    I was wondering if we were going to get a Westy sighting. Awesome haul!

    All the boxes delivered so far look totally killer. Everyone has upped their game for this CANBIF. Lots of Camerons RPA making the rounds as well.

    My box should hit my target tomorrow, or Monday at the latest. 253 US Oz will drop on someone's porch in 2 packages......a styro shipper and a small supplimental box.

    Hint: My target posted on some other website what they were drinking last week and I had to make 2 emergency substitutions because I didn't want to duplicate. Jerk :wink:

    This is indeed a homebrew, let me know what you think of it. I'm quite happy with that one! Glad you are happy with the box, this was really fun.

    I assume there are still a number of people shipping to/from the west that are holding off on shipping because of the weather. Please don't rush your shipments to meet the original April 20th deadline. Because of the situation, we will extend the deadline until the weather permits shipment through AB, SK and MB.

    But for those who are delaying, if you could please try your best to ship as soon as possible once the weather permits, it would be appreciated. Keep in mind that there are people out there who shipped over a week ago and have yet to receive and I am sure they are jonesing for their boxes to arrive :slight_smile:

    Took my box to Fedex today thinking I could sneak it through the Prairies on Fri and Sat. Fedex guy said it wouldn't move from B.C until 3 tomorrow afternoon. He has me sweating now! Hopefully the styrofoam shipper will insulate enough.

    I was a little worried at my inability to hit your wants. I think I only hit one!! Glad you liked the box.

    The 10 day forcast is a bit of a moving target and keeps changing, but if what I'm seeing now holds then Tuesday may be safe to ship from Manitoba. Keep in mind Monday night / Tuesday morning is showing 25F which is a bit borderline for 5-6% beer, and I pray I don't get a freak 10F drop show up a day after I send...(it's happened before, not a good feeling). We're sort of pushing it, maybe next year start a month later? :stuck_out_tongue:

    Received a nice package yesterday! I am holding off on opening it because I have to ship my box out today (work has been crazy, end of semester...). I'd rather wait until my mark gets their box! It is taking all of my willpower to not rip that bad boy open though, lol!

    Just woke up and retrieved two boxes from my front step. One from a friend in Toronto, one from Hamilton. Now begins the mad rush to open them both before work!
