| Sep 2014 | phaleslu | Mat sent a well-packed box with 9 bottles in it - all 9 of them on my Wants list. My wife doesn’t put this much thought into my Christmas presents. Holy moly. He’s set an impossibly high standard for the return box. I might just have to delete my account, cut and run. Cheers, Mat! |
|
| Aug 2014 | cubs | m@ sent me a limited bottle out of the kindness of his heart. Really nice guy. |
|
| Jun 2014 | puzzl | Foppa cold-smoked me some wheat flour for use in bread making. Badass! Thanks! |
|
| May 2014 | DietPepsican | 10 pounds of kick as smoked things all expertly packed. A simple thanks is not enough, this stuff rules. |
|
| Apr 2014 | CLevar | Whatever Mat sent me tastes an awful lot like amazing smoked cheese and bourbon dill lox, which can’t be real because RULES. In any case, Mat is awesome, great packing and very patient as I have been slow to get him his return box. |
|
| Apr 2014 | TheHOFF43 | Mat is one of the cooler people on Ratebeer. He hooked up a large group of us after we badgered him into it and good lord did he come through. 1/2 my beer fridge is now full. Packed better than you could believe, communication was excellent. Thanks Foppa! |
|
| Apr 2014 | Homer321 | Mat rocked it out with some awesome cheese set it up real nice with a styro shipper and dry ice to keep it nice and cold. I think I’ve worked through most varieties and they are just amazing. Truly a rockin guy! |
|
| Mar 2014 | phaleslu | Wow, did Mat ever deliver on this latest box. Took care of 5 long-time wants, packed like a pro, sent quickly, communicated frequently. Everything looks fresh and delicious. I could not ask for anything more. This guy is the best. Cheers, Mat! |
|
| Mar 2014 | Bacterial | Quick and easy trade with Mat, who hooked me up with a bottle of MILF. Awesome trader - almost as epic as his smoked cheese making skills! |
|
| Aug 2013 | Yonkers65 | mat hooked me up wid a big’ol bag of pork rub as well as a 6ixer of Expidition which was indeed an expedition on his end. bonus’d a nice selection of locals as well as some home-spun rub to boot. cheers mat! |

|

|
| Mar 2013 | 48FanInCali | Mat hooked me up big time with some older BCBS vintages I have been trying to track down. Included some real nice bonuses as well. Easy communication and follow through. Great trader. Looking forward to the next one. Thanks again Mat. |

