    Mine's going to be delayed a couple days as there's something on my targets wants that is incoming. I'm subbing out a much lower rated bottle as a result. :wink:

    Excellent box! That Sang du Merle is a fantastic brew. Nevermind Nectarous, which is outstanding. And a Sang Royale? Woof.

    No problem David! You made it a little difficult on me by getting your hands on some great BC brews right before the CANBIF, I think I still did okay though... Hope you enjoy!

    Bare with me as I will no doubt screw up the picture and need to edit multiple times.

    An absolutely killer box from Ted/tbadiuk!

    Left to right.....

    Cigar City Tocobaga Red Ale: Haven't had much from CC, so super excited to drink from this awesome brewery
    Fort Garry Pale and Dark Ale: Never had anything from Fort Garry, more beers I'm looking forward to
    Half Pints Burley Wine 2014: Right on! A few locals are pooling our Burley's for a massive vertical. Now it will be complete with the 2014!
    Half Pints Grand Slam!: A huge want! I love oatmeal stouts and this looks amazing
    Half Pints Saison de la Ceinture Flechee: I do love me a good saison and the season is perfect
    Half Pints Pothole Porter: Always wanted to try this and have never had the opportunity until now
    Bruery Oude Tart with Cherries: Oh baby, another huge want. This will be the first one to go
    Grassroots Arctic Saison: The perfect example of a beer I've had before that I'd never turn down a second time. Can't wait to revisit this
    Fort Garry Rouge and Black IPA: Pleased to get to try 4 beers from this previous untried brewery
    Goose Island Bourbon County Brand Stout: Whaaaaaat???? Definitely never expected this. I missed out on getting some BBBS by mere minutes this winter. Got my hands on some Barley Wine but always wanted to try the stout and thought I had missed my chance. A crazy amazing surprise!

    Awesome box, Ted. Much thanks for your wicked generosity. And your pack job was ridiculous. Maybe the most secure, tightly packed shipper I've ever received. Cheers to you!

    37.25 pounds and 295 ounces just went in the mail. Should arrive early next next week.

    Last Hint: I had to pull the HF bottles and Heady Topper from the box because you have already ticked them, as well as many of the special releases in Quebec! I love a challenge though and still managed to find all new beers for you. Cheers!
