    Signups closed on Monday, so I imagine we should be seeing it in the next week or so.

    Once again, as we get closer to the shipping deadline, will my sender please announce to either me (if I ever get you figured out) or @Yourahoser when it's en route so I know it's coming. I send packages to my brother's house because it's way less likely to get stolen, but it still happens from time to time. Thanks.

    PS. WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?

    Still clueless at this point. I'm just gonna sit tight and wait for the day to call in the home owners policy and repair the porch.

    So @Homebrew sent a meticulously packaged, yet somehow discreet little clown-car of a box to me - I mean how this many beers came out of that box still amazes me!! Well done my friend!!
    [​IMG]
    The bigger boys: Full of wants and great bottles
    Allagash - Cuvee d'Industrial - been a want of mine for awhile!
    Allagash - James and Julie - pretty sure this was a want to, love me some sours
    Kent Falls - Juice Maker mango brett IPA - sounds delicious. Still have a KF bottle from you I need to open at some point!
    MBC - Lunch - Uh, yes I will drink this anytime, always a treat. My wife will want half, I will be nice.
    Founders - Project Pam - this one has avoided me for whatever reason, it's a want and it will go down Saturday
    Clown Shoes - Flight of the Angry Beast - same as above, exactly
    Captain Lawrence - Hudson Valley Harvest Sour Strawberry - my #craftwife will steal this too. I will share.
    Captain Lawrence - Hudson Valley Harvest Sour Apricot - both sound amazing to me
    Weyerbacher - SMS - haven't had the newest batch, looking forward to getting into this ASAP
    Lawson's Double or Nothing - cool label, I'm sure everything they make is killer, you had me at "..barleywine"

    [​IMG]
    The small guys:
    Back East Brewery - Intergalactic Lupulinary - new beer/brewery tick, great name, bring on the Hops!
    Fiddlehead - Second Fiddle - love this beer, it's been a minute, will be drank before 7pm tonight.
    Heady Topper - all day, any day, I will get 5 texts from my local nerd crew wondering how many I got, ha!
    NEBCo - G-bot - you sent me first cans of this, glad to have 2 more. #craftwife will be glad too!

    Swag: I said stickers are perfect swag for me and I got drilled with about 30 of them, thanks! Lots of goodies here....

    @Steban Dang, I was so sure it was headed to my house. Well, at least I can cross a couple more off my list. I know @JoeyIce3 is still on there, though I'm not sure why he'd hate our football team. Not enough hints from @Fallingcycle to know anything for sure, and @beatjunkee is still a possibility.

    There's 4 of us here that went to Huna Day. I'd expect to see more before the round is finished.

    I've never seen more tape on bottles than this box. You did some nice Area Under the Curve calculations to fit that many bottles in such a confined space!

    For trillium, either location, you can plan on what you want by visiting http://www.trilliumbrewing.com/#trillium-brewing-beer-list-section Haven't been to Canton but the Fort Port location is small. FYI...Mass only allows breweries to use their own glass for growler fills.

    I'd also recommend Night Shift. Great space and beers! Not too far from them is Aeronaut Brewing Co (http://www.aeronautbrewing.com/). Good beers and space, usually some cans.

    And if you are heading even further west to/toward Tree House, or coming from Tree House to Boston and have the time, Armsby Abbey in Worcester is a great place to eat and grab some beers (Hill Farmstead!).

    I'm actually planning on taking a trip to Boston for a graduation. I should have 2 days to hit up some breweries, but will be limited on when and where since I think the inlaws will be tagging along....trying to convince them to get their own rental so I don't have to cut my "knurding out" short, but on the other hand, they might come in handy at Treehouse for the pp limits!

    Checking my list, I guess I can't rule out @Doogflaggat or @brightcloud313 either. Someone throw me a "not shipping to jonbonfondle" hint!
