Lost Abbey prices for Loons. Can't say it's not worth it.
They finally arrived at my offsite today. Wasn't too pleased with DHL tracking nor their customer service, but I am giving them a bit of a pass since the box was dropped off to bpost on the 24th and technically in the hands of dhl overseas on the 25th.Yeah, so basically $45/btl to my door. Still not great, but I'm never gonna just casually see those bottles on a shelf here in SD without a huge markup. I'm calling it an xmas present to myself.
Oh, I didn't finish my thought before I hit post reply apparently. Yeah, it was handed off on the 25th and only held because "destination has a holiday"...then it got to OH, then apparently here to san diego, but delivery got put on hold, then the following day it triggered again as being processed in OH. I was told that the san diego scans were virtual and that it hadn't left OH yet....you know, despite the tracking saying "Arrived in San Diego". Then of course closed for the NewYears holiday.I've had two boxes sent via DHL from Etre. One got here in two days, the other in three. No complaints from me.
OH as in Ohio? I've had probably two dozen boxes shipped from Belgium to SD and never had one go through Ohio.Oh, I didn't finish my thought before I hit post reply apparently.

Yeah, Ohio. When doing bpost -> USPS it would either hit NY or LAX customs, but with bpost -> DHL, my boxes go through customs in Cincinnati.OH as in Ohio? I've had probably two dozen boxes shipped from Belgium to SD and never had one go through Ohio.
And that's weird about the fake scans. I once had UPS tracking say a box had just left Louisville AFTER it arrived in CA, as in a scan showing up late, but not one showing before it happened.
(I save screen shots of all the tracking info so I can obsessively refer to them when new boxes are en route.)
I think it's funny that Liquid Gravity misspelled Pat and Shawn McIlhenney's last name.I hope all those breweries are better at making beer than they are at making logos and flyers.
Lol. Hopefully it’s a sign that they were hyper focused on the brew.I think it's funny that Liquid Gravity misspelled Pat and Shawn McIlhenney's last name.
Sadly this place is dead now.Hello All! Some of you may recognize/know me from the early days of Talk Beer...I'm making my first post after a 6.5 year hiatus! I used to trade beer very regularly a while ago but stopped as the beer trading scene was getting out of control, and doesn't seem to have gotten any better, haha.
I just received my case/4 bottles of Pliny the Younger today and I have 1 bottle I am saving for trading to another San Diego resident who wasn't able to get a case. Trading seems like a giant pain in the ass these days so I don't have any particular beer(s) I'm looking for. I don't care about price, hype, bottle counts, grey market values, etc...I just want to trade good beer for good beer. So make an offer and let's not make this complicated...from one San Diegan to another. Cheers!
Just like WCIPA...deadAF.Sadly this place is dead now.
Breaking the streak will just allow you to not worry about it in the future. I had to do that with Enjoy By.Just like WCIPA...deadAF.
But I did see the trade and was trying to figure out what to offer to get a bottle. It's sad, but I just don't want to break my streak of having PtY due to completely failing at internetting the morning of the sale.