|
| Feb 2013 | TheBeerSommelier | Mat hooked up one of my coolest trades in recent memory - a box full o’ local, KC bbq sauces! Sweet! Literally - I like sweet sauce on my ’cue. ;-) Thanks again dude. |
|
| Feb 2013 | StFun | Killer trade with Mat. Sent me a kick ass assortment of Kansas City BBQ sauces and rub. Can’t wait to fire up the smoker in a month or so and start using these. Probably more excited to get this box than most boxes of beer I’ve gotten. Thanks! |
|
| Feb 2013 | BlowOffTube | Got a great box of some KC BBQ sauce and rubs. Good communication and I was glad I could help in the investigation. Looking forward to doing another trade! |
|
| Jan 2013 | SHIG | I’ve chatted with Mat for a couple years here at RB. Out of the blue he tells me that he has a bottle of my ultra super want, but never thought I would get Free State Owd Macs. Shipping was fantastic, I received it promptly and was very well packaged. I truly owe him one and will be trading again shortly after my trip for sure! |
|
| Jan 2013 | MacBoost | Awesome trade with Mat. He hooked me up with a couple BA Nebraska rarities, MOaS, and a couple of huge wants list items that I wasn’t expecting. All with great communication and a quick shipment. A+ |
|
| Jan 2013 | Ernesto987 | Great trade I’m enjoying the beer now! Great trade. Quick and easy 1 for 1 and I got to try something I normally wouldn’t have. THanks a lot!!! |
|
| Jan 2013 | daknole | An old trading favorite of mine sends me 2 great bottles. Truly a class act! |
|
| Jan 2013 | GodOfThunder | I’m not leaving Foppa trade feedback for the unsolicited bottle of Owd Macs he sent me. I’m just not going to do it. |
|
| Jan 2013 | phaleslu | Mat hooked me up with possibly my longest-running want since joining RB, Owd Mac’s. He used a beer gun to flush the bottle with CO2 before filling & capping it. He then put the bottle in a vacuum-sealed pouch, surrounded it in bubble tape, & boxed it up before sending it to me. Really put a lot of work into it. World-class trader, world-class individual. Cheers, Mat! |
|
| Dec 2012 | thome50 | Mat once again hooked me up with a growler of Jaipur Jalapeño Ale! 3rd growler! Then he just threw in another growler of Nebraska IPA, Bourbon County Brand Stout and three other pepper beers! Insane box! Thanks again! |
|
| Oct 2012 | Puddintane | Mat’s is f’n awesome. Not only as he insanely patient with me but he also threw in some completely unnecessary extras. Everything was centered around a growler of much anticipated Jalapeno beer, but also included some Nebraska brewing and Upstream rarities. I feel as though I owe him another box... |
|
| Sep 2012 | GodOfThunder | Yet another box from Mat! This time, completely unsolicited, and full of awesome Kansas City BBQ sauces. I don’t have the heart to tell him Carolina BBQ sauce is superior. He also threw in a growler from Jaipur! Great trader! |
|
| Sep 2012 | FlacoAlto | Awesome, I won foppa78’s 5 year contest. Sent me a mix of want list beers and new brewery release beers that I can’t wait to try. |
|
| Aug 2012 | thome50 | More jalapeno beer from Mat! Thanks for jumping through some hoops to get this once again. |
|
| Aug 2012 | GodOfThunder | Mat sent me another box. It was awesome, as usual. I like Mat, and think he is a cool dude. I am happy to trade with him on a semi-regular basis. |
|
| Mar 2012 | thome50 | Mat came through with a growler of jalapeno beer! Even bonused an awesome beer. Thanks again! |
|
| Feb 2012 | DietPepsican | Foppa hooked me up with a growler of Jaipur Jalapeño Ale, a definite whale of a beer for me. Great packing and fast shipping, thanks a ton. |
|
| Jan 2012 | PMgep | Great start on my trading career here on Ratebeer. Mat sent me a Dark Lord, a Surly Five and a Black betty and two really nice imperial stouts as bonus. Everything was very well packed (three boxes? yay!) with bubble wrapping and packing peanuts. Will hopefully trade again with him. |
|
| Dec 2011 | tyler_mn | LOOOOOOOONG overdue feedback for Mat. We were paired up in last summer’s NP10. He sent a sick box including some awesome Upstream growlers and limited release 750’s. One of the growlers was a leaker... not that big of a deal. So... fast forward to Nov. and I find another box from Mat with not one but TWO replacement growlers. A.W.E.S.O.M.E. |
|
| Nov 2011 | lithy | Mat knocked my socks off in this one. I was just looking for a Boulevard White IPA and Nommo Dubbel. He added in a Saison-Brett, Telegraph Reserve Wheat, Lucky Bucket Certified Evil, and a Prototype Stout. Looking forward to working my way through these for sure. Everything shipped quickly and safely in a styro shipper. |
|
| Oct 2011 | cubs | Just received an absolutely amazing box from Mat. Rye on Rye, Blvd Saison, De Dolle Oerbier Special Reserva, Struise Ardmonnik Earthmonk, Nebraska Black Betty, and others from my want list plus some amazing bonuses: North Coast Old Rasputin XII, Scuttlebutt Tripel 7, Founders Nemesis 2009, and more! It doesn’t get any better than this! One of the most generous dudes out there! |
|
| Sep 2011 | ragesaq | foppa78 rocked my want list in Near Perfect 10 v5 trade! 2010 750ml bourbon barrel quad, 2011 750ml saison brett, 375ml consecration batch 6, 500ml? rapsutin xii, 330ml pannepot 2010. Big props for being awesome in a near-blind trading format. |
|
| Jul 2011 | jconrick1 | Did a second trade with Mat in May 2011 and he once again blew me away! Sent me a whole box of amazing beer but the centerpiece of this trade was a bottle of the 2011 3F Dark Lord and a growler of the illusive and delicious 3F Zombie Dust - shared with friends to rave reviews during Seattle Beer Week 2011. Again an amazing packing job, and very generous trader and with extras too. No doubt we |
|
| Jul 2011 | jconrick1 | Great trade with Mat back in March - sorry it took me so long to leave feedback. He sent me several bottles of great Nebraska Brewing Co beer (Black Betty, Apricot Au Poivre Saison, and Menage a Trois) as well as a growler of their new IPA and growler of the Hop God. This guy packs a box so nicely it’s a work of art. Generous extras! Definitely will trade with Mat again. |
|
| Jul 2011 | GodOfThunder | Mat sent an awesome unsolicited box out of the blue! A couple bottles of Boulevard Saison Brett for my wife (her favorite!) and a few other goodies for me! What an awesome guy! |
|
| May 2011 | phaleslu | Mat not only hooked me up with 2 extra DLD tickets so my pals could go, he threw in a Doodle Dubbel, Upstream Grand Cru (!!!), and Nebraska New Oak-Aged Rye IPA (!!!). World-class trade from a world-class dude. Look forward to sharing many more beers with you in the future, Mat. |
|
| May 2011 | LtDan | Quick one bottle dld trade. Mat is a good man who is my new midwest go to trader. |
|
| Mar 2011 | GodOfThunder | Worked a trade for some Hunahpu’s for my RateBeer Chatz buddy, Mat. Great trader! Can’t wait to trade with him again. |
|
| Mar 2011 | cubs | Unbelievable in person trade with Mat in KC. He hooked up with a couple of retired Avery Barrel Series beers, a Pannepot 2007, a couple of hard to get Midnight Sun beers, among others. He bonused me a ton of amazing and hard to get stuff- Weyerbacher Fifteen, Weyerbacher Old Heathen, a bourbon barrel Rocky’s Revenge, a couple of harder to get Founders and Bells. What an amazing and generous dude. |
|

He got me Lagunitas Hop Stoopid and Little Sumpin’ Extra and threw in a Wilco Tango Foxtrot (nice bonus for a Wilco fan, even if it’s not named for the band) for a Red Poppy. His KC crew was one of the nicest, coolest, most generous groups I’ve ever met at a beer event; I hope to cross MO and hang out with them once I move back to STL. Thanks, Mat� |
|
