So if I get this right, we can send commercial beer? I don't have any thing to go right now (nor will in the next couple months). If that's correct, I'd like to get in.
Please.

The rule has always been you may supplement with commercial. This is still a homebrew swap.

I've always sent commercial beer but homebrew is the focus.

Boy or girl and how old? I could use a new babysitter since all mine went off to college this year.

yeah, i've been experimenting a lot and I'm on my new system so I probably only have one as well. I always put in a few extra commercial offerings though. Always hoping for some good karma to come my way :pop

Yes, homebrew focus, but feel free to supplement with commercial. My personal take is that it's only worth spending the money to ship my beer if either I like it and want to share it with a BNer, or I need feedback on some aspect of it. If it isn't that good and I know WHY (aged past it's prime, screwed up the brew, etc), I don't feel like I need to send it... that's just my personal philosophy. I'd rather send a bottle or two of decent stuff and a few bottles of things I know they can't get in their home market than including another 4 bottles of stuff I'm just looking to get rid of.

Thanks, I'll forgo this one. Like i said I don't have any thing ready yet. I've been slacking the last few months and starting to ramp up now.
