In a freakin bomb proof box, Alan sends the agreed upon St. Somewhere Lecto and Saison and a Fish Tale 10 squared. I told him to send some locals that I haven’t rated to = out the trade. He sends me a freakin Westy 12 (are you kidding me!?!), Olfabrikken Columbus, Lagunitas Undercover, Holy Mackerel, Orange Blossom Honey and an Otto’s Double D. One helluva trader. Excellent communication, et

SoLan sent me 2-Fantome Chocolat, 2-Fantome Circus. Extra goodies in the form of 1-Speedway Stout & 1-Dogfish Head Fort. Everything was packaged securely and arrived in great shape. I would highly suggest trading with Alan because he has great access to an enormous selection of fine beers and will facilitate a quick turnaround on your shipment. Thanks for everything Alan.

Alan passed off an Apis Póltorak Jadwiga, Cantillon Lou Pepe Framboise and a St Feuillien Cuvée de Noël at a friday night tasting at the store in Orlando. I think I sampled about 20 beers of perhaps 50!!! served. What a bonus!!!! Saved me from D’World for a night too. Alan also helped me pick out a few winters for poolside.
