    Turns out, one of the 7 bottles broke while en route. UPS was nice enough to repackage everything and send it along to me, therefore I elected to not open a bottle last night and will open the 6th bottle tonight. Can't wait!

    Noyaux is fantastic - my favorite of the last few releases!

    Unknown by me. My fiance was kind enough to unwrap everything and let Nate know which bottles arrived safely and then wrapped them all back up.

    UPS removed everything that was broken and rewrapped alll of the bottles anyway.

    Wow, i'm really surprised that UPS didn't toss the whole box - thankfully you received the majority of it.

    Exactly. I had no idea anything had even happened, I just figured the 7th bottle hadn't been decided on and it was going to come with the growler.
