For every homebrew that turns out with a wow factor there are as many that dont. Even some that are downright putrid. See also: dirty pennies and rust

adam, any word on the beer?
also, im going to buy some bottle shipping containers so i can finally ship this beer to you
also, make sure dan gets 6 abyss and 6 of the blacke buttes i still need to locate and buy

WAT

FAM WAS HERE AS I TOLD YOU

FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUU

Me and gull both laughed and thought you would wakeup at like midnight clearly being able to sleep again cuz old

Also, it was 10/12 with 11 on the desk ready

It was confiscated. Before they send me another cease letter im gonna get a second box out to you tomorrow. I am fairly certain I will clearly be getting the other one back.

I have 1 remaining 12 bottle shipper that ill send to you. However, the loss of that box means I dont have another bottle of DFH 120 to send you and ill need to go buy another 1-liter growler to get you some of my collab beer. I am clearly terribly upset, its the price we pay to do this sort of thing. At least the box didnt contain anything uber rare that could clearly be replaced.

If you have a whole box to direct at Dan, you might want to cut me out of the picture and send directly to him.

was probably officer beatin

gonna see what kind of fancy shit i can get at wegmans tomorrow

Sorry Joe, box isnt going to get out to you tomorrow. I had to go to the borough meeting tonight to discuss commercial zoning for the poop brewery. I was there much longer than anticipated and just dont have it in me to start rooting through the basement.

no worries

wait, are you really starting the poop brewery?

Moderation!

pliz hire me

im great with small biz

Yes but the name poop brewery isnt gonna fly for obvious reasons. It is bare minimum a year before I will get responses to the endless paperwork to make it official.

adam, i cant stress how awesome this is. and if you ever need a drunk to sleep on your back porch please let me know, i have excellent credentials.

I will always accept volunteers who dont mind being compensated with beer which can then lead to the porch sleepery.

In other news. I have another styro shipper sitting here for you. However, I need to see if I can rebuy some of the things i sent you last time that went awol. Unless you just want me to package up things that I already have in my possession... but if thats the case I would prefer to send you things you never had before and that might end up being a lengthy conversation

Hey joe, do you like beer?
Yes adam, I like beer
Do you have anything special you like or want alot
I donno man I just want some beer

i considered a reply similar to this, but then decided that adam would get on vent sometime between now and the rapture and we could converse

Heres a better idea, im gonna phone shop with you on the line. It is my intention to clean up the cellar over the weekend. Once I have things organized I can just start barking things out and you can give me the yay or nay as to your interest in tryin whatever I call out.

and if that doesnt work for you, your getting nothing but zapata bot

i can drink my own piss too!

if you wanna call me that will work too, whatever works best.

...ihave4bottlesinmybasement...

popped open a jubel, much better this time than when i had one probably over a year ago now. combination of being used to bigger beers and the age i'd assume

i think they have aged awesomely

think i still have 5 or so

are we talking about jubel the once every 10 years brew or jubel ale?

i sent mike some jubel when it was out

Also, it needs to be said since I cant hide the frustration anymore...

ive tried to play the whole lost package to joe situation as calm cool and collected as possible. but the more i dwell on this the more pissed i become. I used a fucking beer/wine styrofoam shipper that was fucking designed to do this job. individually wrapped every fucking bottle AND filled the air voids with crumbled newspaper

how the fuck did this go awol unless someone knew what it was based on size/weight. last time something like this happened, i at least got the box back when there was breakage. i hope the mother fucker who is drinking your black tuesday this weekend gets alcohol poisoning

be patient with me joe. ill get you another bottle. if clearly from last year, the new batch is coming out soon. ill send that one seperately in its own box

tbh this is the first time i even considered the black tuesday that was in there. what does the tracking info say? what type of exceptions are stated?
and dont beat yourself up, at some point in time ill get to try black tuesday. either ill be rich enough to join the reserve society and fly down there for releases or ill drink your pee.

i dont write down a hard copy of my tracking numbers, i just save them in my shipping profile. i also dont ask them for receipts when i drop them off since they are automatically loaded to my profile. (that all changes now)

this one was late even loading into my profile by 3 days. nothing even appeared as the norm; no announcement of item, no tendered at location, nothing. it went right to "shipping exemption" return to facility for inspection

i still havent recieved a notice about the contents and i stopped yesterday to ask the person who took the box when i dropped it off. the usual suspects were clearly there (this raised another red flag) so i spoke to the lady who was there. of course she was new and was no help. so she took down my info and specifics about the time i dropped the package off and my address/fedex account #

this is so strange, im pretty sure im fucked. any other time i had questions or opened a ticket regarding the status of a delivery/receipt they were very prompt in getting back to me. i just hope this doesnt flag me for future shipments since this isnt my first occurence.

clearly to make light of the situation, but it sounds like the fbi is on to you

Government sucks.

black butte xxiv, clearly a let down but clearly clearly the same. going to crack an older one and do a side by side next weekend to see if i am misremembering the beer or its actually a bit different.

they change the recipe every year. it will ofc be different. no?

side note: spent all my free time on the weekend brewing and bottling so i didnt get a chance to clean up the cellar and call you. will try to make this a priority this week

yea, they certainly do. i guess i should have phrased that to mean "i want to try previous years to see if i just dont care for this years as much or i actually have tastes that have changed and this is clearly what i once thought it was".

also, need to apparently drive to portland to get this beer, the 1 case salem got is gone and everywhere else is still sitting on the stoic.........

Kentucky Bourbon Ale, Founders Dirty Bastard, and Mt. Carmel Nut Brown Ale is where this weekend is at.

just submitted my offer to a realtor for a piece of land that is going to house the brewery

adam, im just letting you know that your open house day for your brewery shalst be my first trip out east
so let your friends know that they need to let me sleep on your couch (i hear dan is the only person allowed to crash at house)

Gary slept at my house before too.
I just could clearly accomodate everyone for the last gathering.

ill sleep in the dog house
ok, ill buy a hotel
but ill do my best to be at your grand opening, just saying

ya know toots, we could have more 1 on 1 time if you came out before and clearly wait until the pandemonium unleashes

This is exciting news.

I'm being genuine. I know it's the default to figure every poop is sarcastic, so wanted to be clear I do think this is awesome.

Also, nother 12 hour day in the book. FUCKING SHIT
