    That "rum overpowering" thing is actually what made me prefer Rum barrel pumking to good gourd almighty at the pumpkin "share" @Mipper hosted. Rum barrel pumpking just had a bit of rum to add to the base beer, but good gourd almighty IMO was a rum bomb, far inferior to regular good gourd

    OK I'm drunk and tagged my target. Thanks for this @UTvols05 it was amazing. Drank it with @lefty17 as we stood in line for the Bourbon County release.

    And now for Day 3 from @UTvols05. This should help me recover from @lefty17 forcing me to scour the streets of Chicago for Bourbon County like it was my job.

    Non-official 6DOT day 3. Need some Darkness to go along with the darkness of my bank account after today.

    Day 3 from @PA-Michigander. Right up my alley and we're 3/3 on new breweries to me.

    So, @jrs3994243 has gone and decided to hit me with another one of my Top Wants. This is an absolutely beastly box so far, can't wait for the next three days!

    That said... I am like the walking dead right now due to a lack of sleep (lined up for BCBS last night after thanksgiving dinner and have been running around since). I'm going to have to save this one for tomorrow so that I can truly enjoy it, and that way I'll be able to share it with @campa86 as well.

    Finally home and unthawing after a night out in the cold waiting for bourbon county and running around town. Very fun day with some BA buddies (@mothman and @Jack_Deichert) and successful too!

    Opened up this day 3 beauty from @dwmetsfan13 to unwind and get me ready for an early bed time in preparation for another cold day outside - going to the Minnesota Gophers vs. Wisconsin Badgers game.

    Back to the beer! Just another example of @dwmetsfan13 hooking me up and kicking ass in stalking me/curating this box. This is right up my alley and a huge want/new tick. Thanks so much!

    I bought a present for a local today who won't be expecting it at all.

    Super excited about it. Thank you @LehighAce06 for your help.

    @HoppySeb is killing it (me)! One of my favs, and a '14 at that - smooth, vanilla caramel and oak. Thank you sir.

    Day 3, part two, courtesy of @ohyeahitsmuff . So boozy, big, raisiny, dark; the barrels really come through. So good!

    Turkey Sixer Day 3 - Dry Dock Signature Series Double Coffee Porter. Another win courtesy of @vitaminvert and another brew above 10%. This one is smooth, very caramely with a nice barrel presence. Thanks Andrew!

    I'm jealous of you. I have a bottle from a local, but I'm too much of a pansy to open it and FUK'n drink it. This is why I love the 'do*' series of lifs. No room for hoarding!

    It gets noticeably less Stout and boozy (though not necessarily less barrel) from here... Cheers!

    Day 3 and yet another tick from an amazing brewery at the top of their game thanks to @robgage (whom I still owe a FUK'n replacement LIF box to... Don't think I've forgotten)

    [​IMG]

    Huge bourbon, which could not be more fitting on a day like today. Delicious, and appropriate to forget for an hour or so about the fact that there are terrible people on this planet. Thank God for awesome BA's like yourselves!

    I'm chilling and enjoying day 3.
    I saw the cap and got excited for a bruery sour.
    [​IMG]

    This one was smelled a little different. What is this taste? Lemons and vanilla? WTF!


    [​IMG]

    This is The Bruery Imperial Cabinet wild ale brewed with Jester King. I didn't know that I wanted this beer until now. Thanks @campa86 you are crushing it.

    Turducken Day 3
    Starts off with some wrapping from my Irish's number 1 rival - The USC Condoms
    [​IMG]Opened up to another want of mine. Been dying to try this since I really like spiced stouts but most aren't hot enough for me. Habaneros did the trick. The heat comes through perfectly. Thanks for a third beer from a great box @Tee2Grn! [​IMG]
