    Three more hauls to post. Thanks @Dave_Treat , @erjaq and @PJ_ for the wonderful beer for this weekend! Gonna be in the 60's in Feb in Chicago, so definitely going to enjoy the hoppy beers now.

    Great Jackie O's



    New ticks - Kane Mexican Brunch and Highland Park is a great brewery!



    Mr. Treat - can't say enough!

    So for those of us who participated in the playoffs stage of this awesome BIF(thanks again to @Summer78 for running it) the ante to get in was a nice bomber of somwhat limited release stuff and a couple of locals.

    I got the first of my two playoff boxes from @Damian74 today,, and he had put up the Eclipse as his ante. He included some nice Westbrook IPAs as well as he's now very local to Westbrook. (Nice!)

    Very stoked to try both as they're new to me.

    Apparently though Damian has a different idea of what a "couple of locals" means as he also included these three lovelies, any one of which coukd have stood alone as his bottle ante. Damian is one of the nicest and most generous BAs I've met here on BA, can't thank you enough for the over the top generosity.

    Cheers Brother!

    Seeing all these lovely shots has reminded me I forgot to post the boxes that came in this week. So to contribute to the excellence here are a couple more. These are from @erjaq and @bigaltemple respectively. I've already started digging in with the Firestone Peach Saison and the Carton Churro. Both the wife and I really liked the saison and while she didn't care for the Churro, I thought it was amazing. By far the best cream ale I've ever had.

    The Cerberus crowlers are Elysiam and Tiny. Looking forward to trying Cerberus' take on a NE style IPA.

    This marks the official halfway point, at box 7 & 8 of 16. Just when I had some time to drink some of this down and make room in the fridge, things have spilled out into boxes on the floor. Everyone is crushing it.

    Thank you Eric and thank you Al!

    Florida bomb damage report. Tons of Cigar City and Funky Buddha goodies to enjoy. Cannot wait to try Big Sound, this one likely won't make it past the weekend! The crowler is Fixie. Thanks Greg!

    N.Y. and New England goodies! I was hoping for some Nugget Nectar and some Alchemist. Always wished we had access to these in MI. Excited to try the others. Thank you @cosmo4u!

    One of the most diverse boxes yet landed today. Everything from saison to ipa to red to barrel aged and more. Those sours sound delicious and 2012 BC :grimacing:, wow! Thank you @duceswild!!

    Huge shout out of thanks to @SP23 as I received my second and final box from the playoff bottle wager. Very excited to try the 2011 Black Tuesday as I've only had it fairly fresh. Once again the generosity of you guys overwhelms as the rest of this overabundance of hops is supposed to be "a couple of locals". Looking forward to sharing these this Huna Day weekend!

    Got an awesome box from @bbothen last Saturday for my 7th place finish!

    Already drank the Swamis and 2 of the Modern Times beers. That Tusk and Grain Blend 2 sounds really good! Excited to try Black Tuesday again as well!

    Cheers and thanks again!

    Forgot to mention @bbothen also sent a Left Eye Right Eye DIPA from Track 7 that sadly did not survive the journey... but all the beers are great!

    Not to spam this thread again, but some more boxes have come (and an old one I never posted).

    This one came from @GehenHerzog. I was holding off posting it since he was sending another box. That box was delivered according to FedEx, but never made it into my hands :slight_frown: Not sure what happened there.
    [​IMG]

    Next from @JoeyIce3. There was also a second box on this one, but I was a blur last week and forgot to take a picture of it. But that doesn't mean I won't drink it! :slight_smile:
    [​IMG]

    And finally, from @KevinMc79 that reminds me why this BIF is dangerous. So. Much. Beer.

    Thanks for everything guys! Sorry I took a while to post your boxes!
