    Awesome. Drink the Forest & Main Crowler soon. The beers they make are not really carbonated to begin with, but they are very tasty. Also, if you want more of any, I'd be more than happy to send out another six pack for a Live Oak Hefe / Yellow Rose combo. :wink:

    Let me just start by saying THIS BOX IS AMAZING! @MikeMcGraw absolutely nailed it.
    The shipping label says 37 lbs and I believe it. Here's a pic with cats and beer for scale.
    [​IMG]
    First thing I saw when I opened the box was Chad's red chair cushions. I too will re purpose these in my next outgoing box.
    [​IMG]
    I don't think @MikeMcGraw was taking any chances after suffering the 1st casualty. The beer was inside a bag in a box and that box was in another bag that was inside yet another box. Run on sentence? See pics for clarification.

    First up is Artaic from Trillium. Probably my favorite DIPA of all time. If that wasn't enough, matching glassware.
    [​IMG]
    More Trillium!
    Fort Point Pale Ale (Great beer and it stays on the want list.
    Melcher Street IPA (Big want!)
    Artaic DIPA (See above)
    [​IMG]
    All of the MA beers together.
    Jack's Abbey Framinghammer Baltic Porter (My first from Jack's Abbey and a want.)
    Berkshire Brewing Company Coffee House Porter (I love coffee beers and I'm looking forward to it.)
    Mayflower IPA (I've had the porter and wanted to try more from Mayflower.)
    [​IMG]
    Cans!
    Lord Hobo Brewing Company Boomsauce (I love trying things I've never heard of.)
    Lost Nation Mosaic IPA (Should have been a want.)
    Night Shift Brewing Whirlpool (Also should have been a want.)
    14th Star Brewing Tribute DIPA (It's delicious and I'm excited to have it again.)

    Lmfao. That's incredible. At least if FedEx asked you. An say your shipping chair cushions with a straight face.

    They keep coming.
    Troegs Perpetual IPA (Wanted to try anything from Troegs for a while now.)
