    Okay I lied a little, I left work a but early to unpack it some, and I could only get about halfway! I'll post the results when I get back, but damn, this is a very nice (and heavy) box. Thank you!

    Guys, I cannot believe this box. I think that, from this box, I can safely say that PhineasGage loves Founders... Anyway, it needs to be seen to be believed:

    One of each bottle
    Everything, plus stickers
    Two shirts I nearly missed
    The 12ozer's in my fridge, IT'S SO FULL

    Here's the list:

    3x Breakfast Stout (unfortunately, one broke in transit)
    3x Dry Hopped Pale Ale
    4x Double Trouble
    4x Imperial Stout
    5x Backwoods Bastard
    6x Red's Rye PA
    Blushing Monk
    CBS
    Curmudgeon's Better Half
    GI BCBCS
    GI Bramble Rye
    2x Founders Stickers
    2x Founders Temp Tattoo
    2x Iowa Hawkeyes shirts (I guess I have a new favorite Big 10+2 team!)
    1x Dirty Towel (I assume as packing material only...)

    Seriously, this box was nuts. I can't believe there's more to come.

    Does that mean only two bottles of bfast made it to you? Because it looks like I might've threw in an Xtra bw-bstrd by accident...
    Box two should round out some stuff and explain my founders obsession. (greatest brewery IMO.)
    Glad u like the box so far!

    Go hawks!

    Yeah, I ended up with 2 Breakfast Stouts. I think I counted them right, it's possible I messed it up...

    Judging by the 5 backwoods and 3 breakfast...I messed up. Sorry about the broken bottle. I'll see if I have a couple laying around to replace with.
    Can't wait for pics of it all Thursday haha.

    The dirty towel is actually Brandon's, I added a little more "dirt" to it...the whole me in a box thing...haha

    Don't worry about it, you have shipped more than enough beer already. AND THERE'S MORE COMING?!?!? I don't know how I'm going to follow this up.

    Actually, do you have that haul anywhere? With the old forums down it might be a good idea to post it in here.

    I am sure Stu wont disappoint. The box he sent me for the last Blind BIF was awesome.

    Boom-Shaka-Laka the damage from Brandon's box. (first box of the BIF.)

    BTW: the CBS in the pic is not the same as the one in Stu's box!

    Would've been funny if it had been. I was going to ask if I was expected to send it along to the next guy...

    Box 2 is delivered. Box three-the major swag box, will be shipping this weekend.

    I might've gone overboard, box two explains the swag. It just got dropped of at my warehouse this week, I have to repack it and ship it out.

    I got the box, but am going out again so I didn't fully open it. But it appears to be another 24 Founders twelve ounce bottles. I don't know how I'm going to fit this in my fridge, at this point.
