    Haven't received mine yet... hope it will arrive today or tomorrow (and there's not too much hoppy stuff) as I will be outside the country for the next 3 weeks.

    So here's what kyost generously sent me:

    Fort Garry Dark
    Fort Garry Buddha
    Fort Garry Evil Goat
    Fort Garry Raspberry Quencher
    Fort Garry Stone Cold (I'm oddly looking forward to this one, haha)
    Fort Garry Happy Jack
    Half Pints Le Temps Noir
    Half Pints Stir Stick Stout
    Half Pints Humulus Ludicrous
    Half Pints Simcoe Spruce
    Half Pints Weizen Heimer

    And some great home brew: a sour brown, a 15% RIS, and a saison with brett!

    Obligatory pic:

    Kump

    I also need a message from the people that were supposed to send to these participants to inform me of the whereabouts of the packages.

    Sorry about the fruit beers, but IMHO Raspberry Quencher was fantastic, dry and tart but I had bought before you posted. :stuck_out_tongue: I figure a Stone Cold should go in every one of my CanBIFs forward, it's um, uh... As beers like it go, good...

    Glad you liked the box! Bad Apple is a fairly new brewery here (just won best new brewery at the Atlantic Canada Beer Awards) and the Black & Tackle is Barrel Aged which didn't last long in the stores!! Enjoy :slight_smile:
