    Having a Day 0 beer included gives me an idea for my next recipient...

    I call it 13 Days of Fun...It goes from Day -6 to 0 to Day 6

    @dprice dropped this on me! All the extras are new ticks (and new brewery ticks, I think!). Looking forward to getting this started tomorrow

    @Tifore's box arrived last Fri, and damn, I can already guess this will be a heavy task, mostly because the largest bottle in the line-up is labeled as a break day:

    Not an official day 0, but might as well get some practice in.

    Here we go. @Bstagnone dropped a bomb on my porch last night! This looks awesome! I have been warned that this is stout heavy and I am okay with that. I’m excited to get this thing rolling tonight. All of the extras look great too and all are new ticks. Thanks and Cheers!

    @Steban send me this awesome looking box and I jumped right in yesterday with my Day 0 beer - The Watermelon Dragonfruit #chugs. That homemade mead on the end is calling my name. I can't wait to get this party started! Thanks man!

    Day 0 #chugs - There may have been a gunshot or a roofer falling to his death in the background

    @azuelke told me this morning I should switch this out for another day, as he didn’t want me to drink what was suspected to be an oxidized IPA for day 1. However, I decided to give it a go and miraculously it’s fine.

    [​IMG]

    Taste was a little muted, hard to say if it was oxidation or just how I feel about cashmere. Either way, still pretty decent, just not the best I’ve had from 1840.
