    You are very welcome, enjoy! The joys of being a beer hoarder is being able to share some of the goodness...The Ithaca 14 and Serpent have been in my collection for a little bit and was more than happy to share

    Marti..I got this box and thought, "I drive truck, break arms, and arm wrestle. That's what I love to do!" I have never had any of these short's brews so I am thrilled to try them. And I'm kind of a barleywine freak, so you know the second picture made me very happy! Thanks for killing it!

    Ok. So I have no excuse other than a newborn as to why I haven't posted many hints or sent out my packages yet. But as of now, they are in the boxes ready to go on Monday. Don't want to send them tomorrow, because it is hot as hell in Chicago area right now. So final hints are this:

    Target #1: Your box is meant to be enjoyed after dark paired with oranges! Giveaway, I know. Hope you like the box!

    Target #2: My 2 month old daughter's name is Molly, so it is quite interesting that your Avatar is what it is! I also know you will enjoy your box!

    We have confirmation that a box touched down about 2 hours ago!
    Nice to meet you Sean, thanks again for the tip you gave to the delivery driver.

    Well I finally have all the beer in hand for target #2. No wants, but 200+ oz of locals in the targets preferred styles. Now I just need to find time to pack it up and drop off at FedEx. I'm hoping to get this out by Wednesday the latest

    Here's the final, fatal hint for Target 2. It's the tune with the one-word chorus I alluded to in an earlier hint. Only Neil can get away with it.

    Box is on the delivery truck, brother.

    did everybody go on vacation this week? There doesn't seem to be very much activity considering some people still owe us some beer pron pics and lots of boxes should be landing. Need more hints and beer pron!!!!

    I was wondering the same thing. It's quiet, too quiet.
    I've actually been productive at work today.
