John sent the agreed upon 04/04/04 and 05/05/05 from Stone. He also sent the Mikkeller Beer geek breakfast as promised. And then he went way overboard and sent 4 extras all of which should have been on my wantlist. John was an awesome communicator and fantastic trader. I hope you all take care of him in future trades. He deserves lots of beer karma.

Anytime it takes a half hour to de-bubblewrap a half dozen bottles, you know the beers been packed up right. No exception here as John double bagged a nice selection of favorites (Buckeye 76, Dogwood Excellent Adventure, Yulesmith), and pleasant surprises (GI-Bourbon Stout, Founders wheat). Awesome communication, fast and easy, and very accomadating. Great trade.

OK Im two floors away from my beer cellar. But this box of beer ruled, it had no less than 3 unnanounced extras, Founders Breakfast, Speedway Stout, and the extras were good stuff not just random. I wish I had them all in the top of memory but suffice it to say you dont really need to know, you just need to know if this guy wants to trade with you DO IT

John delivered a surprise package of 11 beers. AN assortment of beers from Jolly Pumpkin, Southern Tier, Weyerbackers, Sothampton, Colmbus, Great LAkes and Founders.
The box was expertly double boxed and packed so that it took me nearly 15 minutes to unpack the beers.
