    Well, we haven't heard from him in a bit--it might not be necessary.

    In case you didn't notice, that Riserva is a pretty old one, see if you can figure out the date (or get Jesse to tell you)

    And well compensated too, I get to keep 1/2 of what I transport, right? No? OK then, whatever.

    So a 444 box made my day much better. Once I found out my car is officially donezo and coming to the realization I won't be able to trade or really buy beer for a while. I come home to a killer box from Derek ( who has way too nice of handwriting). I'll post pictures later tonight but pre pron

    Half acre- great plain jane (want)
    Pipeworks- end of days (should be want)
    Odell- Amuste (had it a couple weeks ago and it was strange... I like strange
    Three Floyd's- Amon ??? Gotta try it

    Aren't mules supposed to be compensated handsomely for the risk they take on? I say you take at least an Anne and Soigné for your troubles.

    I've been power watching Breaking Bad so my perception of mule compensation might be a little overblown.

    Glad you like it! A few notes:

    Check the date on the bottom of the Swamis - super fresh.
    Alpine Nelson is also incredibly fresh.
    How did the White Dog become a perma-want? I did a double take since that is a shelf beer for me. Let me know and I can just send ya a bunch. :slight_smile:

    As I said, standard rates apply--buy me a beer next time we get together and I'm good.

    just happened to walk into a local bottle shop as they were unloading some leftovers from the culmination festival in anchorage... managed to pick up a few sweet out of disto bootles. (and a wookey jack for good measure).

    By the way, this is the saddest thing ever. The praise they heap on lime-a-wretcha is astounding... "full of flavor"???

    Maybe "between 6 and 10"? Seems like it'd be a waste of the previous person's shipping cost if fewer than 6 were taken, and round 1 didn't include taking fewer than 6, so no real change there.

    i bet that one is Mago Tago :wink: if it is, can you leave like a dribble in the growler and just let me smell it? No way I can get down there before they sell out of it...

    swallowing it is expensive. after the fiasco last year they bumped the fine from $500 to $2500. and... having that thing touch my lips was more than enough. swallowing is seriously some next-level stuff & things.
