I have morals, never said how low they were...

On a side note, it sounded like some members were worried about the same person getting their name multiple times. I recall indytruks package to me and I would be thrilled to get more stuff from him. Also, from the other two swaps. I am pretty sure they could all send even more variety should they draw my name again. If someone gets the same guy two times, I think I let it be. But if it happens more than that ill try adjust things.

Also, I am headed on a small vacation in a month. Thanks to this thread and the maw thread, I know what beers to look for that I really liked!

What's the point to hoarding treasures to yourself? Beer gets better when enjoyed with friends...even if its friends you have never met in person before. I think this thread is about not only trying new things, but being generous in that regard.
 
I actually have a good beer karma story to follow up on that.
Philly Beer Week that just passed, me and a group of friends went to a bar that I knew was featuring a cask of John Courage RIS. I had the chance to sample this while I was with my wife last year in London. My baby daughter was just born a week before the event...so in order to generate some good karma, after Jim Robertson gave his speech about the history of the RIS, I told our bar tender that whatever 200.00 would buy, the people who order that next round of that beer was on me. The owner of the bar heard the story and matched the amount.
Hopefully when she gets older and her old man teaches her the value of good beer and good friends, that karma will come back to her.

If you come to TX let me know, we will grab a beer!
 
I did a price comparison to see which was cheaper. In this case, FedEx was slightly cheaper. I sent a package to Hawaii a few weeks back that was remarkably cheaper via FedEx then UPS would of been.
 
Got home to a destroyed porch, box was so big it destroyed my whole sidewalk, this is what I walked up to!

6 nice big bombers of tastiness. Super excited for all of this, but the Troegs, BRAAAIINS, and the Peppercorn beer seem really awesome.

And if you are wondering how you are supposed to do extras, apparently BeermeDuffMan has it down pat. Gotta be as if not more excited for the extras. The Consecration, oh how I've wanted that beer, so so so badly.

That's a nice haul!
 
Don't sweat the pint glass man. I'll score you another. Thought I had it packed in well enough. Looks like the box o tasty lakes didn't fare too well either.
 
That was a nice looking pint glass. To bad it didn't make it. How is troegenator? Is it seasonal?
