This is a modified rip-off from Two-hearted's last swap thread!
This is a Sour/Wild beer swap only!
Consider local/regional beers if you have access- use www.seekabrew.com to assist in finding beers that are outside of your recipient's distribution if possible, though this is not a requirement.
REQUIREMENTS:
-must be a sour/wild beer.
- Total volume minimum is 88 oz of sour beer.
-Sour beer only. These beers should have souring yeasts/bacteria such as Lactobacillus, Brettanomyces, acetobacter or Pediococcus. 100% Brett beers are fine.
- Extra beer, brewery swag, homebrew, or other weird regional staples are optional but encouraged. This is a very generous crowd so don't be surprised if you receive a ton of extra beer!
- While you don't need to send local beer, it is highly encouraged to check www.seekabrew.com to see what is distributed to your recipient's locale. Its always nice to try something new!
-PM me your tracking info when shipped!
EXCLUSIONS & LIMITATIONS:
Widely distributed sour beers both domestic and foreign are excluded from the 88oz minimum.
Excluded: Rodenbach, Duchess du B. Timmermans, Monk's Cafe, Petrus, Jacobins, Lindemans, etc. The only exceptions to this would be the highly desirable Cantillon, Drei Fonteinen, Hannssens, Fantome, and others.
Limited: Goose Island, Bells, New Belgium, and The Bruery beers are so widely distributed as well. These will be permitted, but only one bottle will count toward the 88oz minimum requirement. Berliner Weisse style beers can be included but only one bottle will count toward the minimum requirement.
Saison or Farmhouse style beers are excluded unless they are widely accepted to be funky, or if you obtain permission from me. Eligible saison producers currently include: Prairie, Jester King, Jolly Pumpkin, St. Somewhere, Crooked Stave, (others added pending approval)
- You are to ship your box BY Nov 14th. (I will have provide updates as needed). -PM me your tracking info when shipped!
- 100 post minimum to be eligible.
NEW MEMBER CLAUSE:
- I will allow 3 exemptions to this so as to allow some newer members entry. However, if you are one of the 3 under the 100 post minimum you will be expected to ship first. The member with your address will not ship until we have word that your package has landed safely. (If you are shipping to someone with over 100 posts you will ship as soon as you have your package ready, like normal)
To get in on the goods!:
Send me a PM that you would like to join with your shipping info. Shazaam, you’re in. I will keep all your info private (aside from the dude/lady shipping to you).
I am not going to cap this swap. I will give it a week and then I will designate who you are shipping to. After that point, I will take new people on a after that point and can arrange for a 3 way swap if someone agrees to.
Once I have my list of who ships where, I'll pm each person their address. Keep this secret, it'll make it more fun! You will then be expected to ship your beer, abiding by the rules above. Please pm me your tracking number when shipped. We will all post our awesome hauls when received and enjoy!
Also, don't forget to leave iTrader feedback and don't forget to post pics of your beer!
The forum is not responsible for anyone that abuses this swap, we all take equal risk in participating. Any and all deadbeats who do not ship beer will be sentenced to run the stone gauntlet and will be handed over to the mods for proper shaming.
Shipping
If you're new to shipping "yeast samples", please inquire here. There is a lot of collective knowledge on how to ship with ease. Individually wrap each bottle in bubble wrap, make sure there's no glass on glass action, everything should be immobilized, everything should be put into a thick garbage/compactor bag to contain any spills if beer should break. Don't ship with USPS.
Let me know if you have any questions.
