    Finally had a chance to sit down and figure out some 12 Days stats for my target to review:

    Counting the Christmas Eve bottle there are 16 beers for 13 days, 283.5 total ounces.

    Average score of 94.13 (one bottle is NR), average rating of 4.32.

    Good luck and god speed.

    Well since everyone else is doing it:

    Average score of 94.1 (two bottles NR), average rating of 4.31.
    Dangerously close to JNForsyth's numbers but just a hair under. Sorry @NickyPogs.

    Luckily my work party ended early so I rushed home to be greeted by some excellent boxes. If only this site allowed for local pic uploads I'd post the damage but alas I'm late for happy hour so I'll try to post them tonight.

    What a bummer, FedEx pushed back your 1st box's delivery, so 2 boxes will be delivered tomorrow.

    Seeing these boxes / reading these stats definitely has me a little jealous, and hoping my boxes live up but I'm confident...I think

    Also, target, I think I mislabeled two bottles. Not that it really matters but I think 9 and 11 should be swapped. 9 should be a bigger bottle than 11

    ^^^
    Spreadsheet finally opened. 99% sure you should swap 9 and 11 but post a pic if you are losing sleep over it.

    ~210 - 232 oz for your 12 days depending on the route you take. Lost track of the extras but should be pushing 500oz total

    We have touchdown! 2 boxes should be waiting on a cheese country porch.

    Dear target-
    Forgive an old man.....well actually younger than you!! I didn't bother calculating oz or stats. It's a box I would be Damn happy to receive and I'm even happier to have sent out!! I'm that confident.

    The 12 days and Christmas Eve beer are all 750's I think.

    There are two kinds of wrapping paper- silver foil for the light/low ABV days and dark green foil for the heavy/high ABV days. There are a total of 14 wrapped bottles (including Christmas Eve) 8 silver and 6 green. You can make the call on when you want to drink them. That should be flexible enough for your schedule. Also feel free to switch any of the extras out if you need a lighter (volume) day.

    There is also Silver and Green wrapped appropriate glassware. I have not tried a majority of the beers in your box. A beer given is as good or better than a beer drank!

    Cheers!!

    EDIT- you already received some swag that is good enough for Damn Near Anything/Time and this swag will come separately in a USPS Priority box

    12 days content clue.....


    The extras contain beer

    The 12 days I think 3 days have an A/B beer (due to small format) the beers are similar in styles and would be ok done side by side or before/after feel free to open them both to decide for yourself. All of the bottles contain beer.

    Swag you requested fancy glass ware you got two pieces of local vessels that I think are rather fancy. One of them is PGW so be sure to use that when you open your Xmas eve beer.

    Swag does not contain beer but is good for containing beer when you are ready to do so. Cheers!

    Hey target (I think you know who you are at this point) - One more box on the way today with the swag and should arrive Monday with the other two.

    Terrible news, the worst kind. Got an email exception on one of my two boxes for damage. Used two 12 shippers but apparently didn't matter. Will try to figure out FedEx's next move and am currently working on getting more beer ready to go out so you don't miss out on any days on my behalf.

    I might be joining that bandwagon if it doesn't work out. No way a 12 Shipper should be penetrated. It is what it is.
