Cuzco's n00b BIF Hints and Hauls thread!!

We should start including a packing list so brews don't go missing.

 

I've actually done that on occasion. Might start doing it all the time.

 

With the way things are going with this BIF, I might do the same.

 

I don't know Western Mass at all, but if you are anywhere near Tree House Brewing I hear it's worth a visit. They are only open Thursday evening and Saturdays.
How far into Central Mass are you coming? (Worcester area or staying farther west?)

 

I'm actually going to be in Brimfield--home of Treehouse Brewing, but I'm heading out about noon on Thusrday, timing sucks this trip.

 

Out doing busy work. Using my phone. But that was it. was definately repacked by fedex. i could tell. Ill get back to you in a few hours.

 

Please do. I will get another box packed and sent out asap. Was glassware, another 6 pack and 3 more 750ml bottles in there.

 

You guys need to go with USPS flat rate boxes. They actually handle with care when it says fragile and only takes 2 business days to get where it's going. All my trade partners can vouch for my boxes. I lost 1 can, one time but that is because I tried squeezing it in and knew better

 

That is ridiculous.

 

Took a page from my sender's book and threw one in the fridge immediately to cool while I helped my girlfriend with her car.

What I've been drinking while writing this:


Close Ups:






Rob/Keyes88 nailed it with this box. Lots of stouty goodness mixed with bourbon barrels, a touch of IPA, and all great beers from the northeast I've never had the pleasure of tasting. Looking forward to enjoying these with friends in the future. The colletion of Exit series beers is awesome, and BCBS with BCBCS, I can't believe the generosity here. Thank you very much to Rob, and a big thank you to Cuzco for running this BIF.

 

Glad youre enjoying the beers! just to let you know, the Fegley's is lasts years and this years with the yellow cap being the newer of the two.

Enjoy!

 

Cool, thanks for the note. I wouldn't have known that.

 

Awesome box! Especially with that J.W. Lee's thrown in there. That stuff is absolutely stupendous.

 

i did have a '98 but i couldnt find it, i think i drank it but an '02 isnt bad. Ten years aged long enough?

 

For serious? WTF?!

 

Before getting into the next round, I wonder if any of the Indiana/Michigan/Chicago/Wisconsin folk would be interested in a locals-for-locals trade with this NYer. I've been flipping out over the beer **** on these 46 pages, and a road trip to the mid-west is not in the cards.

 

So painful.

 

Sorry for the delay in response guys. I had a very busy day... I only had enough time to open that box and take pics with a quick post. But, it looks like we lost some bottles either by breakage or Fedex jackin shit. I BM'd whyhellomichael and I shared info with him. no stress here. I do feel bad for my sender. I will enjoy what I have and be stoked to try that Gingerbread Stout! Cheers! And this would also explain the delay in the shipment itself.

 

That might explain the smokey woody smell in the bag the bottles were in... it they were barrel beers anyway.

 

Seems like only 10 boxes left floating out there... 3 people have stated they are shipped in the thread. Cuzco should also upload photos of his boxes
