    Just pulled out some #properglassware I've been saving for a special target. Fresh crowlers will be acquired tomorrow and then going into the office tomorrow to pack up the boxes without interruption. They start their travels on Monday.

    Hint: 40 oz.

    My pleasure bud! The growler is Tired Hands' Alien Church. It blew me away when I had it twice. Enjoy!

    I can see why, I had that first & it really is incredible!

    How long are the crowlers usually good for?
    I've only gotten crowlers once & it was at Willoughby; they suggested 7-10 days

    That's ideal, but I've let them go for 6 weeks and results were fine (not perfect, but definitely acceptable)

    @PA-Michigander alright Nick....I'm looking over my (12) day beers for you, and I have to be blunt...there's only (2) days of 12oz. I kinda thought about switching out a few (for just a brief second). But I look at your age and think back when I was where you were and think to myself....those were my prime years he should have no problem. Besides, since this is your last hurray.... I want to make you think twice about getting in the next one. If anything, for paybacks :wink: No worries, most of these beers are right in your wheel house. If we are gonna "dance" , I want you to remember me.

    Alien Church is probably my favorite Tired Hands IPA. Good choice

    Funny you should post this as I was bored at work tonight I went back and read your older hints and this one jumped out at me:

    I also see you quoting words and I wonder if there are hints I should be getting. Either way I'm not as young as you think, though I don't mind drinking to excess for something like these 12 days!

    Haha..no hidden messages my friend. Your not 34??? I could have swore I read that in your profile. #shiftyeyes

    Ps- tell your delivery man to make sure he has a back brace in his truck. (1) of your boxes is 58lbs.

    Holy cow! 58 pounds? Did you send me Aaron Rodgers? I'd be your BFF if you did :slight_smile:

    Yes I'm 34 but lately feeling MUCH older.

    EDIT: hush @Mipper

    I still can't figure out who my sender is… I guess Ill find out in the next 4-5 days.

    My target will know Monday, if he hasn't figured it out already, but the actual 12 days won arrive till Wednesday or Thursday, I can't actually purchase the last the 2 beers for Day 2 and Day 3 until tomorrow, but they will be very fresh IPAs from NJ.

    @JNForsyth 65lbs of beer are going to land Wednesday. (Sorry I lied about not sending to you earlier- you caught on too quick!)

    @UcDru your NBA BIF box should land Wednesday as well.

    @someguyfromtexaswhoisalocal - heads up.. Wednesday.
