    It's me, it's me!

    Whoooooooooooooah! I got home to find an absolutely ridiculous box of 100% Quebec awesomeness from hoppypocket. Thank you so much! That box really is crazy. I was secretly hoping to get matched with someone from Quebec and I got my wish. The only beers I've had before are Charlevoix Saison (which I love) and TduD Succubus......which just happens to be my highest rated beer of all time!!!!!

    Been struggling with stupid pictures because I'm apparently a web numpty......we'll see how this goes.....

    Is the A&T gone at your store? I always feel that I haven't bought enough when it comes to these one-off's....:stuck_out_tongue:

    There's no way that Cherry Adam and Bourbon Fred were part of a CAN BIF box. :sunglasses:

    I like the style too, almost makes me want to drink it right out of the can!
    Thanks again for the awesome brews buddy. Think i should drink the Bourbon Fred sooner than later?

    So I just put my box in the mail on the hope that it will get on the move before the weekend, and we don't have any lows under 0 all weekend...

    I know, I know I kid myself, but hopefully my box arrives on my target's doorstep by next Friday. I name my box "'Twas the best of Manitoba, 'twas the worst of Manitoba"

    As previously mentioned almost 10L in beer! Enjoy!

    As for another hint: If I am not mistaken my target's box has been delivered already!

    I don't think there is any hurry with either HOTD brews. Both should continue to age well.

    Just curious to see how many boxes are still expected (I think kjyost's box counts as three!)

    I just drop my second box at the post office. It's heading out west and should be there early next week. Hints: My target box has not been delivered.

    Hint: I haven't yet sent out my box and I don't think my parter will be disappointed that a lot of it it not local.

    I've got two two send on Monday. I swear, if those temps. are revised downward yet again...:angry::stuck_out_tongue: One I think will take until the end of the week, the other only a couple of days. I'm not sure about hints, as I can't think of anything that isn't totally obscure, or completely obvious...
