    Box is in the mail via Canada post!

    If all goes well my target should have it Friday. No more hints for now. I'll drop a good one later in the week.

    I'm laying the blame of the lack of marshmallows at the feet of our newborn :slight_smile:

    And now I hang my head in shame for making you choose...:slight_frown:. I blame it on low blood sugar.

    I suspected that Electros' box might have been coming my way, and it has arrived! Of course it's going to make it difficult to work this afternoon. I'll post a pic tonight after I crack it open!

    More shopping done at lunch today...acquired some solid Ontario offerings and a one off or two. Will be filling up the rest of the box with things from the cellar.

    Hint # 4: its hard to find Canadian wants for you...because you don't have any listed...but like me enjoy good beer that you haven't rated...so really not that hard at all :slight_smile:

    Just dropped off my box at FedEx!
    I think it's around 235oz + swag!

    Another hint is that Marcus told me that my target has an impressive cellar but should enjoy my box!

    Box dropped off. Totalled out at 262 oz. Managed to squeeze a bit of swag in too. Should arrive in a very flat place on Thursday.

    100% local.

    Acquired some silly harvest beer today. Sadly that means my box will now only be 278oz

    Lots of boxes going out today, add mine to the list!

    7 locals (6 are good, one is just ...we'll call it the "interesting" beer). Went for a mix of stuff that I like and no repeats from previous BIF's. Hint: There's no Sartori Harvest in the box. It's okay though, I scored a few today and will drink one tonight while thinking of my target! Cheers bud! :sunglasses:

    Box is packed up and ready to go, should go out tonight or tomorrow at the latest.
    My targets a little vague or wide open depending on perspective, not many local sours in these parts so I had to throw in a few European brews for him. The West will be well represented in this box, enjoy!!

    I picked up the marshmallow replacement beer today which takes my box to 8350ml (~283oz) including a fresh growler and it should be going out in a day or two.
