One for the Noobs: Hints and Hauls

Picked up some more barrel-aged goodness for my target. Also planned a trip to the fine town of Munster, IN with my buddies this weekend. My target will get no mercy...

 

On FedEx truck for delivery... Hopefully my target's first post in this thread is a haul pic.

Btw, for anyone with me as their target there are usually people at my house all day so the box probably won't be sitting on the porch at all in the cold.

 

There is a 20% chance that I am super excited to hear this.
I deserve no mercy.

 

Package is on a Truck.
Truck is in Tampa.
Truck is out for delivery.
I seem to be channeling Rorschach.

 

I, too, have a trip planned for Munster IN this weekend...followed by a massive beer tasting when we are done.

So i guess your target won't be getting any of these great beers that are sold in Munster IN.

 

Thanks man great box. Internet issues, phone issues. A long night last night. But great box. Ill list haul later and try to post picks. Excited about the abyss 2010, 2011, 2012 vert.
Thanks
Cheers

 

Sweet, glad to hear everything made it in one piece.

 

Delivered!

Though, not signed for by my target. I hope the signer isn't thirsty!

 

Ring ring as well

 

That moustachiod gentleman is myself! In the process of unpacking, I'll try to get pics up before I leave for work, otherwise it'll be later.

Expect an invoice for the damage to my porch. My landlord probably won't appreciate it!

 

I also am a glutton for punishment.

 

Call in sick to take the pictures. We mean more to you than your piddly job!

 

Left to right:
Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout x2 (been really interested in trying this, as it sounds like a beer thats right up my alley [soon to be mouthhole])
Karbach 003 Hellfighter (never heard of this brewery, but the words imperial and bourbon barrels make my mouth water)
Fantome Hiver (om nom nom nom nom)
A growler of indeterminate origin containing something called lo hefe
2011 cascade sang noir ('bout near shat myself, that badboy is probably in my top 5 sours)
Brooklyn Sorachi Ace (again flying under my radar, but thats about to change)
2012 La Folie (every year i buy a case telling myself im going to ration it out, and every year its gone in less than two months. really excited to get my fix on during the dry season)
Terrapin MooHoo (milk stout, nectar of the gods, nuff said)
Left Hand Milk Stout (see above)
Left Hand Nitro Milk Stout (see above).

And a sweet Karbach Tulip. I can never get enough stemmed glassware.

Boogercrack, thanks so much for this awesome box! I have no idea where to even start. I know my wants list sucks, but you knocked this box out of the park!

 

Glad to see it all made it there, I have bad luck with growlers haha..

The Brooklyn stout I think is best with about 12-16 months on it, s I put two in to play with aging. Drink one now, one next Christmas or so...

That Karbach bb hellfighter is seriously one of the best beers ive ever had from Texas. Only bottling so far and only distrod in Houston. http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/26762/81986

The growler is live oak hef. Pretty much draft only but really great.

You were rather..... interesting to decide a selection for due to your wants and no hads.. the style wants for cascade and milk stouts though were easier..

Im happy that you're satisfied.

 

Yep, purged and counter pressure filled.

 

Box set and shipping Monday. Unfortunatley only able to land one want. I though I had two but misread Barrel aged vs. oak aged and I think they have access to the oak aged version (hint). However the want that I did get I'm sending the whole 4-pack and the rest of the beers average out at ~93, so target should still be more than happy.

 

I've heard really good things about that live oak heffy
