of pennies, candies, or both
Final thought: The LOT thread becomes the wormhole for the FotD trades...you'll get sucked in. It is natural, don't fight it. It's a great crowd over there, and many of the same (if not all of the same) go back and forth between LOT and FotD trades. You've been warned
@Louz TwistedGray is a great guy. If your ever fortunate enough to grant him he loves IPAs and DIPAs.

I'd love to get in on this too. If I understand this correctly, someone would have to grant jturman35 after he ships to TBC.
I don't have 100 posts, but I've been a member for awhile. I have plenty of Delaware breweries at my disposal. I would be more than happy to put something together for jturman35
Soon as TBC gets his package I’ll take some Delaware beer!
Yes sir. Message me what your looking for and I'll get on it!Soon as TBC gets his package I’ll take some Delaware beer!
Don't we all@Louz TwistedGray is a great guy. If your ever fortunate enough to grant him he loves IPAs and DIPAs.
Anyone looking for beers from Washington state or the Pacific NW hit me up. I have never traded before but would love to open that door. I pretty much like anything.
Thanks @TwistedGray I caught that right after I posted. I will get a selection of NW IPA's together and @Louz in the next few days. PM me your info please @LouzYou may want to go through a few pages of this thread to see how it works. The guy above you is waiting to be granted, so you would have to send him beers based on his preference (IPA/NEIPA). Once you have shipped his beers you are then up to be granted, and the next person will send you beers based on your preference. Go a few pages back to get a general idea of what is typically shipped and received.
-Enjoy
Whoever grants @Louz would be next, and technically @jimyson was first to ask Louz what they wanted. So, technically if Jimson wants he would grant Louz and you could then grant Jimyson which means the next person would grant you. Does that make sense?
Side note - Do you have any trades on here where you sent something and/or received something? Or do you have any members on here who know you and/or could vouch? If so, you will inevitably end up here (click me).
No I have never traded before and don't have anyone to vouch for me. I'm sure there are members of my homebrew club on here but none of them trade either. Just figured this was a good way to get beer from other areas of the country to try.

Yes, the LOT is a great place to start. Welcome to the club! @TwistedGray is trying to lure you into some other trade threads where we typically require some trading references or positive feedback from iTrader since we don’t require you to ship first like this thread does.
If you trade in here and enjoy the experience, check out the FotD threads.
It is, and the thread I linked is as well. That's more regular than this thread, but without some trading history you have to start here (their is some leniency over there).
As soon as Louz confirms address you can ship to him and then pay up your preferences. At that point you can get in on the upcoming trade I linked to and mentioned earlier. So, in theory you could get in on that round.
If you haven't traded beer (specifically, shipped beer) make sure you do your due diligence to see how people package and ship to avoid getting caught. Plenty of posts about this, but I'd happily give you the run down if needed.
Thanks @TwistedGray, I thought you might be kicking me out of your club instead of inviting me in. As far as packaging goes, I have shipped beer to competitions before without any issues. I understand wrapping in plastic bags or vacuum sealing, and I read in the thread about putting something that makes noise in the box. Is there anything else I am missing?
I should have some great IPA's to offer coming from the Hop Mecca Washington State.
