    Thank you Jono, these are looking sexy!

    IPA
    War Hammer Imperial IPA - I love trying new beers and dig that there aren't that many hads on this one.

    Stout
    Speedway Stout - Permawant, the wife and I really enjoy this one.

    Wildcard
    Saison-Brett (Boulevard Brewing) - Should have been a want, sounds delicious.

    Extras
    Black Butte XXV - barrel aged porter? yes please & thank you... right up my alley
    Pumpkin Ale - Perfect beer for today seeing as it feels like fall up here with the current temp of 63 degrees.

    Once again thank you kind sir!

    I haven't had one yet this year, but I do have a three year vertical that I'm planning on doing soon, it never disappoints though

    Box, you're fucking out! Fedex says scheduled delivery date is 4 business days.

    What started as six pack at the beginning of this BIF, the box has now morphed into a twelve pack with ten different beers currently.The beers together ring in with a BA average score of 95.9, while three chime in with scores of 100 the lowest is bringing up the rear with a score of 91. There are currently four of my targets wants headed his way, however a decision will need to be made so he will only end up with three.

    Enjoy!

    Even though I received my box awhile ago, I'm excited to see what is reveled next. And the Speedway Stout is one of my favorite stouts as well, I have one left think I'm gonna put it in the fridge.

    Curious anyone know if you can search beers by just their avg rating? Need to put my math skills to use.

    So does the box land Monday or Tuesday? I have a sneaking suspicion that I need to keep an eye out for this one...

    I've been crossing the 45th parallel numerous times a day, so Fedex is estimating delivery for tomorrow somewhere south of the 38th parallel.

    The box was left at the front door at 12:21... I'm guessing that time is PST.

    Well, Johnnie, you knocked it out of the fucking park. I am still waffling on every choice I could make (although one I'm pretty sure on for distro reasons even though I missed out on my other option last year and would love to make up for that here), and am informing those choices with my target's wants list to see if anything might do better off downstream. I would be happy with any of these. I will get pictures up once I stop agonizing over choices (and stalking my target, their target, their target, etc.).

    With the help of another BIF, I am able to hit two of my target's wants. I've not tried the second one and am a little sad to see it go, but even if my target passes in favor of another option, I'm sure it will get taken eventually because somebody else wants it, as well. It's a beer that can't not get snatched up. :slight_smile:

    I will be shipping on Monday, so you have a few days left to update your wants... :wink:
