    They have been friggin' awesome so far. I had the Cap'n Lawrence last night, and the No Apologies tonight. I've dubbed this my Week of Hops, in your honor. Tomorrow night I'm going to try and take down a growler of Sun King Cream Dream V myself(my boss will be gone on Friday), and then I'm turning to the What is Enlightenment? on Friday evening. I have really, REALLY been wanting a bottle of Mean Old Tom for a long time, that was over the top!

    Finally cracked the Equinox Regulus Maibock! Wow, just a ton of stuff going on on this Maibock! Thanks Buffs. Just a huge malty and herbaceous nose on this gem and it drinks so clean and pure.

    Yep its massalla. Glad you like. Can never have enough flight paddles. Emjoy them there beers. How about the growler collars, found them at work and they take a lot of worry out of shipping growlers.

    Your growler packaging was very impressive. I'll be re-using them for sure. I'm not sure FedEx and UPS combining their box breaking abilities would be a match for the bomb shelter you sent me.
