B, did the GOT version deliver on all the hype? Everyone was looking for that one.


It's pretty good, but nothing extraordinary. Glad to have tried it though.

...and heady by a mile. It really ruined things for me. after having the perfect IIPA all others are just a disappointment.


I could've sworn you favored Pliny slightly. Dunno.

I don't remember thinking Heady was a ton better. And I'm not a huge Pliny fanboy.

Whats up with this? From Blackwells here in SF.

I can’t beat SoCal’s heat, but a bottle that I think is fairly exotic is the Westvleteren 12 (330 ml, $30). I only have a few of these, imported directly for us, no label (just the cap) Trappists style. It is one bottle per order, and preference will be given to full 12-pack orders.


$360/12 pack...lol.

Agree with this. Perhaps its my affinity for Pliny but all the same Heady is a GREAT world class beer.

never had a problem
didnt read much further but...

It's illegal to ship alcohol with the USPS. With FedEx/UPS you're supposed to say it's alcohol and have someone 21+ sign for it. That costs extra though so ill sign up for that after entering the proper weight and checking off the residential box :winkwink:

Ill take breaking a company rule all day before messing with federal laws.

If you split that 12 up you might be able to make more off it. Need a certificate of authenticity though.

Say you are shipping "glassware", you have no idea what the liquid is. Those bottles are important though.

I remember tasting Pliny, noting "how could it get any better than this" then saying "wow". Instant top 5 on an island beer.

Just tell them it's yeast samples. You're not really lying.

If I had to go into te store to weigh an ship I'd say homemade olive oil. If I ha to go further I'd say my grandmother makes it and my cousin misses it.

By having a personal account I can weigh my box a bit lighter than fedex/ups would. They haven't got me yet.


And if it breaks, you possibly have Feds to answer to, not some underachiever making $13/hour.

Well Ders, if B is willing to work you a deal he is your man.


If it doesn't let me know, I live off old Jeff, just in that bastard stepchild land known as Prairieville.
