I felt like landing one proprietors was a big deal. Then I see this lol
I haven't landed any, don't think they made it to NC.
Not a trade but I didn't see a beer haul thread here so .
I lost one bottle, Lagunitas Big Hairy Eyeball (kinda bummed) to the shipping gods but the rest arrived safely. Of course the labels all took a beating too but they'll dry out. Still, beer is safe.![]()
That is two bottles of Wookey and Santa's little helper, one to drink and one to cellar.

Is distro over your way really that different than Asheville? Half that stuff is available in WNC.
I suppose so. Saison Rue was $8.99 whereas they want $24 for it here. Therefore, I didn't bother to buy it in NC. Even with shipping, I saved. Wookey I've never seen nor heard of coming my way but I don't exactly have my finger on the pulse of beer news. Maui, Gubna Merlin, etc … nope, not here. Big Bad Baptist was here, I was limited to 1 bottle and it was then gone. The rest either I've never seen or cannot get here.
/shrug Maybe it's my crappy mood but I hope you don't think I'm dumb enough to spend $45 in shipping to ship beers back to myself that I could get here.I may be, but I hope not.

You're not planning to cellar a Wookey are you?
This thread is for hauls too! even stuff you buy at the liquor stations
Just got a huge box from celticdevildog. I cant thank her enough, already drinking the rio grande IPA out of my new glass. I broke my previous blue corn glass and contacted her to see if she could replace it. Now I have 2 news one so when I break the next one I have a back up!![]()

Just surprised you can't get lagaunitas (available at ingles in WNC), gubna (brewed in NC also grocery store beer), & bottle limit on the Epic (pretty much always at bottle shop). You already mentioned that Saison Rue was so expensive over your way. That' a couple bucks more than their sour stuff is over my way. Might hafta start road tripping to do your beer shopping. Do you have an account with fedex? If you print your own labels, you'll save some cash.
If you ever want me to goandpickitupformebro I'd be happy to ship you stuff.
Haha well I look forward to it then. I had never heard of it, im sure celticdevildog could send a few your wayGood Lord! That Elevated has been haunting me for over a year! I haven't been able to get one since then. It is so gooooooooooood!
I'm glad it got there safely. I literally packed it with random materials I had left over from all the Christmas gifts we bought this year. Of course, I may have been a little 'over protective' of the beer to ensure it got there unscathed.![]()
Nah, I picked these all out while back home and shipped to myself back to NC. FedEx was super funny about it saying they wouldn't make it without 3" of bubble wrap around every bottle. that told me at least one wouldn't survive. I can get it back home again, but I was bummed all the same.If you got that through the interwebs. The company should be cool about refunding you the price of the bottle. My lady got me a a nice pkg of brews from CA for xmas and one of a 4 pk came broken. The company refunded her the entire price of the 4 pack and gave her a 10% coupon for the next time she decides to buy me beer! :rockin:
Well, I was planning on one bottle to drink and one to cellar. Is it not a beer that I would cellar?You're not planning to cellar a Wookey are you?
I hope she yells at you, too!
I think the last two exchanges we've had I kind of felt like you just figured I was kind of dumb.
Dont feel bad, I think Gabe enjoys leaving people to feel this wayIf you wouldnt mind doing it again Gabe, I may need your help, or anyone else's here who knows anything about water adjustments

Definitely don't cellar Wookey Jack. It is an IPA after all. Drink it now. I mean, right now. If you're reading this response and you don't have it poured in a glass already you're doing it wrong.Well, I was planning on one bottle to drink and one to cellar. Is it not a beer that I would cellar?
Don't worry about Gabe. He likes to try to make everyone feel dumb and beneath him. Especially if you don't share the same limited taste in beer as him or if you don't tell him that his homebrew was the best thing you've ever tasted.Hey I didn't yell at you! I think the last two exchanges we've had I kind of felt like you just figured I was kind of dumb. I mean I can be, but sometimes I'd like to think I'm not super dumb.![]()
I just received these. I can't wait to try them all! Thanks ivegot2legs! View attachment 169967
