    My two boxes went to a business address, so they haven't been delivered yet with the holiday.

    What a generous tip what only 10,000 combinations :wink: Though I'd say going through them all is worth it for one of your boxes.

    Thanks man, I had to swap out my planned Good Gourd for that Terrapin as for some reason I couldn't find any GG at the last minute. And if it's not obvious, the "I've outgrown this" was the SA Cream Stout, although I still find myself going back to it from time to time; it's a beer that used to be my favorite about 20 years ago. At any rate, really glad you like the box!

    Awesome box. Aaron's notes for the beers are great, he really puts a ton of time and though into that. That tulip glass looks great BTW, think I'm going to seek one out.

    On a separate note, how about that table you took the photos on. That looks really cool with all the labels. How do you have the labels affixed? Got anymore photos of that :wink:
