    Somehow I thought this BIF ended on July 20. I looked a little closer, and see that it's the 26th. I'm leaving on a road trip on the morning of the 25th. No worries whatsoever if it's not here by then. The only downsides will be no pictures for 10 days or so and my little will have to carry the boxes in.

    Trying to hit the big 4 in the Cleveland area on Thursday the 25th: Hoppin' Frog, Brew Kettle, Fat Heads and Great Lakes. Unfortunately, I can't bring much back because I'll be camping in the hills of West Virginia for a week after that.

    Oh, I'll be up to no good alright. Drinking Ohio beer, cussing, and playing the Devil's music. Here's me and some friends at the same event a few years back (I'm the guy standing up).

    Eagles are flying high. =D Target 2 should be landing Thursday w/ note in box. Target 1, looks like Weds. Note is on my living room floor. Boxing fail!!!!! I think you know who its coming from regardless, though.

    I am glad you enjoyed the box. I was probably capable of just hitting wants, but some local distro stuff is always good to have. I figured on the Kopi it would be the WTF beer of the box. I have had it a few times and it is awesome. Just trying to share the love. The Pure Hoppiness is always a favorite of mine.

    Thanks so much Hastur23! You certainly know what's what. This was a helluva box and I'm looking forward to all the great brews. Hopefully I can find some way to repay you. Thank you again!!!

    Now that one of my targets has been warmed up, it's time to finish that porch off.

    I suppose this will just add to the Surprise! Porch sex!

    Looks like my boxes are not in such a big hurry. Target one, you're now expected delivery tomorrow. Target two, Monday.

    It's so easy to ignore the rest of the BA site when you're waiting on hints and hauls! LET'S GET SOME EYE CANDY UP PEOPLE!

    Agreed. It's turning out to be a really crappy day at work. Some pictures of beer or even descriptions of hauls would go a long way towards getting me through this shitstorm until I get home tonight where I can commence my drinking to forget strategy.
