TLNBIFF Hints and Hauls

i did a quick search on IMDB, and from what i could tell, there are only three states that are possibilities for those three people, there could be more, but there are definitely three

 

I just unpacked a gigantic box from KevinMc79. No joking: The UPS guy was breathing a little heavy as he walked it up my driveway. Which is steep, granted, but still.

Who want to see some ****?

 

Box #1 landed

 

I just got another box from Pimpinmidget--looks to be a 6 bottle shipper.
Pics tonight.

 

The box was so big it knocked your old avatar right off of your profile!

 

You're slowly being weaned off of this BIF

 

i do! and i want to see the pictures of your beer too!

 

So thanks to Kevin, the boxes of beer in my basement is now taking over more space than the luggage. And that's before two trades and 1/2 of this BIF come in later in the week.

Here's the box that had the UPS guy huffing and puffing:


First the IL beers that he included:


That's:
Pipeworks Something Hoppy This Way Comes (love Ray Bradbury... and IIPAs!)
Two Brothers Laughing Panda Green Tea IPA (this sounds outrageous)
Revolution Double-Fist Double Pale Ale (been drooling over Revolution since I joined BA)
Revolution Dos Osos IPA (see above)
Revolution Repo Man Rye Stout (frigging love ryes)
Revolution Anti-Hero x2 (again, hoppy goodness... big want here)
Two Brothers Hop Centric DIPA (lordy!)

Now for the non-locals (to Kevin, anyway):



So yeah, that's:
Founders Double Trouble (I've wanted this but could pull the trigger at the beer store... Kevin is better to me than I am to me)
Founders Rubaeus (see above)
Dechuttes Fresh Squeezed IP (missing Seattle since I left many moons ago... excited for this)
Great Divide Espresso Oak Aged Yeti (wonderful beer)
FFF Blackheart (hadn't heard of it... psyched for anything FFF)
Dechuttes Black Butte XXI (yes, I had to read the bottle several times)
BCBCS (a want, but one that I never thought I'd see... craziness)

Let's get a family portrait:



I honestly can't believe that this is only half of a BIF right here. Kevin rocked it. My wants are very general (by brewery, more or less), and he came through with a giant smathering of incredible looking beers. Which reminds me: the Anti-Hero must be cold by now...

 

And yes, Busker... I'll bring the Black Butte XXI to Thanksgiving.

 

It will pair nice with my bottle of abyss

 

Glad you liked it! The Espresso Oak Aged Yeti has been in my cellar for a while. Decided to let it go. Enjoy!

 

I'm just gonna tell you that I am shipping to you because I had a delivery exception that I found out about yesterday. I put together another box last night with at least a few wants, some style/brewery wants as well. Should be getting picked up by FedEx this afternoon. Hopefully the new box will get to you before the end of the week.

 

To my target #2, my sincerest apologies. The box was taken to UPS, and it ripped as I was removing it from my car. I decided I was better off waiting another day, then sending you a box of broken bottles. I will add a bottle to the new box, and promise you will not have to wait "10,000 days." But I will also say you may not be "Sober" after drinking said bottle. Sorry for being a "Tool". Hope the wait is worth it.

 

What's a "delivery exception?" I hope a box didn't get lost or destroyed.

No worries whatsoever on timing. I'm headed out of town tomorrow, and clearly there's plenty to drink around here.

 

Jon0101 - I recognize this box!

Working from home and need to finish up a couple of things, will post beer **** in a while. One of the bottles appears to be homebrew though, Jon you will need to give me the low down on that.

 

ha, i just saw that this was delivered, glad it got there safely! i pretty much had to send your box back to you when i realized we were each other's senders after receiving your box. you are correct, the unlabled bottle is a homebrew, my second batch. it is a pale ale hopped with palisade and citra, and citrus zest from orange, grapefruit, lemon, and lime added at flameout. it came out pretty well i think, especially for my second batch, hope you enjoy!

 

Sounds awesome!

 

Oh snap! Fedex guy is at my door!!!
