Spontaneous BIF: Hints and Hauls

I KNOW. I was double checking myself.. "Who is this God of Beer that sends out multiple SBIF boxes of nectar?"

 

Whoops! My bad, got my names confused!

 

EDIT: This was from dachshundude86 not kmello. I got my sender and my target confused!

 

My box has been dug out from the monster Kansas storm and is on a truck for delivery today. I will post some photos of the awesome box I got yesterday after I get some things done round here.

Enjoy

 

Very Nice

 

Here is my box. Very excited as JK only sends a few beers to Philly and none of these. I just started to drink BW so this is a new one and I really like milk stout as well. I am impressed with how small the box was and how tight the bottles were and they got here ok. I would have thought a bigger box would be needed.

The box I sent was delivered at 10:47 today. Not sure if that is local time or where the box landed.

Enjoy

 

Great Box. Enjoy it.

 

Can we get a list of what beers everyone sent you as their likes/wants? Never know when something might be on a shelf.

This was fun to do.

Enjoy

 

I normally send larger boxes, but I was strapped for time and this worked in a pinch. I wouldn't have sent it if I didn't feel comfortable about it getting to you safely. I've packed a few boxes, in my day. Hope you like them all! They are fabulous TX beers that we here in the south (kmello69 included) are proud of.

P.S. - If anyone in the SBIF would like some of these, I have plenty more.

Cheers

Austin

 

Seriously, those fit in that box behind it!? Wow. You must be some kind of packing guru, because I wouldnt have even tried.

Nice job!

 

Nice Box. Jester King has some great label art.

 

Like I said, it was a I-was-in-a-rush kinda thing. I normally don't use boxes that small! To be honest, there would've been more beer in it had I had another box on-hand

 

Big thank you to BGrider85. Very excited to drink all of these beers. I've wanted to try some of the Karl Strauss beers for quite some time. Plus the Zombie Dust is awesome

 

Awesome haul! I had the 24th fresh and damn it was big. Very barrel forward with big sweetness, this was a year ago and I still have a bottle I can't wait to open up and see how it's developed.

 

Finally starting to shake my cold. Started in on my box with this:


Great IPA. Thank you Kmello

 

This was a lot of fun. I'd be up for doing something again....

Here's what folks are interested in (sorry the text formatting is all over the place):


Giantspace-I like saison, wild ales, thick stouts BA or not, fresh IPA , and many other things

SammyJaxxx- I am a big fan of DIPAs, stouts and porters. In alll honesty I will drink almost anything.
The exception is smoke beers. I have never been able to acquire that taste. I also love ambers!
Eriktheipaman:I like IPA, DIPA, imperial stouts and really like Bourbon BA Beer, (although I have not tried too many different ones yet). My cellar and other preferences are located on my profile page

kmello:Russian River, Alpine, Lost Abbey, Cigar City, Surly, any of the Vermont stuff, etc. If I had to pick something I want but havent had, I'd go with VT stuff (ironic, because I lived in VT before moving to TX) or Surly. Dark beers, barelywines, sours, NO IPAS OR BELGIANS

MisterGrizz:I love stouts, barleywines, sours, old ales, DIPAs,... not really picky, I like em all. Barrel aged is always awesome. I've been dying to get beers from Hill Farmstead, Alchemist, Cigar City, Russian River, Firestone Walker, Surly...anything from VT as well.

BGrider85:
3Beans, coffee beers, big stouts, barleywines, old ales

Ripps1:
I'll like to try anything from Hill Farmstead, cigar city, three Floyd's jester king. Anything really I love all types of beer.


Hermthegerm: No info provided


Dachshundude86- Did not give his interests as he was not receiving


Providence- I love trying new lagers. Czech Pils, Helles Bock and Doppelbocks specifically. I also love DIPA's and am always game to try a new porter or stout.

 

That Founder RIS is something special.

 

If you were in the right place at the right time, you could've tried Mean Old Tom a year ago.

 

I also had never had it until last night and was lucky to score a bottle in the BIF! It was amazing and hit the spot for sure Tonight I think I'll open the Jester King I got.

 

Thank you Kmello.
This is a great Porter. Really roasty.
This is a beer I never would have been able to try. A thank you goes out to you Providence for putting this together.
