    You sent us a thoughtful, tasty box of beers from a tough distro area, and we (especially Stu) don't have easy wants. Also, you sent a sweet pig glass. No feeling bad!

    Just opened a great box from Penguin3200. Im glad im on vacay already and was home to receive the box. He crushed me with over 30 pounds of great beer and gifts. It's a great mixture full of some of my favorites and some fantastic new beers to try. Sounds like it might snow tonight and into the morning so the beanie's gettin tossed right into action. Thanks for a great box.
