    It was from a FB group. Dude makes some pretty cool glasses and they occasionally go up for sale. Had this one for awhile.

    Nice that's sweet dont think I'll ever be in a place to buy one of the Answer glasses but something like that would fill the void

    @MunsonRoyE tossed this Ninja my way and I am hoping to start working my way through this generous treat later this week! Mentioned once I was interested in Barrel Culture and he ran with it! Thanks!

    Little quiet in here.

    @Elkevjoe and @Elneenee hit me with an awesome birthday box! All new ticks besides that 107 which is a favorite. Oh and also kick-ass glassware. Thanks guys

    Then @Bstagnone hit me with a (birthday) box as well with all new ticks. Thanks Tom Brady from Jay Jay Waht

    Per usual, I'm behind again on posting some hauls, so here we go!

    A month or so again, I took my chances and crossed into FIBlandia for a share, and met up with @Bert00 on the way to hand off a few beers. Little did I expect her to be handing me these guys:

    [​IMG]

    Thanks again Amber, completely unnecessary as usual though!

    And while I was as the #FIB share, @max13 snuck these guys next to my bag, in which I found them when I was ready to leave. For some reason, he thought I needed more beer even though I told him to forward them on!

    [​IMG]

    Thanks again DaveMax, I can't wait to share these bad boys!

    Then a couple weeks ago, I came home to a box that was about 4x the size it should have been from @Franfab since all I asked him for was a GPIUFMB of the FFF. I guess I'lljust be bringing more beer to DLD to share than anticipated.

    [​IMG]

    Thanks again Frank!

    Last weekend a handful of us Newbies got together at Toppling Goliath for the Assassin release, and naturally beers were exchanged.

    First, @beermanben handed me a couple cans, and since he took off before @brewnic could get to him, I got his BT crowler.

    [​IMG]

    Thanks again Ben!

    Then, @brewnic through a line of MN Newbies, got me my GPIUFMB Wild Mind FSB bottles from @jonbonfondle:

    [​IMG]

    Thanks again Juan, and @Vidblain for bringing them down to Iowa, too bad you're a lightweight and couldn't stick around longer :kissing_heart:

    And last, @brewnic had his own box of handshake beers for me:

    [​IMG]

    Again Seth, way too generous, but greatly appreciated!

    Also included with the TG was a delivery from @brewnic that was my take from the @Eziel #eziab GPIUFMB. So damn much, I couldn't fit it all into one picture!

    Thanks again for putting everything together as always EZ!

    And finally, this past week, @Greeny87 finally decided to stop toying with my emotions and drop this little NE bomb on me!

    [​IMG]

    Thanks again Dr. Drew, can't wait to start knocking them out!

    Met up with @Sturgeon83 yesterday on his way into WI for some tasty brews, and he came prepared with some handshake beers to drop on me!

    [​IMG]

    Thanks again, and nice meeting up with you Andrew, hopefully we can work something out for later in the week!

    No worries! A beer a day keeps the Dr. away. Or so I've heard.

    I was the fortunate winner of a @HeartofMiami LIF, and he absolutely killed it:

    I killed a bunch of the hops already and they have been excellent. Really looking forward to those 2 stouts in the middle (both wants). Thanks for everything Jared!

    Hey...uh...this thing still on? Couple of haul pics that I'm a bit delayed on. First, @Greeny87 was making a Treehouse run and knowing my parents were visiting I needed to get in on the action. Thanks for sharing the wealth Andrew!

    [​IMG]

    Then, I got Alpaca'd as @LarkinW decided to hit me up with a thank-you box for some Rev cans a while back and dropped this box of deliciousness on me. All new ticks and a new brewery in the form of White Elm, plus the B3K want. Thanks a bunch!

    Good lord its been pretty quite in hear lately, maybe someone should start getting things in order for another #BiF Round???

    Until that happens, I have some hauls that need to be posted!

    First, a couple weeks ago, @CBrodbeck hit me with a "thank you" box for some of the GPIUFMB boxes I have sent him. Once again Chuck, completely necessary, but greatly appreciated!

    [​IMG]

    This past Saturday I got together with a couple other Newbies at Mikerfest, and I had asked @wolfpac255 to hook me up with a couple things, the pair of Phase 3 cans being one. Naturally he doesn't know when to stop and added two more cans into the mix! All are not long for this world, thanks again Eric!

    [​IMG]

    Then this past Sunday, I had planned to meet up with @hardysf for some day drinking since I was in town. Naturally, he felt the need to drop a few beers on me. and then for good measure, a couple two three more on top of it. Thanks again Sven, for the beer, good time, and special breakfast :kissing_heart:

    [​IMG]

    As it turns out, @brightcloud313 lives like 5 minutes away and tagged along for the day. Thankfully he wasn't prepared and only drop a delicious 4pk on me. Thanks again Dave (although I know you wont see this)!

    Quiet time (or FedEx :stuck_out_tongue:) doesn't stop @azuelke from slinging boxes...

    [​IMG]
    All new ticks of course. The Untitled Art BA Hazelnut crowler went down too easy and looking forward to trying the latest Rum Barrel Coconut Porter along with all the others!

    No "thank you" box necessary but much appreciated as always. Good thing you can still get FedEx deliveries at work:grinning:

    Thanks Adam!

    Hey guys. So I was referred to this group by @Burrass .....would love to get in on the next BIF. Have been trading with Matt for going on 4 years now. Living in Buffalo, after moving from Boston last summer. Some good up and coming breweries in this area (Thin Man, Froth, Old First Ward, 42 North) Not far from Rochester (Other Half, Mortalis, Fifth Frame) and still have all my Boston connections( Trillium, TreeHouse, etc.) Also, 3 Sons just bought a building in the area....looking forward to that as well. So a good amount to offer.

    So again, would love to join the group, and looking forward to whatever is next. Thanks!
