White Labs is releasing some of their banked strains on an on-demand basis:

Some interesting sounding stuff in there...

The New Nordic Blend sounds pretty neat. The FAQ says they don't ship internationally, but it does say to send them an email if you are interested, so maybe it could be done.

Yeah, I saw that too. Perhaps if there's interest Everwood could bring some in.

Perhaps a group buy approach would ease their shipping concerns. I can inquire and organize it if there's local interest.

I'd try out that high pressure lager yeast... Being able to go grain to glass on 4 gallons in a keg in under two weeks for a lager is insane.

Yeah, I definitely want to try that one.

I'd take a few of assorted strains

I'm probably in for a couple of vials too.

I'd be in for some vials.

Upon taking a second look I saw that each strain will be reproduced once its order hits 250 and shipped separately. Therefore the group buy idea doesn't work unless a lot of us want the same strain. Asking Dave to see if he can get them with his regular shipments from White Labs is a better idea.

Definitely in for some.

I can definitely look into bring this in for you guys. I just brought in a WL order but if we get enough interest I can bring in another one. Shipping just becomes more bearable as the order quantity increases.

How often do you place yeast orders? Personally, I'm in no rush at all. Can't speak for everyone else though of course!

Usually every 2-3 months. Depends on how quickly they sell. Next one will probably be in Feb if it runs its natural course.
