    You're welcome. You have quite the Want list so I had to go with styles, as well as a few cellared brews. Hope you enjoy. Cheers!

    There's nothing quite like that feeling where you think you have a box of beer waiting for you and you can't wait to get home from work... and then you open the box and it blows you away.

    My bunny (injuredreserve, I do believe) brought it big time!

    Beer:
    22oz Jackie O's Oil of Aphrodite (wow! major want!)
    750ml Cigar City Marshal Zukov's (great beer)
    750ml Cigar City and Swamphead Colab Roosevelt Barleywine with Pecans (this would totally be a want if I knew about it)
    22oz Marshall Big Jamoke (looks awesome)
    22oz Alaskan Smoked Porter (perma-want, love this beer)
    22oz Saint Arnold Endeavour DIPA (wow look at those reviews!)
    12oz Bourbon County Stout 2011 (want!)
    12oz Voodoo Black Magick (major want! one of my favorite breweries and I've never had this beer)
    750ml Flossmoor Saison and Garfunkel (looks interesting)

    Swag:
    Cigar City Snifter
    Cigar City Stickers

    Candy:
    Whole bunch of Louisiana candy from Elmer and a couple of other odds and ends

    Thank you injuredreserve - this is a fantastic box and will provide for some great Easter weekend beer!

    I actually sent the box. I sent it out and realized I had forgotten to put my name on it. Sorry about that. The eisphyre is from 2009. It gets better with age.

    My swag came while I was getting home for lunch. A very cool Tyranena t shirt that will be making the trip I'm taking tomorrow with me. Thanks again Richkrull!

    Note - I tried posting the pic of the haul last night and I clearly don't know how to upload to the site yet.

    Yes, its a homebrew. I brewed a triple that I oak aged in a 5 gallon barrel and hit it with a little bourbon at bottling. Tastes amazing, going to actually enter it in some contests. Did a side by side and its just a little darker and more bourbon-y. Maybe after a few weeks that will smooth out. I hit 9.5% or so. Its just great IMHO. Very proud of it, let me know what you think.

Some really nice choices. I tried the chocolate covered bacon and holy cow is that an interestingly good combination.
