    If my assumption is correct and this is me, I will have pics up on Saturday, when I get back in town. Can't wait to unpack the box of "meh!"

    tackling the Shotgu Willie tonight, tasty. At first had an off flavor, but once it warmed a bit, a very fine brew. Thank you Merc for the new tic. To my target, your next box of sourness leaves on Tuesday. Will also throw in somethin else just cuz and stuff.

    Based on my calculations, this BIF is starting to wrap up very well. Other than several more haul posts, there is only one more box still in transit...so if you havent gotten a box yet, then you are the lucky recipient of the LAST BOX award...which comes with nothing, no cash prizes, no trophies, and not even a lousy copy of the home game.

    I am not done with my target, his second box will go out this week. If the Vice President and my regional manager weren't in town the next 2 days, it would go out tomorrow. But with the two of them in town, I have become a beck and call bitch.

    I got back in town this weekend to find a gigantic box waiting for me! Holy shit did VonZipper kill it!

    Below:
    GI - Bourbon County Cherry Rye (you sir are a sick-o)
    Ciso - Monomoy Kriek (Excited to try this!)
    Allagash - Interlude (Awesome!)
    The Bruery - Tart of Darkness, Sour in the Rye and Oude Tart (All of them are favorites of mine!!)

    [​IMG]

    Captain Lawrence - Hops and Roses (Really pumped to try this)
    Maine Brewing - Lunch X2 (huge want and one of them has already perished)
    3F - OG Golden Blend (One of my favorites!)
    Jolly Pumpkin - Sobrehumano (Excellent!)
    Mikkeller - Alive! (Yet another I am excited to try!)
    [​IMG]

    Thanks again to VonZipper - he absolutely killed it with his "box of meh!"
