One for the Noobs: Hints and Hauls

So I may have lost track of exactly how much beer I had set aside for my target. I started packing up the box today and found that my target will be receiving 14 beers totaling in 254.4 oz. (Oops/fuck the rules) with 2 wants covered. The rAvg for the box is 4.16 with 11 of the 14 beers over 4.0. Of the 3 bottles under 4.0, 1 is a 3.99, 1 is a want, and 1 is the base beer for the barrel aged version that my target will also be receiving. I think he will be happy with his haul but I hope he is ready to throw his drinking shoes on. It will be dropped off to Fedex tomorrow.

 

The Eagle Has Landed!



Cross funkyaudio off your lists, ladies and gentlemen. More photos as the unboxing progresses!

 

What's the matter, can't find a knife or scissors?
We've been waiting over 2 hours to see what kind of Chicago land goodies you've got in there.
Don't mind me, I just have to live vicariously through your haul until a similar box shows up here

THANK YOU funkyaudio, you made my week. What a great box. I took my time while opening this, and my daughter (and cats) had as much fun with the bubble wrap as I did pulling the beer out...

Like Christmas in February! Cheers!

 

Ask and you shall receive.

 

Thanks--I feel better now.

 

Anticipation makes everything better.

 

my box is on its way north, should be there thursday. i covered 3 wants, and included 4 bottles of barrel aged goodness. more hints to follow...

 

Just dropped off my package, starting its valiant journey towards my target. Hint: My target lives in a state that is home to two colleges that have rivalries with the one I attend. One of these rivalries is athletic and the other is academic.

 

Glad you liked everything and that it all made it safe and sound.

 

As far as I can tell, There is still a 20% chance that I'm really excited by this news.

 

Thank you jp110099!! Arrived last Thursday.

 

What beer is that to the far left? What brand of water is that?

 

*sigh* I know, right?

 

It's Maine Beer Co.'s Mo. Bottled 01/03/13 if I remember correctly.

 

Damn... When I first saw this I thought I was getting some beer today...

 

I picked up two more bottles and some brewery swag this weekend and I saw another one of my target's wants at the store, so I will be picking it up in the next day or so. I should be shipping by next Monday at the latest, but hopefully sooner. My beer is going to a state that does not have a NHL team.

 

Every time I look out the window & see this my heart skips a beat.

 

Back from vacation and box all packed up. Dropping it at FedEx tomorrow AM. It will be heading west but will stop before it reaches the Rockies.
