Dec 2014	wchesser	Great little trade with Levi in response to an ISO he put up for some great Surly and other MN goods. Easy dealing, great super proactive communication, and quick shipping. Pleasure to deal with and would love to trade again sometime.
Dec 2013	thome50	Levi sent a HUGE box of MN/WI goodness as well as some highly sought after sour/wild homebrew! The homebrew is definitely the highlight here if you have had the pleasure of trying it. Thanks again!
May 2013	tom10101	Levi sent me a box with a couple of long time wants (including Framboise for a Cure and R&D Gueuze)! Communication was great, packing was perfect too. The box had a problem at Canadian customs (not Levi’s fault at all), but he was able to redirect it to a US address so that I can pick it up. He’s a great guy and I would highly recommend trading with him! Merci!
Nov 2012	jbickus	Easily set up trade, fast turn around, and great packaging for some Surly Wet.

Oct 2012	Piason	Great 1st trade with Levi, 3 fresh Pliny & 1- Aroma Coma for 4 pak of Wet and 1 Bender & 1 Coffee Bender. And both the extras included on each end turned out to be winners also! Let’s do it again or if your in the SF Bay area let me know as I live in the East Bay & can meet you at Beer Rev! Cheers
Sep 2012	timfoolery	Great trade with Levi involving a T25, Figaro, two FW for a Kate and some Darkness vintages. Unfortunately, the email system was being changed over at time of trade, but everything was still executed perfectly. It was a pleasure my friend. Cheers!

Mar 2012	kmweaver	Another great box from Levi: Surly Abrasive and Bender, 2x NG Raspberry Tart and Belgian Red and Apple Ale, a couple of Fulton beers, Leinenkugel Big Eddy, and a bottle of Olvalde Farm’s Auroch’s Horn (on Rhubarb!). Thanks, dude!
Feb 2012	brystmar	Ran into Levi randomly at Toronado SF. He happily chipped in for an impromptu Cable Car vertical with us, then handed me a bottle of Darkness (knowing I’d never had it before) asking for nothing in return on his way out. Then unexpectedly did the same for a friend of mine stuck in Minneapolis for work! A generous RB’er!!
Dec 2011	Glouglouburp	Another trade with Levi, still as pleasant to deal with as ever. I got a few homebrews, a FiftyFifty Rouge Baril Baltique, a New Glarus Laughing Fox and more importantly a Russian River Framboise for a Cure 2011... to complete my two year vertical!! :) Thank-you so much Levi for this smooth trade.
Nov 2011	rayl101	Just received the box from my 2nd trade with Levi. Asked for a couple bottles of Darkness, and what does he do? Ships the Darkness, a Terrapin 22oz xtra, a couple of killer homebrews, and to top it off a sweet goblet from Town Hall! Way too generous! Thanks Levi!
Nov 2011	kmweaver	Bottle of Surly Darkness and three cans o’ Surly Wet, safe and sound. Styro shipper. Thanks, Levi!

Sep 2011	Maltzilla	Good trade. Took a while to get rolling and then to complete (latter being mostly on my end). But awesome box from Levi with tasty goodies from Minnesota and some pretty damn good homebrew to boot!
Sep 2011	madvike	Levi answered my call for some Surly Five and threw in a couple extras, including his famed (by me) berliner homebrew. Easy trade from a great guy...thanks Levi!
Jul 2011	phredrik	Levi sent me six stellar brews. Pannepot Wild, The Dark Knight, Odell Friek, Ivan The Terrible, Cuvee De Tomme and last but not least RR Beatification B2. I got him to ship it to my friend’s house, and eveything was delivered in great shape. His box arrived in just 5 days. Great communication, no misunderstandings or anything. You won’t regret trading with Levi, he’s the real deal.
Jun 2011	kmweaver	Levi returned fire with a huge box: NG Smoked Rye(1), Apple Ale(2), IIPA(4), Moon Man(6), Two Women(4); Tallgrass Halcyon (2), and Surly Bitter Brewer(4). Yeah! Thanks again, Levi!
Mar 2011	thome50	Levi sent two amazing boxes full of our agreed upon NG including a four pack of Apple Ale that no one seemed to have at this time of year for some Alpine Expo and Pliny. He even put in a bottle of Darkness ’10 AND a 2008 Pannepot! Insane extras. Thanks again!

Nov 2010	thickfreakness	Levi answered my final desperate attempt to get Surly WET. He sent along 8 WETs and tossed in a Darkness 2010 as an extra! Very generous trader and extremely easy to deal with!
Oct 2010	madvike	Met up with Levi for a Darkness Day tasting, and swapped a 4-pack of Capital Weizen Doppelbock for a 4-pack of SurlyFest. Easy peasy, and then Levi proceeded to share one of the rarest beers I’ll ever be privileged to try. Thanks Levi!
