    Sorry to hear about your fallen soldier, but I'm not sure I can let you get away with waiting until tomorrow for the pron. I have some alone time tonight that I won't have in the morning, and I want to make use of it......

    Wow lots of noticeable edits to the thread. Such a shame considering nothing was too distasteful. Hell even our female friend in this round 'liked' the funny image I posted last night. Ridiculous.

    Yeah the SWTFYW thread lost like 3 whole pages as well (perhaps less tasteful content...), apparently the mods did some housecleaning over the past week or so.

    I can't even follow that thread anymore. Too many new people and it moves too fast.

    I was in the summer portion of that BIF that was also held at the new stomping grounds and made a brief appearance when my target (who was assigned from over there) only indicated his haul arrived on here. The day or two I waited to see if he posted pics was enough for me. As said, so much going on in there lol

    Final group shot with coasters and chocolate for the wife! My wife says "How did he know I liked chocolate" I said..."Don't all women like chocolate?"..."well played" she said.


    And we did have the one fallen soldier...

    [​IMG]

    Pizza Boy - Bluerbon Berry - @Mipper actually said he will be replacing this bottle and I cannot thank him enough!!!

    As he said: "Lesson learned. Even in a styro shipper, need to use tape"

    RIP


    OK, now that my fingers are numb from typing, all I can say is thanks!!!

    This is by far one of the best (if not THE best) boxes I have ever received!!!! You for sure made a name for yourself when it comes to BIFs and general awesomeness all together!!!

    Once again, I cannot thank you enough...except for all the thanks you will get along the way on Untappd and the ninja box that will eventually show up on your doorstep...but besides that...

    I am glad you liked it my friend! I put a lot of thought and sneakiness into it. I tried to stay with wants and out of distribution PA goodness. For what it is worth to the group....the fallen soldier was probably the biggest one of the bunch....only 228 bottles.....well 227 now.... and the ones I got were the first 4 sold over the counter. How do I know? I was first in line. I also had (hopefully) @IPAFan521 believing he was getting the 2 Pizza Boy sours in a trade with me "After" the BIF. Well he is getting my last Bleurbon Berry now! He also thought he was getting the Blood Lust in another trade, but I was working with the "other" guy to make him think that.

    Over all this was SO MUCH fun and the sadness I have over the fallen soldier is palpable. I half hoped he was messing with me because I messed with him. Alas it was not the case.

    EDIT - I have to thank @PA-Michigander for all of his help in my first BIF. The guy is freaking AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! Trade with / or give this man beer!

    Such a sneaky little guy here! Like he said, was tricking others into helping him make me think I was setting up trades for other bottle with them when all the while he was using it to his advantage to ninja these bottle into my box!!!

    As for the Bluerbon Berry - You are going WAY above and beyond by replacing this and it will not go un thanked!!! I am going to consider this a trade at this point and you will not be disappointed in the results!!!!

    Now that I've composed myself, I am sorry to see that the fallen soldier was such an important one, it sucks to lose even a private, but much, much more to lose a general.

    From what I hear, NN is somewhat exempt from the "old IPA" issue that most experience; since it has such a strong malt backbone in the first place, it becomes a 'different' beer rather than a 'stale' beer... I actually know a guy who gets a case of it and only drinks one sixer fresh, saves the rest for when it's got a few months+ on it.

    @Mipper - Wasn't that KBS sent to you so you could have your first taste of it? Don't make me tell on you to SWTFYW, you'll wind up with 10 of them (including one from me)!
