    I just got some stuff this weekend to put finishing touches on my box. Will be sending out probably next Tuesday to a BA who has posted more recently than myself in this thread.

    I'll be stopping by Fedex today to drop off my target's box. 11 bottles of mostly sour goodness should land Wednesday or Thursday.

    Planning on driving up to Elmsford after work on Wednesday to see if I can snag a bottle of something that rhymes with "Mosso e Rarrone"...

    I think I'm the only one from MA, so this must be me :slight_smile: I must have misinterpreted the major city population clue because I had eliminated you as a potential sender. Although I was pretty sure I was the only participant w/o a Loon on my want list. I agree that will change once I try my first

    Well, it would help if I had done some due diligence. I made the assumption that Boston was in the top 10 in the US in population...it is not (as I am sure you know) :slight_smile: . In any case...

    I have also been getting a lot of The Bruery stuff lately, I havent had that one yet but I cant wait to try it.

    The box you sent the beers in was real nice with the exception of one thing: I don't think its gonna be big enough for the haul I have going over here for you.....

    I dont mind two boxes :slight_smile:

    EDIT: I have a sick amount of Bruery beers and I am now forcing myself to start working through them because the collection had gotten over 60 different beers from them.

    I like the state you mention, but dislike the "business address" part
