CANBIF - From the Cellar, 2022! (Round IV)

To my target-- your box will go out this weekend! I'm sorry I'm cutting it close to the deadline... all great things take time, lol. The main holdup was that I ordered some beer from a brewery in my province that is a few hours away which they don't distribute to my area, but it took them a week to get here (courier mishap delayed things, but they finally arrived)!

 

Dear target.

As I mentioned to @Electros , I’ll be shipping right at the end of the window. I’m planning to send UPS overnight though.

I hope it will be worth the wait!

 

Amazing haul!!! Those Third Moon's sold out within a minute! I recently had the birthday bestowed and you're in for a treat.

 

Hope you will enjoy them. Cheers!

P.S. check the Sweet Release. There are many beers with the same name but different barrels. Might be not exactly the same you had before.

 

two boxes packed up, labels printed and pick up ordered for tomorrow at noon.

One box is headed to a surprisingly large (and massively underrated) prairie town, birth place of one of the greatest people this country has produced, hometown of one of my all time favourite bands and current hometown on one of the best three piece rockn'roll bands working today.

One box is headed to the hometown of a sportsball team that recently crushed a boston based sportsball team 28-5 (eff boston sportsball teams, right?), there was a spectacular infield grandslam. It was something to see. There is also *checks notes a tower here and a lake. I think RUSH might be from here but I couldn't be bothered to google it so... maybe don't lead with that nugget during watercooler chats on monday.

Sorry to my targets for waiting til the last possible moment to ship. I hope you enjoy the boxes.

 

Thank you very much!! I already drank the first Sweet Release, but may have the bottle kicking around still to compare-- good tip!

Thanks Tbadiuk for the very generous and super fun box! Excited to try everything but especially excited to try some kilter big beers.

 

To my sender-- your box was dropped off with CP on Sunday (July 24)!

Final hint: Your town shares its name with a beer!

 

Salut,

Sorry for the delay... Vacation.. Covid, Kids... I've got busy for the past weeks.

For my target, we did some trade in the past and we met one time when I was in your town for work. You really love one bruery from my province and if you could be there all the time, you would do it for sure.

I will drop your box tomorrow for this week delivery

Best regards

 

I will join the group of apologizers!
For my target, your box is on its way.
Your address shows one thing, but google maps show another.... I hope it makes it ok : )
At first glance at the map I thought you lived in Edmonton, so many river valleys, but you are much further east!

Cheers

 

Hark, a second box appears.

2021 Fremont Cinnamon coconut b-bomb
2021 Sierra Nevada BA Narwhal
2017 Bruery Saule
2021 Cabin Luna & Fuego tequila ba mexican hot chocolate stout

Thanks sender for the fun box! Bbomb variants are always a very welcome bottle in my house hold. Looking forward to opening one or two of these this weekend! Thanks again!

 

I'm glad it made it safe and sound, I hope the Rodenbach is fresh enough for your liking
You didn't want a 11 year old bottle so I'm hoping 5 years isn't over the hill for your taste!! LOL......

 

Amazing box arrived safe and sound yesterday! A huge thanks to my sender for some amazing stuff! My wife, a non-beer drinker, is also really looking forward to sharing the mead and ice wine (as am I).

 

A Deal With the Devil!!

 

I was targeting the same bottle. What a nice one!

 

I had an extremely generous sender. Thanks again (not sure who you are yet).

 

Box arrived just now! Courtesy of @Tmappin I believe. Great stuff. I’m a big fan of Stillwell and Cognac barrel stouts. I haven’t had anything from Pen Druid since Witchstock in 2018. Also really looking forward to opening that Barleywine with your name on the label!



North x Benjamin Bridge Saison Pinot’16
Pen Druid III ‘18
Tatamagouche Solitude Cognac BA Imp. stout.
Delta Force Operation Forge Stock Ale
Stillwell Gosh BA Farmhouse Ale

Cheers and many thanks!


To my target. I informed @Electros of the delay in getting your box shipped. Apologies. Serious medical issue in the family. I will send overnight on Tuesday. I’m hoping the contents will make the wait worthwhile.

 

A huge thanks to @Ferris for this box!

 

Big thank you to @Long813 (I think?) for this haul! Looking forward to trying them all!
