Awhile back I got an email from Dave at Muckney Brewing Blog, asking if I'd be interested in doing a beer trade because he was interested in trying some Surly. I was excited about the prospect of getting my hands on some beers I don't have access to, so I quickly agreed. After several exchanges figuring out what beers we were interested in, we ended up with a pretty nice size load. I sent him out Surly Bender, Surly Furious, Rush River Unforgiven Amber Ale, Summit Maybock, Summit Extra Pale Ale, and two of my homebrews. I sent him out a bottle of Irie Stout, and Mayabock. I'm curious on his feedback on the Mayabock becuase I'm not entirely feeling it right now.
As for his big ass box, I was excited to come home to a great collection of Pennsylvania beers, Muckney homebrews and Dogfish. In his bundle of joy, there was the following: Troegs Hop Back, Troegs Mad Elf, Troegs Nugget Nectar, Stouts Smooth Hoperator (one of the best beer names ever), Otto's Jolly Roger Imperial Stout, Victory Horizontal Barley Wine, Erie Brewing Co's Ol' Red Ceast and Desist, and Dogfish Head's Immort Ale. As for the Muckney Brews, I got their Rising Sun Ginger-Sesame Red Ale, Dark and Mysterious Cinnamon Porter, Dark IPA, and Heavy Hefe Wheat Ale. I'm very excited to try their home brews. I will be busy drinking and posting my thoughts on these in the next week or so. A special thanks to our good friend Dave at Muckney for sending out the box of beer, and I look forward to drinking these great beers, and trading again in the future!
Salud!

What a great deal! Don't suppose you ever get you hands on New Glarus products? I'd be more than willing to exchange or even foot the bill for a little Wisconsin elixer.
