    Just finished packing up my box. A little over 200oz of barrel aged liquids, plus some extras that aren't barrel aged to give your palate a break :wink:

    Will be heading to a state where its the reverse letter abbreviation of what Santa says and also a name for a women that bangs a lot.

    It's going to be a few days yet before I ship my box out. I'm waiting for a certain Christmas carol my target would like to hear.

    Glad it all got there safely, Enjoy! I'll get a swag box out to you next week after I hit up releases on the 6th and 8th. In fact I'll be getting swag out to you and people I owe swag to in two other BIFs.

    an awesome box of mostly foreign barrel aged beers arrived safe and sound yesterday:

    Girardin Faro (never had)
    8 Wired Batch 31 BA Imp Coffee Stout (never had, sounds delicious)
    3F Oude Gueuze (green label)
    Cantillon Mamouche (want, i LOVE this beer)
    The Bruery White Chocolate (want, never tried)
    3F Oude Gueuze Golden Blend (great beer)
    HaandBryggeriet Haandbakk (never heard of this)
    Cantillon 100% Kriek Bio (mmm 'loons)
    B Nektar Dark Dark Goose (the description of this is INSANE)
    Surly Darkness tulip (awesome)

    I never know what to expect from BIFs and you seriously crushed it man. Half of these beers I've never had and a couple of them I've never even heard of. Very thoughtful and well planned box, thank you!

    Picture up next.
