    Yeaaaaaah I wouldn't trust anybody with the last name adler. You should probably dispose of that box immediately!

    I love the wrap-job...they look like 7 lil' hostages! :slight_smile: Not opening these immediately is pretty much going to be the hardest thing I've ever done.

    Haha, no big deal, I was trying to throw you off :slight_smile: .

    Though I've been stalking my tracking, and it's still not delivered. I guess the west coast is 3 hours behind me though.

    HAHA, if you ever want to see your beer again, send 20,000 in unmarked bills. You should have included todays paper as proof of life.

    The Growler, which was not my first choice, is thier Summit IPA. It is really pretty solid, but I was hoping to send the Free State Old Backus. It was on-tap according to twitter. I called and they said it had kicked and "they didn't know when it would go back on" so I went with a local place. Then on Friday when I shipped, the post the tap list and guess what was back? Oh well, such is life.

    Drink up on the growler and I hope you chose wisely as you select the order that you drink your hostages!

    Sad, Google maps doesn't even have street view for my targets address so i cannot post some fancy picture.

    Box was delivered at 2 pm today.

    I hope you enjoy the box, i heard you received a "rough" box on your last BIF so hopefully this makes up for it a little.

    Cheers

    Hint: Enjoy the party tomorrow (as if you don't know who you are already!)

    I had to put my haul in the closet, so I wouldn't see it daily and be urged to just rip off a piece of wrapping paper to see if I could guess the bottle. This waiting is so difficult!!

    Sooooo my box just got ripped open from Mista! That was a big box kid! I'm sure it will be great - I can't wait to tear in. You can't find a street view because it is in the sticks on 10 acres :wink: but we are a few miles from Broad Street if you wanna google that. I have a 2nd box from MN to tide me over, mmm fresh Abrasive!

    So now...the waiting!

    Who else is still waiting for boxes? I know there are a few that haven't landed yet.

    Oh the growler is Citra. After that failed attempted to get you something from Thirsty Pagan (since both you and i have never tried anything from them) i went with a reliable company but you already had Masala Mama. Toss that beast in the fridge and drink ASAP!

    Sorry for the ghetto wrapping, i was in a hurry to get it out in order to make the Dec 5th deadline!

    Nice! Can't wait to try it - probably won't be until Friday or Saturday anyway! I'll pop it in the fridge though.

    No problem on the wrapping :wink: it won't make the beer taste worse!

    I was going to play a nasty joke on you and send you a RARE box with something else inside, Big Bad Baptist, but then you took it off your profile under "always want" after i bought it and i saw you sent one out in a different BIF so that planned got axed. Well that and i couldn't find another bomber worthy of sending.
