Don’t hesitate to trade with Naven. I just got my box of beer and it’s great. I can’t wait to start sampling them. We agreed on a price limit and I had a few specific brews I was looking for let him pick the rest. Speedway Stout, couple of Lost Abbeys, Pliny the Elder and a very, very nice Barrel Aged Old Stock Ale. THANKS Naven.
