    Hahah, that sounds just mean.... the deal with BBB is that my gf and I both really like it but we drove through Utah on the way back from GABF and I picked up a bunch at the brewery - I have like 10 bottles. You could have sent one - it is a favorite!

    The Citra might be nice to open at 5050, decisions!

    My targets package was left at the front door. Someone on the west coast will hopefully be getting it shortly.

    Feel free to open up that growler if you want before Saturday. It's countered pressure, but I'm not sure how long the carb. will be good. It's not an IPA though. The name on the cap is not the name on BA.... :slight_smile:

    My box is still on schedule to land tomorrow, in a place where it should be low 40's and partly cloudy.

    As for the growler - your call. I'd say it's fine to wait another 2 days given the beer inside, but everybody else seems to be opening their first present early (and I've *burp* already finished mine), so fair is fair.

    Bottles numbers are marked in sharpie in colors that kind of blend in with the wrapping paper.

    Im gonna guess this all came from rjm217. Im stoked. Thanks for making this jewish guy excited for Channukah again. I figured i would combine the picture of the package along with a picture of my visicooler which is near capacity. The light is only on for the picture and that Lindemans is my wife's so please dont judge (even though it is quite tasty :slight_smile:

    Some tasting looking bottles in there!! Looks like a couple bottles got unraveled a bit! I have a pretty good guess of bottle number 7 ... :slight_smile:

    Yes, that is my very impressive wrapping job. Dang I wish I would have seen the fridge pic before, I would have swapped out a bottle, maybe 2 if I can see straight. Oh well, still good beer, maybe you were saving to drink for a special occasion and will now have an extra :slight_smile:

    The growler is Thirsty Trout Porter, since it's not marked, and you might wonder what you are drinking.

    I'm gonna guess it's a Founders beer you are referring to. I just had a trade come through with 4 FMB and 2 Bolt Cutters, but one can never have enough beer regardless. I'm really looking forward to the porter. I have the homebrew recipe in a magazine and have thought about brewing it, and hopefully will now.

    Dang, I saw a lot of wants for Founders, it's still all good beer in my opinion. Well I'm hoping you don't have bottles 1, 3, 4, 7, and 8. Feel free to mix up the order if you want to be surprised by those beers.

    Ain't no shame in a splash of Lindeman's poured into a nice stout...

    My box is on the truck for delivery today! It should be pretty obvious to my target by now...
