A much smaller than anticipated De Garde haul...

=/ saw that they were dropping bottle limits like crazy. I was surprised they started out so high, no wonder that happened, lol.

 

[coldcrash]

Friends of mine just got back from a little beercation and were thoughtful enough to bring back a little something for me.


And this is today's bottle shop visit.

Nothing Earth shattering, but I'll be surprised if any of these survive the weekend.

I know. Pretty weird that they would allow cases after the last few releases.

Anyone have experience with FedEx reporting damage at time of delivery and retaining the package? I assume it was the heat in SC that did the bottle in. Hope to find out tonight.

 

[Remmy]

Yep. They're probably drinking that **** as we speak.

I had the driver bring in a package to me(posted in here a couple weeks ago with pics) and ask if I wanted to accept it or not because it was leaking and actually soaked. I accepted it, but he still marked it down as damaged on delivery. Mine was caused by the worst packing job I've ever seen, not by weather, but I have seen a couple people with exploded cans on facebook thinking it was heat.

He definitely does now, that package made my office smell like a brewery the rest of the day. Luckily I didn't have any more patients left, but it made me want to crack one open SOOOOO bad!

I had an issue last year where the box was damaged and the guy was getting ready to put it back on the truck to return. Luckily I caught him before hand and signed for it damaged. Only one bottle and one glass were busted but it was indeed wet

 

[absoluthamm]

This is why I advocate the double box method. When something breaks inside the inner box, it's contained when that box is inside of a garbage bag/can liner and the outside box will be completely dry.

Trade with bsyoung, thanks for the hookup! Hopefully FedEx comes through and you get most of what I sent. We will get it all sorted out when FedEx updates the tracking info with the resolution.

I might have to send you stuff to get you to send him Surly stuff which was in the box and you get Gose in return.

Will do, depends on FedEx now. I don't need anything in return. So a 2.5 way trade?

 

[DisturbdChemist]

LC4 should sit for a while down here. It has in the past but not sure about now. 2 is a start but $19 a piece is going to stop me from buying more

 

[Brewbien]

Trade from skeezerpleezer. My first CR since tasting it at last years GABF, pretty excited. Also, got my top beer want in BA Speedway. Thanks man!

 

[thatjonguy]

How long should I be waiting before calling FedEx to see what they are doing with the package. The status hasn't been updated since yesterday. Still says handling per shipper instructions. No action needed.

I'd call now, sounds like they're waiting for your instructions

Is Sucre worth the price?
