    The part that will keep you laughing is the seat cushion was some padding/packing material that I reused from @TongoRad 's BIF box!

    Dear target: I sent one box y'day and one box today so as not to have the combined weight do any serious damage to your porch.

    I have schwag I think will go excellently with your bar collection but wasn't able to fit it into the boxes so will have to send it separately.

    All I gotta say is, hope you're thirsty!!!!!!!

    It looks damn similar to my box. Wonder if they got switched at birth?

    If I had seen these posts before I made my Fedex run this morning, I woulda passed it along. Next time. BTW, are you the original owner, or do I have to give credit to someone else?

    I have a whole stack in the garage, just waiting to be put to good use. :slight_smile:

    Fwiw, I usually don't go to places with 'swag'. It's just bars and shops for me. However, if somebody would like a hash pipe shaped like the Statue of Liberty from those places on 8th Ave, then maybe I can do something about it.

    That Westbrook is made with real bits of panther, so you know it's good.

    I might be in the market. It'd make a great extra in the next BIF. Just have to make sure I make Cavedave my target. :wink: You know those DeadPhishHead types.

    A quick note to @bigjsempire , one end of your inbound box is notably heavier than the other. The end with the shipping label is the LIGHT end. When you open the box, you will see a small box on the light end. Pull that box out and set it down as it sat in the outer box, and open from the taped end. There's a couple fragile items in the smaller of the 2 inner boxes, they should be fine, they were packed in a particular way to keep everything from moving around en route.

    Enjoyed the Unobtanium when some BA that shall remain obvious sent me some one time :rolling_eyes:. Also, glad to see the Blackberry Farms Classic Saison in a box. I considered sending that out in my box as well :slight_smile:.

    Somebody figured out I like coffee beers...

    [​IMG]

    And hops...

    [​IMG]

    And malt...

    [​IMG]

    And barrel-aged brews, sours and more...

    [​IMG]

    Here's a photo with all of them, sans the one I drank last night...

    Thank you @ONovoMexicano for two incredible boxes. This is way more than I ever expected. These are all new to me, too, with a bunch I've been daydreaming about since guessing you were my sender. Can't imagine a better New Mexico haul, even if it included green chile.

    I've gotta thank @SammyJaxxxx too for vouching for me at the start of this round. You BIFers are all crazy, in the best possible way.

    A lot of big ass bottles there. What part of PA are you in?:slight_smile: That Santa Fe Java Stout is a very good beer. Santa Fe... there is a popular local lawyer out there. Jimmy, or Saul...?

    So first comes the swag.

    [​IMG]

    @newjack did his research and knew that I collect teku glasses and stickers. He also knew that Abyss is one of my favorite beers (coming to that later). A kickass Abyss tshirt, a Firestone Walker teku (didn't have it), and a metric ton of stickers and magnets for my fridge!

    Next up the bottle haul:

    [​IMG]

    Wow! We've got:
    Abyss 2008 (a vintage I haven't had)
    Bourbon County Stout (believe it or not, I've only had this legend as a 2oz plastic cup pour at a beer fest, so I'm psyched for this)
    Dark Lord (a mega want that I've never had)
    Spontenframboos (never had it and LOVE sours)
    Spontenwhitegrape (samzies)
    Three Floyds Skull Ole (a sour I don't know and I'm excited to try)
    Mirror Mirror (mega want that I've never had)

    It's almost like this guy read my mind of what my dream six pack (err seven pack) would be. So excited to get into these! Thank you!
