    Alright, I haven't the faintest idea WHY I cannot post the picture...but I'll list the beers instead and hopefully work out the kinks here!

    I received a box from Florida with the following goodies:
    Cigar City Guave Grove (def like)
    Cigar City Tropical Wheatwave (never tried- looking forward to it)
    Cigar City Dos Costas Oeste- Orange Wood Aged (love me some fruity additions)
    Saint Somewhere Saison Athene
    Florida Beer Company Key West Southernmost Wheat
    Cocoa Beach Pale Ale
    Tequesta Brewing Co Der Chancellor (growler- I love that their label looks like someone printed it off a home computer and slapped it on)

    The t-shirt is really cool, wish I could post the pic. I tried it on and was told I now have a shirt I can wear to the next release (is that all these beer geeks think about?!). I also received a bunch of stickers and a really cool TBC glass.

    Thanks so much, I'm not sure who it is, but I appreciate it and am looking forward to trying everything.

    My target's package is out for delivery as we speak. It is being delivered in a state that homes Kirk Herbstreit, my favorite collegiate football analyst!

    Looks like this could be me or Sitarist...

    Nice college football knowledge. Or Google skills.

    All clues have led this way. The George Harrison clue leads me to believe that Im the lucky one though. Fingers crossed.

    When do we get to reveal who we had?

    I think they generally do it after the haul is posted.

    I know I'm supposed to post this in ISO, but does anyone here have a Gilgamesh they're looking to trade?

    Unless the box hit a snag, I was wrong again. Still no surprises on the doorstep ... :slight_frown:

    I'm glad you have enjoyed one already! I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the rest- Brett & I was a limited release & far tastier than BA reviews would indicate.

    And I don't think it's 20th anniversary, it's Imperial IPA, which the bros ranked 100- so now you can compare.

    Im now having the Heady Topper ( I need more of these! )

    Yes the Brett & I, Im looking forward to that one, but its going in the cellar for now.

    The 20th on the label confused me.

    I could see that- their labeling is confusing. I know 1 HT is a tease, if I get back up there again I'll pick you up a 4 pack to trade.

    No doubt on the HT, I think Id put this in my top 10.

    Apologies to CWBlues for the tardy haul posting. All I can say is that all you single BAs without kids, enjoy it while you can!

    Very nice haul with one hell of a kicker in it!

    Schwag: Flat12 T-Shirt and pint glass (no bottles, guessing they must be tap only?)
    Local stuff: Pretzels and a bottle of Pure brown county shagbark hickory syrup (cool!)

    Beer:
    The bad news is the Sun King Osiris suffered a leak (but no delivery issues, so all good here!)

    Triton Rail Splitter IPA
    New Albanian Yakima Rye IPA, and Hoptimus IIPA

    And the haul from FFF:
    Alpha King
    Zombie Dust
    Brian Boru
    Dreadnaught
    Arctic Panzer Wolf
    Darklord!!!!!

    Sweet! Hit a huge want and all the others solidly in my wheel house. Great box!!!
