Came home this afternoon to a super-surprise ninja box from @beatjunkee Inside was a letter and Some new ticks on both beers and breweries. Thanks Conrado! It's been awesome having you in for this round and I hope you stick with us. Cheers!
#GIF time thanks to @MTKATL ! First up the growlers: The official #GIF is Tropicalia, definite want Alesmith Speedway - Tasty Evil Twin Even More Jesus - Never tried this because I don't like their pricing, glad to try this in a BIF Now for the bottles and cans: Terrapin Single Origin Coffee Stouts X 4 varieties - Very excited about this. I actually heard good things about this 4 pack last week. Excited to get one. Orpheus Brewing Transmigration of Souls - you had me at "irresponsibly hopped" Creature Comforts Cosmik Debris - Looks like a tasty DIPA Death by Coconut - good one CC Koko Buni - Just drank this and enjoyed Wicked Weed Bretticent - This looks interesting, I have enjoyed everything I have had from Wicked Weed so far, so i have high hopes here WW El Paraiso - Imperial Coffee stout, love coffee stouts Lastly, the CHALLENGE BEER And the challenge: I don't make it out to beer bars much these days with so many good breweries around and so much great BIF beer at home. I am going to try this but if I don't make it before it's time to send out the next box, I will keep it with the GIF. Unfortunately, the #GIF growler is leaking pretty bad. Flat Tropicalia I got in contact with the manufacturer and they are shipping me some replacement gaskets. I will throw a new one on there and ship some carbonated water or something in it on the next round for a seal/leak check and send an extra growler with the good stuff. Also, @Eziel - your name is barely holding on there! Once it disappears, I guess you are allowed to sign up again lol. I drank some tropicalia but forgot to take a pic for the VBS, so here's what I am drinking right now #VBS Cheers and thanks again @MTKATL Ill try to turn this around before too long. Might wait until the tail end of the shipping window so we can all enjoy the BIF pron first.
Photos from a nice trade I worked out with @Elkevjoe He killed it. First time for all the beers. Nice extras too. Growler is super hop juju.
Then one day later @pnelting ninja boxed me some return fire. Great box and fun receiving ninja style. Another round of all new beers to me.
#VBS I got to share this with @SixThousandDollars who happens to be moving to Florida tomorrow. Thanks so much @Steban !
You are correct sir. Box 1 of 2 is showing delivery tomorrow. Sending a smaller box to hit a couple wants after a trip I am taking this weekend. Hope you enjoy!
Couple awesome boxes there! damn! Thanks for the heads up, I used a Sharpie but who knows.... I'll gladly sign up again -0 or feel free to just write my name back on there!
I am Happy that you liked everything in the box. That is indeed the Cognac Eclipse, and was a futures only bottle. The Barrel Aged Bomb and Oude Tart with Cherries...etc, I pulled off of your want list. Sorry that I ran out of electrical tape right in the middle of packing. That KBS was hot when it first came out, so I put a year of age on it, and now it's delicious. I do appreciate the offer of if I'm ever looking for anything from out there. Likewise, if you are ever hunting anything out on this coast that I have access to let me know. Jason

I had it down to two people, but it was honestly a toss-up between you and @JoeyIce3 so I didn't call anyone out. I even went through the entire list of participants yesterday, crossed off those who weren't in "cold weather" states and (or were and already received their boxes), comparing trade #s, and still couldn't say it was me for sure. In any case, FedEx buzzed my door earlier this morning and my girlfriend confirmed a MI box is awaiting me. It's going to be a long day at work. Pr0n to be posted this evening.
