    I don't know if they'll let it ride, but I bought one on Friday while it was a secret stash, then another when it went public. Anyone ever tried that before? They charged me twice, and both show in my crate, but I wouldn't be surprised if they refund me during packaging.

    That's awesome. I tried and it said I already had one in my crate.

    Just say you forgot. And if you receive it and they ask for it back...well. you lost it in a boating accident

    In case anyone was wondering, I haven't received the crate yet, but according to the receipt and whatnot, both bottles made it in.

    Now a "Secret Stash" is a seltzer. WTF

    Didn't I get all those old Gratitudes from you? I believe I still have a 2006!! I also picked up the 2017 from Tavour and 4x of the 2021 cans arrived today (trade).

    Oh boy, that was a loooooong time ago, but I don't think that was me. I never had easy access to them. Never saw 2017, got 2018 and 2020. You gonna open that 06 soon??

    Don't know if this the case but Tavour stopped shipping to Michigan because of state law prohibiting alcohol shipment into the state.

    Which batch of rock? We all know b1 > b2.

    Seriously though, Tavour has been bringing the heat on me lately: TO, some BA Creature Comforts, Fremont 12th Anni, Cycle Saturday. I even passed on Gratitude and a BB barleywine whose name and brewery escape me at the moment- it was something really well regarded though.

    EDIT: maybe it was Alesong Maestro?

    Also, what does it take to get the Secret Stash? It's definitely not something I aspire to, just curious more than anything.

    This thread just makes me sad anymore that Tavour stopped delivering to me. I missed out on Alesongs double barrel maple rhino suit which I was looking forward.

    It was Mexican chocolate rock. I haven't seen any of those. I keep getting a LOT of slushy sours, seltzer, and meads. And lots of neipa. I did have the Fremont Anni drop on my feed, but it also dropped at my local shop.

    Wait, is that a real beer? I don't even know what I'm doing anymore.

    I definitely get a lot of seltzers and pastry sours. Literally styles I never buy. Plenty of hops that are attractive, but that's not going to make me start a box. The moment I drop coin and start a new box though, the algorithm changes. This is my 3rd box and it's become so predictable. I also seem to get more beers in my feed the closer to the ship date. Sometimes 9-10 beers per day.

    I can NOT believe I never rated it back in the day. That said, I just checked, I have a 2007... That should be pretty cool to open with the 2017 and the new cans once the weather starts to cool down.

    Damn... I have to try to figure out who sent those East End to me. So many good traders back in the day.

    Hope life is treating you well my friend... Long time friend!!

    Good luck, you were busy back in the day! Life is treating me far better than I deserve. Hope you are well. Enjoy your upcoming b-wine tasting my friend!

    Humor us peasants that don't have secret stash. What WW specifically?

    I got Parabola. Which is always enjoyable, but I get distro of locally, so meh. Was excited to see this year's is a blend of BT bourbon, Templeton rye, and W12 barrels.
