    No no no, don't worry about it. No thank you box, please. Send along to someone else, if you're going to send a box! I'm on my way to Florida for a week pretty soon - more beer in my fridge is the last thing I need at the moment!

    Or conversely, you could send him the beer so that it arrives right after he gets home from his vacation so he doesn't have to restock himself.

    I think their hazy stuff DOES tend to be that color. The IPArk is super limited -- Sloop opened a new "satellite" brewery at a former IBM manufacturing facility ("Sloop at The Factory") -- it's now a complex called IPark, and IPArk was a special one-time only release the day they opened.

    Just got home, and found a box on my porch from Georgia. BIFs are the best! Was not expecting this at all. Pictures and details to follow later tonight.

    Honestly, the last couple of cans in your box weren't anything special -- more like "filling up space in lieu of packing material"

    [​IMG] Blake - thanks for the ninja box! All new ticks and mostly new breweries. You nailed my fav styles as well!! Really looking forward to digging into these.

    From right to left:

    Prairie Artisian Ales - Peanut Butter Roasted Coffee Stout (interesting combo, looking forward to seeing how these two flavors play together)

    Cherry St - Col Juice Intergalactic IPA

    Cherry St - Steppin Razor

    Orpheus - Fruits of Pomona (sour with apricots - two of my favs)

    Westbrook - Rinse/Repeat Ekuanot (looking forward to this, not sure if I’ve had Ekuanot hops before)

    Burial - Dawn for the Departed

    Creature Comforts - Imperial Trop Haze

    There will be retaliation for this box. You won’t be expecting it; just know that it’s coming sometime in the not so distant future.


    Cheers!
    Bill

    Awesome NINJA box @SouthernSips That Hex Cloud is fantastic! I forget what I rated it on Untapped but it was up there.

    I have yet to open the Stella Obscura..but I am looking forward to it.

    Bill,

    Glad the box made it safely and sincerely hope you enjoy them! The Cherry streets are both solid every time I’ve had them. I have not tried that Orpheus sour so let me know your thoughts.

    Cheers to enjoying the beers!

    Blake
