Message Jashiu beers 1404 º places 21 º 13:30 Sun 2/26/2017 After a busy weekend away from home and PC it’s time for a quick sit down and a sum up of what arrived in the beer mail from derA. The list is from the right to left: 1. https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/trois-dames--free-will-brett-ipa/462389/ under 10 ratings. This one I have had a pleasure to try already. What a great beer. Review coming shortly and will ask all the guys who have tried it with me to put in a word on RB as well. 2. https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/trois-dames--jester-king--crooked-stave-cerveza-sin-frontera/330383/ I am so anxious to try this one it’s making me crazy! 3. https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/trois-dames--stormanchor-ubergrenade/329433/ 4. https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/trois-dames--stormanchor-good-morning-ipa--vic-secret/481939/ again under 10 ratings, only 3 here! 5. https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/trois-dames-foret-noire/210947/ top50 fruit beer! 6. https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/trois-dames--blackwell-grisette/391538/ 7. https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/trois-dames-saison-brett/343162/ 8. https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/la-nebuleuse-thank-you-brew/483412/ under 10 ratings - 1 rating! 9. https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/523-this-be-epic/487723/ under 10 ratings 10. https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/cinq-4000-sour-power-apricot/446150/ under 10 ratings - 1 rating! 11. https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/bfm-degustator-2016/462371/ under 10 ratings - 5 ratings! 12. https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/bfm-abbaye-de-saint-bon-chien-2015/407034/ - a candidate for a bit of aging according to derA 13,14,15 were homebrews from Andreas, they all look amazing! There were also some delicious marzipan cookies and two chocolates, one of which was apparently made with the addition of malts! Some interesting bottle caps were also added to the shipment as well (I have requested some) Last but not least there was a letter added that added the cherry on top of the whole package I have to repeat, I have received beers so perfectly fitting my request I am totally amazed. I can’t wait to share them all with my local craftbeer friends! Thanks again Andreas!

Message derA beers 92 º places 106 º 03:38 Tue 2/28/2017 Originally posted by Jashiu ... I have to repeat, I have received beers so perfectly fitting my request I am totally amazed. I can’t wait to share them all with my local craftbeer friends! Thanks again Andreas! Thank you very much for the positive feedback, Jan! I am happy that all of the bottles have survived the journey to Poland. The number of ratings of some of the beers has increased somewhat since I sent the package to you, most notably because I shared some bottles with anstei and SinH4. 523 This be Epic was not even on ratebeer when I mailed the package... I hope that you can share some of the less rated ones with your rating group, since beers from 523, La Nebuleuse, Storm & Anchor and Cing 4000 only very rarely leave Switzerland, which is a shame.
