    Use blots of bubble wrap and pack it tight. Use newspaper to fill in the empty spots

    Yeah, parole officers tend to ask a lot of questions in general.....

    Just packed my my box. Should be dropping it off tomorrow or Monday. All the beer I am sending is from one brewary. One very underrated brewary. And it actually has a kick ass pale. I thought it was an IPA but was wrong. It tastes like an IPA though.

    Cheers

    I actually may throw something in from my personal stash as well. I'll have to see what I can fit in there.

    Good guess. But I just put some random beers in there from my stash. Figured I might as well mix it up.

    Feel free to guess at those as well. I'll be really impressed if you guess them both

    Ive got MBC fever. I just finished a lil one. Great hoppy beer.
    Everything I have had from them has been superb. Except Lunch which is world class.
    I just wish we would see more Lunch in these parts. Hasnt been on the shelf in a couple months.

    Yeah they make some great beer. I can't decide if I like their Mo or Lunch better.

    Well I threw in beers from my personal stash for my BIF package. One of them has been aging for a while. It tasted great last time I drank one.

    You guys move like molasses! :stuck_out_tongue:

    My second box hit its target this morning, my third box will hit (a currently unsuspecting) target on Tuesday! :sunglasses:

    That should just about do it.:grinning:

    BobZ in the flesh (well, not really). You are in the inspiration for this spontaneous BIF! Kudos to you for your superb beer advocacy!

    I think my box is ready to go. Great combination of local and non-local stuff I love. I had to go buy a bigger box because I went a little overboard, but thats part of the fun for me!

    My first hint was that my box was going east.
    My second hint is that, while I've driven through the state its going to, I've never actually stopped there.

    Heading to FedEx tomorrow, assuming they're open!

    I am more excited about my target recieving their box than I am about getting my box.
    I put a great deal of thought into it.

    I also cant wait to see what everyone else gets.

    My box has been dropped off at the UPS store. Should hit my target Wednesday or Thursday.
    First Hint was that my shipment is heading west of me.
    My box contains no sours or winter beers but it does contain one kick ass IPA in can...

    Box is packed up and ready to go to FedEx today. About 20lbs will be dropping on someone's doorstep by the end of this week. :stuck_out_tongue:

    Once we ship, we're not sharing tracking #'s, right? Self-track and keep it a surprise, I assume?
