Fellowship of the Drink XIV: Shipping with the Enemy

[jimyson]

How often does Doug come away with these shipments? Should I hedge my bet and ship two smaller boxes rather than one larger box?

Nah. Pack well and make sure there are no leaks from the box even if something breaks. Double box, ziplock, pack so stuff doesn’t shift. Good.

 

[jimyson]

Oh, and don’t ship to @TwistedGray. He’s a marked man.

 

[HopsNTails]

I guess it's not really up to me in the end. Hopefully he doesn't like bud light lime or keystone light. (That's what the bulk of my offer is at this point)

He’ll drink anything without hops. Sorry about your luck, bub.

 

[jimyson]

As long as anything FW comes to me, we’re good @HopsNTails.

 

[jimyson]

Damn, I need to get this participant list sorted so we can see what losers are missing from this round. Peer pressure usually wins in the end.

Busch if you have it

 

[dpinette2]

Great, thanks for all the info

If you add in some Red Dog or Ice House... I choose you now!

 

[GnenieGone]

Great news! Happy and excited to partake!

I know i’m going to get made fun of, but.....What is the best method for shipping?

Grab a chair and open a beer. Packing 101....

- Tape bottle caps to limit leaking.
- Vacuum seal all items.
- Use Home Depot Extra Strong Small size boxes.
- place a large thick garbage bag inside box.
- use small bubble wrap around all items.
- for bottles, along with bubble wrap, cut a thin piece of cardboard for between bottles.
- Layer each level, usually can get 3 levels with the boxes, by cutting a piece of carboard the size of the box and use large bubblewrap to creat a new "floor".
- tie plastic bag then layer more bubble wrap so when pressing on top, it pops back a little.
- tape the edges then tape the fucck out of it.

Was thinking about splurging on a couple 40s of OE or Mickeys to get more bites

...or just wait til this guy ships something and reuse his boxes and packaging.

No promises, but one of these may find their way into my offer

Also, damnit, I’m in this round too.

[Thorrak]

@Thorrak

I'm out for this round, unfortunately. I have plans this weekend & next, then am traveling over the course of the following two weeks. No time to either scrounge up or ship an offer.

Hope to be back in for the following round, though! As the weather gets cooler I anticipate golfing less, so more time spent in breweries.

 

[TwistedGray]

I've got time to procrastinate
We'll see

 

[GnenieGone]

Well, going to PhP tomorrow and they're release multiple beers...you'll be getting a very early offering!

C’mon, you slackers! Get in on it! I didn’t think I’d do this round, being that I haven’t even shipped last round... (sorry @6midgets !) But that’s no reason to leave the Fellowship! We have a responsibility, no, a DUTY to participate!

Plus, let’s break @PianoMan’s record! [emoji12]
