Secret Santa Beer Swap 2018!

[Martybhoy]

Whisky bottle tubes are good for posting in

Pringles tube! Great idea and a good excuse to eat Pringles!

 

[Ajhutch]

Can't help you with the carbonation cap but with regards to posting bottles, a shoe box or any small box works well, a homemade sleeve of thick cardboard around the bottle with plenty of scrunched up newspaper and/or bubble wrap or a pringles tube also works. I've only ever had one bottle smash in the post from dozens I've sent this way.

My postman did comment that it smelled amazing as he handed over a soggy mass of cardboard!

I hope to have my mango milkshake ipa bottled today so might have one to share. Will update asap

@Stephenj
Cool, but don't tell us what you're swapping, don't want people guessing who their beer is from

 

[strange-steve]

So it's December already, not long left to get your entries in! This will close at the end of Tuesday and I'll get the addresses PMd on Wednesday.
