    I got the mustard!!!!

    Great box from iguenard has shown up safe and sound. Nice touch of sprinkled dry hops on the Styrofoam as I opened the box. Great swag included with the amazing beer. I will post a picture tonight when I get home. It is hard to explain to co-workers why I am taking pictures of beer at my cubicle.

    Thanks again Ian for the great box!!!

    I was able to finish my shopping at lunch today (the final bottle I wanted to include only hit stores today), so I will be sending my box out tomorrow.

    Waiting to pick up one last bottle of hoppy goodness before shipping. Should be off tomorrow or Friday at the latest.

    I'm in the same boat as magerob, we'll likely ship at the same time. Having seen what he's shipping, I can say to both our respective targets - it's going to be worth the wait :slight_smile:

    Hah. That is how I felt when I sent you yours last week! :slight_smile: there's something about sending a box in a BIF that makes you feel really really good.

    I just had this last week thanks to @hoppypocket. Was great. I was surprised that it didn't have higher scores.

    I got one of those in my box too; looking forward to it! Another tasty Quebec saison I tried recently was the Brasseurs Illimités Saison Chaude. It was on the drier side and had more grassy notes (IMO), but was really drinkable with a nice amount of complexity.

    Stuck late at work + my son's judo lesson = will pick-up the package tomorrow.

    Still very curious since I can't decipher the hints.

    Someone's package has arrived at their local postal facility out west. Hope you enjoy your goodies! I didn't leave a note but I included abottke opener from a now defunct Ottawa brewery I worked at for a summer.
