Great 8 bottle +1 glass trade. Cant put a finger on the packaging. Everything got past the pond in one piece and the shipping was very fast. Will definately trade with Dakine again.
Once in a blue moon, you get a legendary box that you want to have the contents tatooed on your back. Thanks Dakine for this aaaawesome box of Cigar City Beers: 110K+OT Batch #2 I.R.I.S, Hopped up Johnnie, Humidor Series Marshal Zhukov’s Imperial Stout, and Hunahpu’s Imperial Stout. Insane!
What can I say about this guy that hasn’t been said already. He went seriously above and beyond for someone I’ve never met. Thanks for thinking of me when you got the Hopped Up Johnnie. Trade with this guy if you haven’t already.

I always love trading with Dakine. This shipment inlcuded 6 VERY NICE beers which included Alpha King, Robert the Bruce, Chocolate Oak Aged Yeti, Espresso Oak aged Yeti, Real Ale Coffee Porter and one that I have forgotten. Dakine is such a cool guy and is truly a credit to RateBeer.
Guess I’ll have to re-build my WANTS since Dakine crushed it again. Nice problem to have. Four bottles, four WANTS crossed off. Yet another great trade.
Dakine sent me a much-desired bottle of Calumet Grand Chef along with another much-desired goodie, BA 110k+OT Batch 2. Great trade and hope to do it again after the big move!
Another great box from Dakine. He sent a Curieux 2008 that i need for a vertical and a Chocolate bock that i did not get to try when it was out. All this for a future trade to be named later. Oh yea it was super fast as always.
In person trade with Dakine got me 4 beers from my wants list. Sculpin, Surly Furious, KBS and Alesmith IPA for some Cigar City brews. Great trader and great guy to share some brews with. I look foward to some more trades with him once he moves out to the desert. Congrats on trade #250!
Dakine displayed guru like patience, since this trade took over 6 months on my part to complete! I sent a bunch of goodies, he sent a bunch of goodies! Great trade!
Dakine hooked me up with one each of Cigar City Humidor Ale, Shipyard Smashed Pumpkin, and a Leinie’s Big Eddy! Daknole is always a great person to trade with!
My first trade with Dakine was a great one. He sent the agreed upon Captain Lawrence Golden Delicious, Cigar City Furgus Mor, and Zukov Imperial Stout plus a slew a=of great extras. Thanks again man, looking forward to the next one!
Dakine and I have had an ongoing trade for quite some time. He just sent me a mystery box that is beyond me: Cigar city 110K+OT batch 2(regular and barrel aged) , Capricho Oscuro batch 2, some fresh pliny, 2007 BA Old Numbskull, and an upland blackberry. Holy Dakine Batman! The legend continues.

The guy is a legend, what else is there to say. Came through with a smattering of various awesomeness. Packed like a pro (wierd, right?) and easy communication. Will definitely have to do it again!

Looks like he threw in some Seminole pasta to be sa
Excellent package for Mystery Swap 4. Dak sent a South Dakota mead which takes care of a tough state for me, but even though the mead met the minimum cost for the package, he also threw in a Surly Coffee Bender and Pike XXXXX Extra Stout, both want list items. Safely packed. Thanks!
sweet Jesus....after our last trade being so epic I didn’t know if we would trade again, but Dak sent the agreed upon Marshal Zhukov stout and bonused a Campeador - Fergus Mor!!!!! Are you kidding me with this generosity? Hard to beat trader for sure!
One of the few trades I have done via ratebeer and Daknole made it memorable. He sent a fantastic box — CC 110, a couple of Southern Tiers, a Stone 09 and a Key West. What can I say that more than 200 others haven’t already said? He is a generous and enthusiastic trader. Thanks, Daknole.
damn, another bomb ass box from dak! he included ccb marshal zurkhov, 110 b2, caprichio oscuro, black out stout and BA blackout, long trail (im)porter, and others!!! wow, thanks again!
Dakine sent out another massively good and massively huge box my way. Included were many wants list items as extras, and some awesome glasses. Oh yeah, and a nice little DL plus a 78xx Expidition. Perfectly packed, as always, great trader!
2nd trade with Daknole, received 3 Cigar City Brews. Marshal Zhukov, Jai Alai Humidor Cedar Aged IPA, and Improvisacion. Looking forward to these babies. Well packed in a nice 3 bottle styro shipper.
daknole came out of the blue with an offer I could not refuse. A free brew + shipping on something I totally forgot I had added to my want list. I also forgot ratebeer had the feature. Bottle made it safer than mother-hen’s most prized chic. Excellent transaction though I feel bad that it was so one-sided. I hope to return the very generous act very soon. So thank you, THANK you!!!
Daknole sent a great box for the Mystery Swap 4.0: Rodenbach Grand Cru, CCB Bolita Brown Ale, Long Trail Coffee Stout, Virgin Islands Liquid Sunshine, 2004 Thomas Hardys Ale, and last but not least a CCB Capricho Oscuto Batch 2! Great selection of beers I haven’t had! Thanks again Dakine!
Huge thanks to Dak, who sent me a couple of beer shirts for my GF. Everything package safe and sound, as expected. He really went out of his way on this one. I appreciate it man, thanks!
After I contacted him, dak hooked me up the the Cigar City Guava Grove and Bolit Brown, and threw in Sweet Waters Dank Tank, St. Arnold Divine No 7, and the Barley Wine and Imperial Porter from Shipyards Pugsley series. Seriously generous trader.
OMG!!! The box I got from Dakine was amazing. He had a ton of treats for me including many of my wants. I can’t thank him enough! Will definitely trade with him again. If you can trade with DAK!
Great box from Dakine. He always goes way over the top, well packed parcel with two CCBs, two Shorts beers, a DDC aphrodesiaque and a Two Hearted Ale. Very nice, my first CCB’s and my first Shorts. Thanks a million.
Dakine sent me the agreed bottle of CCB Capricho batch 2 in quick and easy trade. Hope you enjoy the glassware with some tasty brews. Thanks again Dakine for the superb brew. “Beer is Good Food”
Daknole asks just for a New Belgium Sour brown. Sure, I said, and I got him a Moaten and a few other local specialties. He sends a great box of Cigar City, St, Somewheres, some Hawaiians that Florida gets but not Chicago, and fills out with foreign lagers from other countries I haven’t ticked. A truly generous package! One bottle borke, but luckily it was one of the cheap South American lager
Daknole was interested in a BAOS that I was trading and what does he send back..not one, not two, but THREE bottles off my want list!! Now as the weather cools off by me I have a Cigar City Capricho Oscuro (Batch 2), a Dieu du Ciel Aphrodisiaque and a Tyranena Dirty Old Man to help keep me warm. Thanks for the quick and easy trade.
A nice box of Florida locals and a Tyranena BGW Porter that looks awesome. Packed well and great communication, I’ll do another trade any time he wants!
Dakine sent a full well packed box of some great beers, including CC Humidor and Capricho Obscurto, both Saint Somewheres, some Indian River, a Holy Mackeral Mack in Black and several others. Great trader and look forward to doing this again. Thanks a bunch!!!
got an awesome box of beer from Dak, tons of WL, tons of top 50, and tons of Cigar City. Can’t thank him enough for the opportunity to try these finely wrapped beers. Top Notch!
For the Mystery Swap Dakine sent me some awesome beers including: Cigar City Humidor Jai Alai, Estrella Damm Inedit, a couple nice Weyerbachers, and a Landshark Lager! Thanks man! I am sure this wont be the last trade we do!
Dakine sent me the beer he said he would, and put about 2 feet of electrical tape and could have been dropped 30 feet without the beer suffering in the slightest. I think this will make box number 4 from him, and surely will not be our last. Thanks!
Dakine just sent me my first box of beer. He is the MAN! He hooked me up with a six pack of SImcoe Double IPA, a bomber of Cigar City Humidor Series Ale, and thee singles as a bonus. He is very generous! Excellent communication all the way. He double boxed and is professional packer. I cant wait to trade with him again. Thank you, Dakine! Let me know when you want some more XXX Warl

Great trade went off without a hitch. Gotta thank Honkeybra for his help. Hooked me up with 2 Cigar City brews, including the 110+. Some awesome extras as well, with the Duck Rabbit Baltic as the highlight. Would trade again in a heartbeat.
Dak and I swapped some Kuhnhenn and Cigar City brews. As his trading record proves, first class all the way!! Communication, quick turn around, packaging! Threw in a nice bonus of Mikkeller Jackie Brown, much appreciated! Huge thanks!!
I was looking for a Cigar City 110K+OT Batch #2 I.R.I.S and before I knew it a little box arrived in Montreal with that bottle along with a Cuvee de Tomme. Another extra-smooth trade with Dakine. And we’re already talking about our next one. Huge thanks from north of the border again.
Dak’s on a killing spree here! he sent me an amazing selection including, but not limited to- vintage third coast, bells cherry stout, IR amber rose, shipyard 11th, mack in black, terrapin COIS, founders devil dancer, ccb guava grove, jai alai cedar, and more! can’t wait to trade again, im already working on his next box! great packing, fast shipping, excellent guy!
Dakine is an awesome trader. I sent him a Castleton and a Temptation in return for some Cigar City brews and a BB Angel Share.Everything was packaged perfect. I think the box could of been hit by a truck and still nothing would have broken. He was very quick about getting out my box and also threw in some great drop ins of local brews. If you havent’ traded with him yet I highly recomend it.
So Dak insisted that I be his 200th trade and I obliged. What can I say about this guy that hasn’t already been said? He slaughtered my wants and nailed all of my permanent wants. Bombproof packing, fast and easy shipping. We will get together sometime my friend and enjoy a few brews together.
Trade #199, I wish i had your dedication sir! Dak decided that the box he sent me a couple months ago (see below) wasn’t good enough, and that he had to send me another one as a house-warming gift after moving - so yesterday a box showed up on my doorstep containing two CCB bottles - a Cedar-aged Jai Alai and a Guava Grove. What a guy!
During a visit up to Atlanta, Dakine came with presents. He graciously handed over a bottle of Cigar City Humidor Series Jai Alai Cedar Aged India Pale Ale. A great guy to trade with and even more fun to bar hop with! Cheers!
Worked out a trade with Dakine a little while and never left feedback. This guy doesn’t need the CRED, but I’ll give it anyways. Top notch trader and a real asset to this community. Go Dak!
In our latest of many trades, Dakine sent me a large box full of goodies. Included in the shipper was Popskull, Southampton Scotch ale, extras of fresh Hopslam, Tres, Shipyard Longfellow and 750 of Cuvee Rene that I’ll sit on for 10 years...
Easy to see why he is one of the most prolific traders on this site!
My second trade with Dakine and he sent some awesome Cigar City Brews including Jai Allai IPA, Bourbon Bolita, and 110 K IRIS - which is awesome!. Included were some cool extras a Bells Hopslam and Third Coast and a Keywest Southernmost Wheat from my want list! Thanks again man!
Yes, Dak is the man... we traded for a limited release CCB Beer, and he sent me not one, but 2 very sweet extras. When he is looking for something next time, I hope I have it so we can trade again. Thanks!
Who’s the man? Dak’s the man that’s who. 2 that’s right 2 Cigar City growlers, 1 110 batch 2, 1 KBS and 1 Hopslam. Killed my wants list, looking forward to the next one friend.
Daknole comes through again. He sent me a DFH World Wide Stout and Surly Bender (finally, my first Surly!) from my Wants. Also included Ommegang Biere De Mars, New Holland Pilgrims Dole, Marin San Quentins Breakout Stout, and Arcadia Bourbon Barrel Shipwreck Porter. He also threw in some various beer coasters and a Dos Equis miracha shaker! Haha...thanks man. Dakine kicks as
In a trade that began pre DLD, Dak sent a couple Cigar City gems and a LA Serpents Stout. It’s always a pleasure to trade with one of the good guys on this site. Thanks and I look forward to many more.
Quick left to right from the picture - a bevy of bell’s beauties: Two Hearted, Oberon, Cherry Stout, Java Stout, Consecrator, Amber Ale. NG Wisconsin Red, CCB 100K+OT #2, 2009 Dark Lord, LA Red Poppy (WL), SA Triple Bock (WL), Woodchuck Oak Aged (WL), Devil Dancer (WL), Central Waters Peruvian Morning, KBS. Dak outdid himself on this one.

Yup.
Coming back to my apartment from Iowa, I see Dakine’s second box waiting for me. Cigar City 100K and Scotch Ale were waiting for me. Super psyched about these two beers. Thanks yet again!
Dakine sent me a package back in May that consisted of KBS, Wake ’N Bake, Mack in Black, and seven others I can’t think of off the top of my head. Packed to travel from the East to the West Coast with no breakage or leakage. Thank you!
dak beermailed me to see if I wanted to trade for some Cigar City. I had hoped to take a break from trading for awhile, but let it slip that I wanted some of that Florida phenom. He sends me CC 110k+OT and Big Sound Scotch Ale. As extra he sends a DFH WWS, a Dos Equis maraca and some coasters. Great extra! Quick easy trade with great communication and solid packaging. Thanks for trade&
Dakine’s a pro...what more can be said. he hooked me up with some dedolle sr and added some groovey brews as extras.....no ....serious.....one was ’groovy brew’...look it up.
Dakine sent some beer sunshine from Florida! 1-Cigar City 110K+OT Batch #2, 1-Cigar City Big Sound Scotch Ale, and a 1-DFH WWS. Second trade with Dakine and he didn’t disappoint. Thanks again my friend for these wonderful brews and hope to do it again soon. “Beer is Good Food”
Great trade with Dakine here. Got two cigar city brews, 110K+OT 2 IRIS and Scotch, DR Baltic, Smuttynose Impy, Port Santa’s Little Helper, CDV Double, GF Stout, and Dogfather. Bonused me a Holy Mackerel. Thanks Dakine!
Dakine shot me an email saying he wanted to send me an Old plowshare stout, on him, cause it was on my want list! Things have been bad here, but this brightened up my day, and I have had some good luck since, things are getting better!!! So I thought, lets do a trade, its been awhile! He sent me a Holy Mackrel, Old plowshare, and a Peche Mortel, all new to me, and wants,
This was our 6th or 7th trade and hopefully not our last! Dakine sent an extremely well packed box of 15 beers which included Brooklyn Local 1, Puglsley’s Barley Wine and Imp. Porter, some Weyerbachers, Lion, and a couple of pale lagers from new countries for me, and more. Getting a box of beer from him is always a treat and is like Beer Christmas! Daknole, Thanks!
Packed inside a double boxed wine shipper was a Unibroue Ephemere Cassis, 5 new country ticks and bonuses of Dark Horse Fore, Founders Backwoods Bastard and some malt likka! Thanks again, Dakine. Edit: Almost forgot... a bunch of coasters and stickers too!
Dakine agreed to send me to Cigar City awhile back. Upon CCB’s first bottle release of Big Sound Scotch Ale, I received a big old bottle! He also threw in two great brews-- Dark Horse Crooked Tree IPA and Surly Coffee Bender along with some schwag. Thanks Dakine!
Dakine, aside from having a really strange name, is a great guy. This box was a long time coming - but was totally worth the wait. A Lost Abbey Red Poppy, Abyss, St. Arnold Divine Reserve #5, PtE, Speedway Stout, and a Thirsty Dog Siberian Night.
Dakine sent me a Cigar City Big Sound and an 09 Dark Lord. Extras included a Mother’s Milk, BA Dragon’s Milk, Devil Dancer and a St. Ambroise Oatmeal stout. He also threww in some nice coasters and a Dos Equis maraca! Easy communication, good packing, and an all around good trade. I’m sure we’ll trade again.
I was heading to Indiana, so Dakine asks if I could get him some Popskull. Picked him up 2 bottles and sent with it an Oberon T-shirt and New Glarus pint glass. I told him I have never had any beers from Stone. Today I receive Ruination(12 and 22oz), Arragant Old Bastard, Oaked Arragant Old Bastard, Pale Ale, Smoked Porter, and Old Guardian. It definately was a good day when I decided to b
traded daknole some kbs & some glass ware for a pliny the elder & a 750 ml. of rr golden ale. the trade was fair enough for me & when i opened box he " threw in " 4 different brews from florida, great trader, and from what i hear a good guy as well.
Daknole comes though again! Scored an 09 Dark Lord, a LA Serpent Stout, a bevy of other delicious beers, plus a stack of sweet coasters. Packed up like a pro and shipping turnaround was less than 1 week. I’m sure I will be trading with Mr. Beckman again in the future!
Dakine sent agreed upon KRE and KBS as well as Holy Mackeral Special Golden and Bells Expediation Stout. He also threw in some coasters a bottle opener and other schwag all well packaged. Would gladly trade weith him again.
Dak, traded me a SFTO for my bottle of Darkness and went as far as to gift me KBS, killer extra to say the least. What made it even better was that is was an in person trade(local). There will be plenty of future trades between us I am sure.
NCAA bracket beer from Dakine. Hooked me up with an iced cider from Forbidden, can’t wait to taste that one. Also sent Bells Java Stout (WL), Weyerbacher Quad (WL) and a Haffenreffer private stock for good measure. As always with Dakine, a great, quick and easy shipment. Thanks!
A quick and simple in person trade at DLD for a 2009 Dark Lord. Amazing how fast you can acquire Dark Lords when you stand at the exit line with a hand full of Lost Abbey beers.
Dakine sent the two agreed upon beers and FOUR bonuses of beer I cant get around here. He also threw in some cool coasters. Great trade! I hope we can trade again. Thanks Dakine.
This might not make much sense but Dakine sent me a Struise Black Albert and a Tres Blueberry Stout because I sent A FRIEND of his a beer. I sent him nothing and he sends me 2 beers off my wants list. Awesome trader and great guy.
overdue feedback to a great trader, sent Lagunitas Hop Stoopid, RR Beatification, Surly Coffee Bender, Westvletern 12, Tyranena Devil Made me do it,Lost Abbey Angels Share, and a few others including some malt liquor to knock off my list. big thanks and would trade with again any time! excellent communication!!!
Another awesome trade with dakine who completely over did it with bonus beers. I recieved a hopslam, fff bohemouth, and siberian night. For bonuses I got another hop slam, a two hearted, bells porter and a xingu, damn. Cheers Dakine
Dak is the man, he asked about some Troeg’s beer and I countered asking for some beers from some odd places and he comes through plus a couple bonuses. Dak sent Banks Beer, Haffenreffer Private Stock, Taj Mahal PREMIUM lager, Pipeline Porter, Cusquena, Sam Smith’s Organic Cider and Bluegrass Dark Star Porter. Excellent trade with Dak, he is a great guy...can’t wait to try some of these.
Daknole is a man of his word. We agreed on a trade without knowing iota about each other. He is my first trade and has helped me get into the spirit of trading. I can’t wait to see him in person at Dark Lord Day 09. Cheers to Dakine.
Dakine and I have been beer buds since our first trade, but to get to point of this we were talking and I told him that i haven’t been working much due to the economy and would love to make trades and go after beers that I really wanted to try but couldn’t until things turned around and that I really wanted to try a west 12. low and behold this box turns up at my house with a bottle of Westy 12 co
Dakine hooked me up with the agreed upon SFTO Rum barrel then threw in two Holy Mackerel beers - Mack in Black and Special Golden Ale. Very well packed with great communication. Great trade.
Dakine sends to Montreal 5 x De Dolle Oerbier Special Reserva (I LOVE that new 2007 batch), Rogue Brewer, Espresso Oak Aged Yeti Imperial Stout. Then bonused me Trader Joes Vintage Ale 2008 (wl), Terrapin Imperial Stout, Mack in Black and a bunch of cool coasters! Many many thanks Dakine. Let’s do it again!
So Dak is the man, we all know this by know. He sends me a box with 14 beauties in it, yes, I said 14. Packing was perfect as usual and the beers were by far incredible. One of the best traders I’ve traded with hands down. Looking forward to the next box compadre!
Fast, fast and faster! Great speed on the shipping. First ever beer trade and he has been super understanding with me being slow on my end as I had a death in the family. Anyway lots of bonus coasters and a super cool key chain opener. Also a few fun bonus bottles of stuff that I definitely cannot get here. Once I have them I will rate as they are super odd beers. Great trade though aga
Daknole was very patient and helpful getting me started on my first trade. The trade was a Arcadia Shipwreck porter for a Dogfish World Wide Stout. Daknole also sent some local beers that I have never seen in my area. I look forward to another trade.
Dakine sent me the biggest box of beer that I have ever seen. I wont list all 21, but there was Black Ops, Insanity and Arctic Devil.. He sent a great Cigar City glass, some cool coasters and 2 nice openers. I can only hope to send such a nice box in return.
In an act of great beer trader generosity, Dakine sends me the agreed upon Choklat, Espresso Oak Yeti, Hop Stoopid, and Terrapin Rye PA, and then adds Divine Reserve #7, Flying Fish Espresso Porter, Weyerbacher Heresy, and a New Belgium snifter glass as bonuses. Thanks man.
Dakine some how manages to out due himself on each subsequent trade. In this one he sent me 2 bottle openers and 22 coasters, plus a few beers...7 of them. Most from my wants list. New Glarus Cracked Wheat, Stone Soup and Unplugged Iced Barely Wine, Shipeyard Pugsley Imperial Porter and Summer Ale, and Dark Horse Blueberry Stout. I know we will trade again.
Dak hooked a brutha’ up with none other than Darkness, by those kwayzee boys at Surly. And as a kickin’ bonus, he tossed in one of my faves - GI BCS. Thanks again Dak - you know we’ll be doin’ it again soon.
In what was supposed to be a small trade, Daknole hooks me up with the 2 Holy Mackerel’s I was expecting and then goes on to throw in: Four local extras, a bottle opener and an insane amount of coasters from around the globe. There might be more in there too, but I haven’t hit the bottom of the box yet!!! Thanks man, epic 1st trade with you.!
daknole and i had another quality face to face trade. Daknole gave me a full sail BA imperial stout, dobblesticke, and a NG Stone soup. i hope everytime we get to gether we can do one of these trades. thanks Dakine.
Just got the hook up from Daknole another great trade and for the first time my very first trade with the same person. Hook this guy up he will go out of his way to hook you up. Hurricane Reef - Caribbean Style Pilsner, Heavy Seas - Peg Leg, Bells - Java Stout, Grupo Empresarial Bavaria – Aguila, Cerveceria Centro Americana – Famosa, Cervecera del sur del Peru - Cusquena, Key West - Southernmost
Dak hit me up with the coolest packing I’ve seen (those trays are very neat) and some locals, including nice corked St. Somewheres. Also managed to hit four of my wants, including the NG crackd wheat which made me quite happy. Looking forward to more trades with Dak. Great communication, packing, and speed.
In a face to face trade, Dak hooked me up with a Great Divide Espresso Yeti and brought along a Red Hook Double Black to keep it company. Great guy to trade with, that why he rules Florida trading!!!
In our second trade Dakine sent (with blazing speed) the following goodies weyerbacher insanity, weyerbacher blithering idiot, bell’s third coast and left hand imperial stout. Thanks man!
Dakine fixed me up with a great box that included: DFH WW; FFF Alpha KING; Founders Dirty Bsatard; Hitachino Nest Espress Stout; Abita Amber; Leinie Fireside nut brown; and Sarnac Caramel Porter. Very nice! As usual, you always out-do yourself with every trade. Thanks a million.
A great trade all around. Great packing, shipment, communication, everything went ultra smooth with some nice extras thrown in. I’d trade again anytime. Thanks
Dakine sent me an Always welcome Pumpking along with Holy Mackerel Mack in Black and Special Golden ale, a Sierra Nevada Torpedo, and an Old Heathen. Thanks for a delicious set of beers!
What can I say about Dakine that hasn’t already been said? This time around he jumped up at the chance to help me out with Hard Liver by sending two Kuhnhenn Raspberry Eisbocks and some Mack in Black. I just read that he did 140 boxes in 1 year... can you say "I have a problem!" :-) J/K!!!! Thanks Dakine, always a pleasure. Your return box should go out
This man knows how to treat ya! I sent him a 06’ Bourbon Country Stout and a HB for a Belgian Red and an gracious extra. I’ll leave it short and sweet, trade with this man!
Daknole is the man! He put up with an absurd life implosion on my end, and broken bottles, and sent an amazing shipment to boot! Fantastic trader, loved the beer. Had a Kuhnhenn Raspberry Eisbock from him to celebrate my first phd acceptance letter.
Another easy trade with Dakine, I think our second. He sent Brooklyn Local Two, a Pricey Italian brew which name currently escapes me and he bonuses a batch 8200 or so expedition. And gives me a whole bunch of brews from several Latin American countries, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Venezuela, and Peru. Great packaging, still not sure if I found everything in that box.
In exchange for a box of New Glarus and other WI goodies, Dakine shipped me some great beer from parts southeast: Stoudts DIPA and ESB, Duck-Rabbit Amber, St Arnolds Divine, Mack in Black, Highland Oatmeal Porter, Key West Wheat, and Eleven Brown Ale. And breaking the Southern theme, Nogne O impy. Well packaged, bonus beers, another great trade from a great trader.
Dakine sent me a Boulevard Nut Cracker, KY Bourbon Barrel Ale, a Key West Southernmost Wheat, and a bunch of cool beer schwag. "Why?" you ask? FOR NO REASON AT ALL! A random guess on the forums! How generous is that?!? Anytime you need something from New England, shoot me a BM and I will do my best to hook you up!
From the Dakine free beer contest. One bottle of Hopslam and one awesome looking local. Also some stickers, coasters, bottle openers and a BELLS TEMPORARY TATTOO! Wow. Look for beer karma to be respread in a few weeks.
Thanks Dakine...Great trade. I got : Port Old Viscosity, Santas Little Helper, Otromundo, Big Hoppy Monster, Arcadia Imperial Stout, Original Flag Porter, Boulevard Nut Cracker, Rahr’s Winter Warmer, Duck-rabbit amber and Left Hand Rye Bock! Thanks man.
Intended to help out a fellow Floridian Rate Beerian and got blown away by the generous payback! I never thought i would get a bottle of Shorts Mystery Stout! AMAZING! And none the less, record time delivery! I recieved the package TWO days after finalizing and on a Saturday! Thanks again for the opportunity!!
I owe this dude beer! I was expecting a bottle of JW Lees Lagavulin and he threw in seven extras wh.wh..wh,what?!! The other beers...are New Glarus Apple, Hurricane Reef Caribbean Pilsner, Blithering Idiot , Old Heathen, LH Milk Stout, Eleven brown ale and Ybor gold amber lager. Dakine you are the man. I will reciprocate.
Not one to ever deny a man his wood aged beer fix, I sent Dakine a Pike Entire, Black Gold, and a tasty Saison from my little homebrewery, he shipped first even though I’m a newb and hooked it up with some tasty Hopslam, Double Simcoe, and a ton of stickers and schwag. Cheers Dakine and maybe we’ll get to meet at an event at my second home someday, Florida!
Awesome trader!! Did a one for one trade with him. I ended up with multiple unrated beers! Awesome. Very quick to ship and well packaged. Thank you very much for a great experience.
Very easy trade with the legend that is Daknole. As agreed he shipped a Cantillon Grand Cru and include a BONUS 6- pack that included various Florida beers plus a GI BCS and a Snake River OB-1(from Wyoming). Perfect packed and quick.
I sent Daknole a Shorts growler and a couple bonus’ for a DFH Black and Blue, and he threw in a couple wake-n-bakes, which are a new favorite of mine from a previous trade. Shipped in a badass cardboard holder, these beers werent going anywhere. Thanks for the trade, hope to do it again in the future!
Dakine sent me the agreed upon Alesmith Speedway Stout and Deschutes Black Butte XX as well as a very nice selection of local brews as bonuses. I was especially happy with the Snake River Zonker Stout, which is a sentimental favorite of mine, and the coasters and stickers he sent as well. Excellent packaging and great communication throughout. Thanks for a great trade!
Daknole and I agreed to trade some locals and he sends me beers from every part of map.

So a little while back I sent Dakine a couple bottles of some local stuff. We never really worked out much of a concrete trade plan but he told me he would put something together for me. I got home from my first day of paramedic school to find a 27 lbs box sent straight from heaven. Darklord, southern teir choklat, southern tier oat, bells expedition, and a ton of other amazing stuff. Dakine,
dakine delivered a speedy and well packed box only like newbie of the year can do. inside was the agreed upon saint somewhere, duck rabbit, two hearted, and weyerbaucher double simcoe IPA. bonused a saranac ESB, and a mack in black, and also a nice variety of coasters and six pack carriers. i know why he is newbie of the year now. will trade again anytime.
Dakine once again came threw with a nice selection of beer (and a sake). Iron Hill Trippel, Alpine Boris and a Sake that I am too lazy to go downstairs and get the name for. I hope there will be a 4th trade.
Packed like a pro, dakine sent a box chock-full of great brews: Apis Póltorak Jadwiga, Lagunitas Kill Ugly Radio, Allagash Four, DFH Fort, Olde School & Palo Santo Marron, Weyerbacher Blithering Idiot, and he has an Alesmith Wee Heavy on its way. He also threw in two awesome bonuses: DFH Black & Blue (wish list!) & Duck Rabbit Rabid Rabbit RIS. Another great trade from a great trader.
