Bert got: one outdated, rusty can of Natty Bo with a bulging top (his specific request!) which he immediately shotgunned. What a man! And good friend. Thanks Bert

I forgot to leave Bert some feedback for an awesome box he sent me for winning a contest he ran during Free Beer Week in 2014, and wanted to leave it now, because better late than never. Bert sent some great brews, quickly and packed like a pro. Truly one of the most generous guys on the site; sometimes I think he gives away more free beer than he trades! Thanks a lot, Bert!

So Bert and I have been trading for years. He sends out Retribution variants and unbelievably crazy amazing bottles from the heyday of the craft beer movement. He’s like a museum of beer. All I can do is hope to land something from his wants list as a return of gratitude. His constant search for hop BomBS! Is an addiction he has yet to admit to himself.
Thanks for your dedication man

Bert offered to send me an Ozzy can just because I mentioned I wanted one on the forums, no strings attached. I couldn’t just accept the free beer and be done with it, so we arranged a trade.

UPS switched Berts boxes, so this one came to me by way of eyedrinkale. Well packed with the DeGroens Marzen and Weizen, Clipper City Uber Pils and Pale Ale, Dominion Wheat, Pale, and Spring Brew, and Magic Hats HIIPA. Eyedrinkale drank two of the beers before he realized the switch, so he topped me off the Sweetwater 420 and the Bar Harbor Real Ale. Circuitous route, but well

I just got my milk order from the "slob" today, in great shape, and plus one from what we agree to. Good guy, easy to trade with, great shipper. How in the hell Fedex shredded the package of Siberian Night in a styro foam container I don't know. I'm going to try to make him happy!
