SWTFYW Hints and Hauls!!!

My haul for the day, bargain basement boobies. Missed my snifter so much (currently known as Jeff's Big Ass Glass) that I set out to Goodwill to find another and struck gold when I happened across 2, AND a Hennepin glass. Need to figure out what to engrave on these now...

 

yah i actually had my first taste of this one from buzzword in the original bif and snagged a 2nd.....but figured id throw it in the box since it was just kicking around

Let's see what tomorrow brings.

 

and happy to be in possession of Jeff's Big Ass Glass!
I put it away for the bottle share for fear of drunken breakage, but it is my go to glass when I want to drink 2 beers at a time!

 

Hopefully places are stocking up for the weekend tomorrow.

 

Funny you should mention this today. I just opened an unexpected box to find another Imperial Stout Trooper. I'm actually going to drink this one.

The box also had a couple of other things...

 

It would probably be easier to just not show up for work tomorrow

 

Ok, so I need to know the following:

Who has had this?
Who would recommend this?
Who has access to this?

Stuff and things!

 

I've had it and enjoyed it. It is sweet, so best for a desert beer.....and one of my local shops has plenty of it

 

So basically like a Creme Brûlée right?

Edit: Stuff and Things

 

Did not think it was as sweet as Creme Brulee, and it had that classic Biscotti Break taste to it as well.

 

I'm pretty sure it uses Biscotti as the base so it's already pretty good. It's thick, not as sweet as Creme Brulee, but would be tough to put one down by yourself. I split a bottle and it was great but it went down slow. Definitely worth trying at least once, but it's a little too expensive for me to want to get again.

 

First boob job: introducing the Whale Catcher.

Is that as big as your head?
We're going to need to see that filled with a nice dark beer (or 2) to really show it off

 

Man, it's been a while since I've posted one of these updates. For those participating in the distance LIF, here's the latest and greatest.

just in time for march madness...i like it.

 

Yes! Curious as to if any of you guys would be interested in another BIF inside infinity for March Madness. I know we skintight have 64 teams here but if 32 people from here or 16 if we have to. But basically like other sports BIFS , you put up say 44 oz of good beer and get a team randomly. If there is enough interest we can discuss pay outs. I would be happy to run this, got my BIF running feet wet running a football playoff one. You would get your team randomly drawn out of a hat/bowl. So if interested we would need at least 16 people, hopefully 32.
