    This sounds like far more work than I would ever have asked you to do, for for your effort I thank you.

    Truthfully though I thought the "third box" was a creative way of foreshadowing the Civil War box I received from your fellow Texan, so I didn't start asking about creamy pepper sauce (which by the way, is excellent).

    So @luwak wasn't satisfied with crushing me under the weight of all of the Bruery & Yeti beers so he sent a secondary box :astonished:
    I happened to be working from home & caught this scene this afternoon

    At 53 lbs I don't blame her for using the dolly, I could have used one myself. This ninja packs more beers into a box than I have ever seen!
    Along with the beers come notes from the beers that entertain while you're unpacking...like these

    Let's start with the cans

    And now onto the "little guys" including a cold brew coffee thrown in :grinning:

    ...and the Big Boys!

    Absolutely ridiculous box! He downplayed it but 29 beers & a cold press coffee is an insane "follow up" box especially since there were several big wants like BB Temptress, Parabola, Tree Shaker, AB Noir, Xmas Bomb, etc. Also tons of new beers to tick as well. I definitely won the sender draw in this BIF :stuck_out_tongue:

    Yes, this thread has fallen eerily silent. I was told my second box would be heading back my way earlier in the week. However, I have no evidence to indicate this has occurred. So no pron from me any time soon, I suspect.

    My third box is out for delivery to @LehighAce06 so we should get some prOn from that today too. Unlike the bomb that @Clarkson dropped on @slvrmon82 , the box I sent was very small so it will be some quicky prOn. But sometimes those quickies can be very satisfying. I will let Kevin be the judge of that though. If he doesn't like it I will be VERY willing to take it back.

    Awesome of you to spend the time to do that! Now that I can actually see it, @Clarkson you've outdone yourself.

    I don't know what's in that box, but I can guarantee you aren't getting it back :wink:

    Holy shit man.... @rspauldi delivered a tactical nuke. This box may have been small, but that didn't impact the damage it did. A little background, my shirt size is in the 5XL/6XL range, which is about as easy to find as tits on a bull. I'm also a huge fan of peach/apricot sours, they're probably my favorite (with raspberry in a close second). Anyway...

    I remembered this post from when I sent Valrxman a Fen Tao. Once I drew your name for this BIF I knew what I had to get for you. Enjoy, I hope it lives up to your expectations.

    Glad to see that you are happy with the little box.

    That's one of the things I love about the BIF community. Pretty much anytime I mention publicly that I want something (reasonable) I either get PMs offering it or it just happens to show up in a box lol.

    Peach is a soft fruit it will be lost faster than stronger fruits

    Makes sense, I guess I'll stop collecting beers for a peach/apricot tasting and just start drinking them.

    Can't totally disagree there, 2012 and 2010 were both excellent, but far less fruit flavor than the 2014.
