    1. The growler is your Christmas Ale
    2. Hope you don't have nut allergies, didn't think of that earlier, Beer Nuts were born and still manufactured in my town so it seemed like a natural fit.
    3. The pot holder is a D!*% in a box reference, didn't think an actual box would work.
    4. You're welcome! Really had fun putting this together for you.

    I received my package and also sent mine out today. 29 + lbs and should arrive Saturday to a state south of me.

    12 oz bottles:
    Troegs Mad Elf x 2 (one of my favorites)
    North Coast Old Rasputin x 2
    Bell's Best Brown x 2
    Bell's Christmas Ale x 2
    Bell's HopSlam (always a want)
    Fat Head Holly Jolly Holiday Ale x 4

    Big Boys:

    Lavery Devil Bird Holiday Ale (looks fantastic!)
    Jolly Pumpkin Noel De Calabaza Special Ale (again looks incredible!)

    The Swag:
    A hideous sweater with a scarf ATTACHED to it and a stain on the back (the best part IMO)
    A "Terrible Towel" (I'm assuming you're taking a shot at my Eagles fanhood?)
    And the goofiest looking portable ketchup packet I've ever seen!
    And a "JAG OFF" sticker!

    Awesome box man, I really appreciate it! CHEERS!

    Glad you caught the stain...after creating said sweater I realized it would barely fit a child=winning. I have enjoyed everything from Jolly Pumpkin and the Lavery just came out from my local shop (vintage 2011 I believe), I will be excited to try that over the holidays.

    After seeing the steel hint I now have put two and two together. Cannot wait for their arrival!

    despite the weather, my box seems to be on track to have a Grand time in Michigan tomorrow.

    Yea I thought it looked a bit on the small side. I'm definitely going to have to get a pic of me wearing it now.
