@Steban and @blassor tied for the win! Tiebreaker is to guess how much I'm going to spend at jolly pumpkin tonight
Alright, finally made it home and dug into the box waiting for me from @Jwilford23 The line up: Funk Double Citrus - This was good earlier while cutting the lawn, pungent! Sunny Side Up w/ Guajillo, Chili & Cinnamon - Looks good, planning on saving this one for a bit Excited to try all the Troegs options -- The oak aged corked& caged options and the scratch series are fun adds. I haven't had much from Troegs before. Troegs Troegenator Troegs Scratch Series #223 DIPA Troegs Troegenator - Oak Aged Troegs Java Head Stout Troegs Scratch Series #212 Chocolate Stout Troegs Flying Mouflan - Oak Aged Wicked Weed Amorous - Mmmmm Troegs Mad Elf Ale Thanks for the great boxes @Jwilford23 !! I wasn't really expecting much in a second box, this is a nice surprise. The first box was drunk up long ago. BTW, here's another look at the first box he sent me a few weeks ago with all the hops --
Cheers man, hope i was a good Newbie BIF sender. Thanks to @Yourahoser for running it, and thanks to @JNForsyth for getting me involved! And thanks again to @MTKATL for the great beers, haven't had a bad one yet!
I've only got a partial pic of what I sent @Fallingcycle for round 2,but here it is ..... I'm not gonna play the role of enforcer here just show your ProN Gregory with no excuses.
@Jwilford23 just asked to see my dick milk. Odd but acceptable. Anyone that can get Justin two bottles of No Rules will get a box from me that will not disappoint.
Never had a bottle of CBS, have had it on draft and did get a growler fill of it last year. Thought it was good but was a little disappointed in the muted maple taste I had expected to be bigger.
CIF sign-ups are closed. Three whole entries! A winner will be drawn randomly and I'll ship this out after next weekend.
I'd love to try it someday. I see people posting pictures of the bottle, I can't even imagine what it would take to get one.. probably an entire voodoo allotment and more.. way more than I'd be willing to go I'll wait to see if they ever produce it again
@blassor you win! I only spent 63 bucks between the old lady and I. Had to jump across the street and get a couple glasses of Hop Grandslam so we cut it short at Jolly. Send me you details and I'll get a box out to you soon. I'll be out of town from the 26th to the 1st but I will get it out to you asap
The bottles of CBS are nearly 5 years old now, way too old for a coffee stout in my opinion. The draft batch from 2014 was pretty great in early 2015 when I was lucky enough to try it a few times. Hopefully, it'll be back and fresh in the future and you're able to get your hands on some. It was really excellent.
Yeah, CBS is another one I have been trying to get for a while as well. Luckily, the past year or so on here and the BIF's have provided tons of big wants. It's a shame Founder's doesn't do CBS a bit more often.
thinking about it, it's also one of the few bottles I would save, not only for the trophy'ness of it, but, yea, that whole Canadian thing.. (Rush, Triumph, Coney Hatch, Max Webster, April Wine, BTO, etc..) I do agree @KyleDavis , that's a long time for a bottle, I wouldn't want a faded version.. not with the price of admission.
Alright, so I haven't drawn a CIF recipient yet and I've had further interest. Since I'm not shipping until next week, I don't see any reason I can't extend this. Sign-ups will shut down for real at 10 PM tomorrow (Tuesday). Shoot me an email with your shipping details and style preferences if you want a shot at these beautiful cushions! See my previous post (from Friday) for full details.
Congrats Dave! Impressive total there! Sorry I missed that LIF, dig the music format. I've hit about 40 Phish shows which I thought was a bunch! Easy now PA.. I can relate, I've been hiding on Slack too much, miss you guys... I'm firing a ninja box off to one of you fellas tomorrow. I am in the mood to do some cellar cleaning and if it works out, I might just have to make that 2 boxes...
I had Broconut over the weekend. One of the greatest beer labels on planet earth. LFG = Let's F*cking Go!!!!
Didn't realize we had a @MikeCactusGordon among us! Here is a pic from my handshake tick last summer in Nashville
