Do you beer traders have a SOP for shipping beer?

I really love the padded envelopes from usps. You can get them online for free. Fits 3 12oz bottles or 16oz cans. Wrap each one in bubble wrap before putting in. Then I use either crumpled newspaper or big air packs to space them out.

Definitely don't use a box that is just big enough for the beers. The times I've had breakage, I packed too tight.

Went over to Other Half today, which is always terrific, but seemed especially better with the cold rainfall.

I've never heard this method. Interesting. I always just electrical tape tops, then into a gallon size ziploc (2-3 12 oz bottles/cans per ziploc, or one bomber), then bubble wrap until the labels are a little blurry. Reinforce bottom and sides of box, put a base layer of whatever packing material I have on hand, then all the bottles into a trash bag and into the box. Fill out the box until it's tight with minimal give on the top middle when it's closed. I've never lost a soldier.

The easiest thing to do is a wine shopper tho

I like it because it's waterproof and keeps nice even stacks, rather than shite flying everywhere.

Just not my style.

I have vanilla and coffee noir and 2 Christmas bombs. I would be happy to trade them away for some of those delicious hop juices you get.

I do trade. Mainly through Reddit though. I've had alot of success and easy trades.

2BD this ole thang I found in the back of the fridge. Fiance got me something called a bespoke post for cigars. I guess it's like pop sugar for guys.

I second wine shoppers. Check your local specialty wine store to see if they will sell you their used shoppers. I get 2, 4, or 6 bottle shoppers for just a couple of bucks. If you go to a high volume place, they will only have empty cases, which I don't recommend
