Postal Bottle Swap

[Dads_Ale]

My bottle stocks have now been replenished and I am wondering if anyone would be interested in a bottle swap.

Sorry all gone now

1 - Deuchers IPA clone 4% - AG - no longer availabe

2 - Best Bitter 5.4% - AG - No longer available
3 - Cascadian Dark Ale (Black IPA) 5.4% - AG- No longer available
4 - APA 5.4% - AG - No longer available
5 - American Brown Ale 4.8% - HBC extract kit - No longer available

This will be first come first served so the first five replies get the goods. Swaps can be kit beers, extract beers or AG.

If you want a specific one get in quick and list in order of preference.

I will send out the bottles in proper bottle packaging so recipients can wait for mine to turn up then re-use the packing.

Looking forward to trying other members brews :

PS limited to UK only as can't afford overseas postal rates, sorry.

I would be interested in a swap, but first need to explore best ways to post. How are you packaging them? Using Royal Mail?

Hi Leon
I will be sending them by Royal Mail (second class) which was under £4.
They are in purpose made bottle postal packages (polystyrene inner)

If you fancy keeping a black Ipa aside for a few weeks I'll swap you with one of my AG black ipas when it's ready :)

[TheRedDarren]

Ooh, would love to try one, don't mind which. I shall return the favour!

 

[baggybill]

Wouldn't mind trying No.5 Just put some HBC Extract Kit Extra Irish Stout in 4 bottles today, so, if you fancy* one of them? Be a couple of weeks to carb up... have PET and glass.

Edit: *Or anything else out my sig...

 

[Dads_Ale]

Cheers guys :

I will send some PMs out this afternoon with a bit more info.

Just one bottle left to swap - Deuchers IPA clone.

I've got a Deuchars IPA clone too :-D. In fact I've got two versions, the second version has turned out too pale in colour (despite using the grains suggested in the ex-head brewer's email to an American fan). It's still carbonating so its flavour is a mystery so far. You could have version 1 (as long as the Missus doesn't find out, we're running short and she loves it) in 500ml PET or bottle, or version 2 in 1 litre PET, 500ml PET or bottle.

OR...

Currently carbonating I have a Saison and a Rye beer. The Rye you have a choice of brewed with lager yeast, ale yeast or both.

OR...

I think I might have a bottle of the Elderflower Pale Ale.

Sounds like aa splendid idea. Would love to try one, don't mind which one! I've got a few on the go at the moment conditioning so will return the favour when they are up and running! Cheers.

 

[Dads_Ale]

That's it all gone......

Will send out PMs later today when I am back home

Cheers

All packaged up and ready to go. Just need to get them down to the Post Office.

i can vouch for the quality of both dad's ales' packaging and beer :grin:

This is a great idea, nice one Dads_ale, I'll be getting into the spirit of it and offering some of my own too. Where did you get the packaging Dads_ale?

I got the packaging from here

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/EXPANDED-...78016009?var=440182645424&hash=item20d8e7b009

Not a bad price if you buy at least 10 or 12. And you can pick up from ARGOS if you want.
I went for the round ones this time but used the squarish ones last time. The round ones seem bigger so I am hoping the postage is still the same:pray:

 

[Dads_Ale]

All in the post on Saturday so hopefully they should start arriving next week.
I have put a brew log in the document wallet as well. Hopefully I got the right one with the right bottle.

Happy drinking

 

[baggybill]

Arrived at ~11:00, re-posted at the Post Office at ~13:00. Brew log also put in the document wallet.

I forgot to mark the bottle in someway so you would know which one is which on your shelf. It's a McEwan's Champion bottle with a Malt Miller branded cap.

Hope it's carbed up enough, the PET is still a wee bit soft for my liking :hmm:

Nice packaging, by the way, well worth the money :thumb:
