Also, while I will work to fill out my wants to include beers people can actually get, just send stuff that I haven’t rated. Local for you is great for me.

cheers!

As for me, given I’ve just vastly increased my wantlist for this and Secret Santa purposes, I don’t think anyone will have any problems.

Absolutely freaking perfect. Given there’s a little election coming up around these parts mid Oct-early Nov is an absolutely perfect time for me not to ship.

It is importatnt that we try and increase our wants. However, I am always open to anything I have rated highly and don’t have locally. I will try and add some beers to my list over the next week or so. 7/9/2009 10:36:53 AM

I’m also fine with local stuff, and I think I even put something in my note about preferring unrated locals over something I rated really highly (with the exception of RR sours I think... I’ll always be happy to have more of those). But I think it’s pretty simple for most of us to do an advanced search in our top 4-5 categories, sort by rating, and add a good chunk of the ones we haven’t had in those categories. I did that for my top 2-3 categories for SS, and I’ll probably go through by the time we get to me on the list, which is thankfully at the end. I’m actually excited about being last, as it means I can get rid of some of the box pile-up here for now, and have time to drink through a lot of my cellar before I get box-flooded in Feb-brew-ary.

address list beermailed. Did everyone get it?
woohoo...let’s get Mystery Swap 4.0 underway!!!
Please ship on the week indicated for each person. Please do NOT wait until the end of the week to go shopping and then end up
shipping late the following week. That is not acceptable.
Please ship at least $25 worth of beer that the person has not rated and is local to you, not easily obtainable by them,
unless they have specified something else in their notes. I know for some people with a lot of ratings this may be difficult.
If it is, please email and let them know and try to find out what their 2nd choices might be.

Got it. You may notice my address says to be announced. I’m moving from my current location and don’t know where yet. I should know my address my September 1st at the lastest, 2 weeks before you gotta ship to me. I’ll send a beermail to everyone then, unless ken would rather do it.

I’ll have a package off to Florida by Wednesday!

Finally, is anyone NOT ok with receiving cider or mead? There are some excellent local examples.
