Stout BIF Round 4 Hints & Hauls

#VBS

Seems better than last years, but who the hell remembers. 4.5

 

somewhere in Wisconsin there is a dmb fan with an empty bucket of popcorn and a small box on his porch

 

VBS.
Not a stout, but it was included in one of the boxes from @whyteboy003 that included a whole lot of stouts.

 

Been out of town for a while, but box is on its wa. Hope my target's ready.

 

@UcDru You mean this DMB fan Came home today to (3) boxes. I told the fiance that I was only expecting (2). I chuckled because she says, "Does this mean someone *ninja'd* you?" Yeah, apparently so I said with a smile. Guess I'm So Damn Lucky. I've said it before and I'll say it again, the generosity of a lot of you peeps is definitely humbling to say the least.
#Datglass(BOOM!), MZ (love CCB), Abyss (right in my wheel house), coconut chocolate milk stout (sounds yummy), coffee brown ale (right up my alley), and some IPA's that I'm excited to try. Thanks Drew, much appreciated!!

 

I'm going to need to setup a trade with @UcDru sometime soon so I can join the #datglass club, lol

 

#datglass chooses you. Funny you mention it I think I can put together a little thank you from a box you sent me in locals.

 

You got it buddy, happy to share the love. Don't you think I forgot about you trying to step up to the plate where there was a small conflict in a Fantasy 3League I participated in this past season. Luckily I was able to work it out with the other BAer involved and all ended well. Cheers and hope you enjoy!

 

It's amazing to me how some of the very best acts of generosity I've seen on this site stem directly from shitty situations like this. I don't recall if this is the same situation or a different one, but I first 'met' @dmbforever in a thread about just such a situation.

 

Came home to an awesome box courtesy of @nathanmiller. He knocked it out of the park... and still evidently has another box coming?? :O



We'll go right to left...

Avery Uncle Jacobs Stout (2013) - Tried it for the first time this year and thought to myself, this beer is awesome but could probably sit a year or two... well now I don't have to wait!
Cigar City Hunahpu - One of my few permanent wants, have only had it in bottle shares and happy to finally have a bottle to myself
Cigar City Marshal Zhukov - Also have only had the please of trying this one at a bottle share, can't wait to have a boss pour
Blue Mountain Bourbon Barrel Dark Hallow - Brewery and beer are new to me but it sounds awesome, looking forward to it
Armadillo Ale Works Quackertown Stout - Another highly rated beer that is new to me!
Freetail Local Coffee Stout - Love coffee stouts and this is another highly rated one
Hoppin' Frog B.O.R.I.S. The Crusher - Have enjoyed all of the Hoppin' Frog stouts I've had so far
Hoppin' Frog D.O.R.I.S. The Destroyer - Double Imperial Stout? Sounds riiiight up my alley

Awesome box, that I'll probably have to work my way through slowly due to dat ABV... but that's how I like them :O

 

That was a small round so if you do that you might get a thank you thank you box in return haha

 

Disclaimer: I didn't take these pictures. I was traveling all day and these were sent to me so I can salivate until I get home to drink them. Box from @dust_bunny has landed safely, and I must say he is a true SWTFYWer! Great variety (and wants!) in addition to the great stouts, so let's dive into it.



Perennial Sump
Elevation Oil Man
Bottle Logic Darkstar November
Santa Fe Kriek


St. Arnold Bishop's Barrel 8
Eclipse Java Coffee (?? can't tell from the picture exactly which color it is)
Tenaya Creek Imperial Stout
CW 17
Northwest Brewing Co. Black Pearl


WB 4th Anniversary
TG Tsunamai
Anchorage Darkest Hour
Hangar 24 Puga Cobra Barrel Roll 3


CW BBS (15?)
Lost Abbey Track 10 (right? I'm sort of guessing)
KRE (I keep meaning to trade for this and have never done it!)

Awesome box, man! You noticed my sour fetish as well as my love of stouts, hit a few random wants, and for that I salute you, sir. Excited to get home next week and try some of these.

 

So that's actually perennial BA sump it looks red in the pic but it's black and silver. Glad it made it safe, I still have a little more for you my friend

 

That's java eclipse? I can't make an accurate determination from Mrs. bcm's crappy photo.

 

Its either java or vanilla java

 

I see red in the picture. Is this another blue or white dress?

 

Yep. Those wax descriptions on the eclipse style guide are frighteningly similar. I had a taste of the Java when I visited 50/50 last year (I was passing through on a road trip). The high Sierra in february, devoid of snow? Scary shit. The beer blew me away though. Wish I could have had more but I had to make it all the way to Salt Lake City so no dice. Looks like I have another shot at it!

 

I feel I have learned a lot about color shades from eclipse. I have both the vanilla and regular java and I still don't know for sure which is which unless I put them side by side

 

Damn, BA Sump??

 

I am from Salt Lake City and yeah it's vanilla java eclipse... Make sure mrs. Bcm puts that ba sump in the fridge till you get back too
