    Does this mean you are going to a certain event that may involve beer named after a candidate who comes out of nowhere?

    We're getting a little bigger now, and I am so excited about these four beers. Holy crap.

    [​IMG]

    Maine - Mo - Maine! I finally get to try some Maine! So stoked!
    Maine - Lunch - Holy crap. This was the first Maine beer I pulled out of the box and I was floored. I can't believe it, thank you!
    Free Will - Kriek Lambic - Awww yeah. I'm not familiar with Free Will, but I am familiar with Kriek lambics, and they are absolutely delicious! I can't wait to try this.
    Free Will - Peach Lambic - Buhhh peaches. My favorite fruit. I am way too excited to try this!

    As if that wasn't enough, the big boys are next...

    And finally, the big ones!

    [​IMG]

    Neshaminy Creek - Punkless Dunkel - This sounds awesome. Pumpkin and cinnamon in a wheat ale? Count me in!
    Pizza Boy - Bean Dream - Pizza Boy! For some reason, I knew very little about this brewery, and I'm glad Jesse helped me change that! This guys sounds awesome.
    DuClaw - Retribution - Oh man. I've only had Sweet Baby Jesus from them, so I'm pretty excited to try this. Throw all of the BA Imperial Stouts you want at me!
    Hill Farmstead - Clara - What can I say, it's HF. Everything they do is awesome. I've never had Clara, can't wait to open this bad boy up!

    But wait, there's more!

    [​IMG]

    Growlers!

    Captain Lawrence - Seeking Alpha - Sweet! I've only had the Reserve DIPA that @Mikexw sent me, which was really good, so this should be awesome too.
    Mystery Growler! - I actually don't know what this is. I think there was a label on it, but it looks like it came off. @devilfluff, what is this mystery liquid? If I had already had breakfast, I'd consider blind tasting this guy to try to figure out what it is haha.

    All together, now!

    There's the whole family! What an awesome box, I totally can't wait to start digging in to these. Thanks again, Jesse! You totally destroyed it. I can't believe there's a second box coming, what the hell.

    The second growler is Carton Brewing Carton of Milk stout.

    Oh, and don't wait around on drinking those Maine brews!

    Oh awesome! I totally forgot you had mentioned Carton, can't wait to try that out then. I'll probably be opening that up tonight, I have no idea what we're doing for Halloween, but it involves going somewhere with people so that means I get to bring beer.

    Yes. Yes you do. I'm actually out of the regular at this point as the supply to PA has dried up for some reason (apparently). Otherwise we would work something out.

    If you get quantity, hit me up. I would like to work something out for some bottles. If not, no big deal.

    We had tons of it in Denver a few months ago... but I'm pretty sure it's mostly dried up, I've only got 2 bottles left right now.. but I can check around at some stores...

    Yep -- I think the biggest difference I've ever experienced based on freshness was Maine Lunch. They are SO good fresh.

    @devilfluff did you get the Seeking Alpha at the brewery?

    Sounds perfect to me. This is going to be another great share.

    Nope. It was on tap at one of my local liquor stores.

    OK -- I was just curious because they are so close to me. And I figured a good 3 hours from you.

    These hauls just keep rolling in! Are we almost done with Round 3? Any outstanding hauls to be posted (aside from the ones arriving today) ?

    Looks like I may be last again. However, I'm sure this time there won't be the drama involved and @Mikexw won't have to lay down the law. Just have to wait a little longer which by no means is a problem.
