Swap-O-Rama #3, ANTI LOCAL!

[Cathedral]

Somebody has my package sitting at their side door...

 

[grze]

But to lighten the mood and give some hope, I just got this awesome box from an unknown. Someone take credit for this goodness!

mmmmm...that Vanilla Bean Buffalo Sweat sounds super delicious.

Those would be from me. I was lucky to get some of the Crow Peak. They are one of only a two or three in SD who distribute outside of a brewpub.

Edit: Oh, and the Easy Livin' summer ale is their new one that they just released.

Was it someone you've delivered to previously?

I got a package today!! I will post pics later. It also had one casualty of shipping though from what I could tell from the shards it said riser a number 3.

Ughhh I hate sitting at work wondering if there is a box of beer on my doorstep. I am a fan of the mystery of not knowing who is sending your beer until someone posts it is waiting on a doorstep....it is mine????

Nope sorry mike but, you will be upset with the casualty.

I hadn't had the Buffalo Sweat before cause I'm not a fan of stouts but had one of each and they are way tastier than I had expected.

All those good good new things to drink!! And a nice looking chocolate stout homebrew!!!! FANTASTIC!!!!!! The casualty smelled awesome though.....

 

[g-love]

Uh oh. It looks like mine didn't make it to the recipient. I just checked the tracking and it said this.
"Unauthorized alcohol shipment. Unable to complete delivery or return to sender. UPS will contact shipper. / Unauthorized alcohol shipment was discovered. Unable to deliver or return due to regulatory requirements."
What a shame. It was "out for delivery" this morning. I wonder how it was "discovered. "

F man! That sucks!

Enjoy the goods sorry, to hear that the Almanac Farmers Reserve No. 3 Sour did not make it. It's a great sour. I will try and replace that if not i will send you another sour.

That's all new stuff to me, awesome!

New package is sitting at fedex. The guy thought it would make out Wednesday or Thursday. Fingers crossed. This one is packed better, but I thought the first one was good to go.

 

[TheMan]

Finally got to get caught up on my inbox:

The count so far:
5 delivered
8 in transit
11 UNshipped

Unfortunately there have been 3 casualty boxes. This is a swap-o-rama record.

However, props need to be given to Cruizer8. Yet again an "under 100" member was the first to ship. Val214 was the first in the last round as an "under 100" (also the second to ship in this round). Keep up the good vibes you two!

Monday is a big day, 4 boxes to arrive! Tomorrow, 2 boxes to land!

damage report: I received my box back today. It made it from FedEx to the distribution center and thats it... Only lost one bomber. not too bad. Still have over 200 oz. i doubled up on bubble wrap and added peanuts.

They actually unwrapped every single beer to remove the broken one. Then re-packed it all and brought it all back to me... It just said damaged package, return to sender. Hah! Must've been a cool driver.

I'll have the wife re-ship it asap. (I'm leaving town in the morning.).

Wow, you're a lucky one. Sometimes they do this, sometimes they discard the whole thing.

Sorry it took so long to get the pics up. It took me all that time to unpack this beast! Just saw a brewery tour of new Belgium on drinking made easy and the Boulevard brews look very interesting as well.

I'm curious what the home brew is?!

Someone clam this most excellent hook up
