Never done this before. The event is 7/26 but they want all beer in by 6/26.
I only keg so this seems like a head scratcher. I use a beer gun for bottling from keg. I assume the beer will get warm during shipping. Not sure when they refrigerate it.
IPA seems like most the freshness would be gone by then -- around 5 weeks. 1 to keg/carb and 4 in shipping.
What am i missing here? Am i crazy that it seems like a waste of time shipping an IPA? It would be oxidized by then? I have a hard enough time avoiding oxygen via kegging. And also the carbonation is concerning
