Superbowl LIF Hauls Thread

He(dashirey) sent a mass BM to 4 of us yesterday letting us know our packages had arrived. Also thanked us, and apologized for the delay in getting to us... said he was out of town. He seemed rather gracious/appreciative about it, so... I'm cool with it. Glad he dug the beers I sent... or at least I think he did, since that BM wasn't intended for JUST me.

 

Whether he's able to post pictures of each haul or not, I think Dain should post one picture of the total haul when he receives everything! I'm still receiving emails and beermails daily with tracking numbers, keep them coming. If you're running behind that's fine, just let me and your recipient know what your target shipping date is. A litte delay is understandable especially because of the site issues, but let's try to get this one wrapped up sometime soon.

 

Boom goes the dynamite!



Andrew (circlenine) hit me with some amazing New England goodies!

I doubt he'll be waiting until he receives every box to start drinking them...

However, today I received my box from Brian (3Hops). This one was some SERIOUS biz.

Thanks Brian, this box blew me away. You absolutely crushed me with these hoppy delights (plus the best porter I've ever had). Please let me know if I can every repay the favor, if you're ever yearning for East Coast Goods.

Cheers
Brady

I still owe on this BIF. I've already contacted my recipient and I'll send out bright and early on Monday. Sorry for the delay.

 

did something happen to Dashirey? I bet the feds nabbed him. The Too much beer for one person law.

 

Ok everyone, all I have to say is WOW and THANKS for all the beer!

I was so good at keeping up at posting before the forums went down, then I was real busy and also sick right around the time they went back up and then was away for the weekend. I have been keeping track vigilantly of all packages (with pictures). So I will be posting them all soon, but for now here is a teaser of the first 30 or so (minus most of the empties - my wife would really be upset if I kept those around)

 

Great way to start things off with a bunch of great beers (and wants)! Thanks guys!


Package #1 - Sidebordz
Ithaca Groundbreak Saison
Captain Lawrence Golden Delicious
Firestone Walker 15


Package #2 - Tripside
Captain Lawrence Golden Delicious
Bruery Four Calling Birds
Bell's Hopslam

Glad the box arrived safely. I felt bad cause it took me longer than planned to get it out, but was happy I could share some tasty Michigan beers with you. I really hope that the forum crash doesn't keep the 97 losers from making good on the boxes that they owe in this LIF.

Noroc!
