I do not send anyone anything I haven’t had 1-3 of beforehand (in that case 3, because it came in a 4-pack). my understanding from homebrewing is pasteurizing just lets it be shelf-stable longer

sending you a botanist & barrel cider felt a bit like bugs bunny trying to score on the monstars

beer study my beloved. if you’d like to grab a drink when you’re in town let me know, I will happily help send you off with more beers

I have never had armagnac, I mainly know it as the brandy you use for ortolan, but damn if I wouldn’t want to at least try a manhattan with it

bruery does seem to have decent distribution around here, and bottle logic at least *did* at some point since I’ve had a couple of their beers, but I’ll happily send beers out just to promote NC breweries (and VA/SC if they fit your taste better) regardless of any sort of return

that’s one of the highest compliments I’ve ever gotten on a beer I picked out for someone else. and yeah, burial + “it’s literally a coffee porter jr.” meant I was excited for that one when I tried it, glad you liked it too

always happy to do another beer exchange (as long as you enjoyed at least some of what I sent before). though I’m still annoyed USPS added a “weird package shape” surcharge to the poster tubes so it doesn’t make sense to do that bit again

reneged on this upon learning that the rest of the TL was drinking too. any time my mutuals are going “drunj AMA” and I’m not posting at all, it feels like the bit at the end of the chaos theory episode of Community where Jeff’s like “you all are so cringe with your ‘having fun’, none for me thanks”

Hell yeah. I’ve long since had all the bodhizafas wom sent me but those were great. SO and I will personally attest to margarita cutwaters being the devil
