    More beer pr0n non related to BIF. Got a random box in today, took me a bit to figure out where it came from. Talked to a few people I have traded with. One of the guys who sent me a box that had a couple bottle break en route, who I told can just get me back anytime, and does not have to rush to send more stuff. Finally sent me a box a couple months later, completely had forgotten about him.

    Sounds like an oxymoron. Is there a four taverns tripel?

    Kinda does now that I think bout it.


    I as well, but my favorite is their new 750, Le Peche Mode, over the past 2 weeks it has shot up above all their other beers as far as score goes. And, I can see why its a great saison.

    Also, hint to my target your getting 2 or 3 three taverns beers, hope you enjoy them!

    Well, FedEx is indicating my boxes are going to be delivered Saturday, I hope that's the case. 38 total pounds 289 oz and 5 bottles with a 100 rating on BA and a net average of 93.8. Cheers.

    Trying to figure out if my local treats can be spicy or the not spicy version, what say you, Target?

    I eliminated you when you said your target didn't have many wants from Texas, but just in case the number I have is "not many" (everything is bigger in Texas, maybe that includes Wants lists) ... spicy is good by me!

    If you are shipping to someplace midwest, just remember, ketchup is considered spicy up here.

    That's what I'm afraid of, everyone north of the Red River might not like the spicy.

    Ok, maybe just for me (not really about ketchup), but I def would prefer less spicy.

    Not spicy, used to have an ulcer :stuck_out_tongue: Spicy and I don't see eye to eye. Although I'm pretty sure I eliminated you as well.

    Hint #3: Now that it's been figured out, my target will be receiving said bottle.

    I'm just going to pour some fresh Ohio maple syrup all over the inside of the box. Hope that helps.

    Also, checking out a Specs that I've never been to today in hopes of finding my target's last bottle. My target will be receiving his box a week from today.

    Hint 1: Shipping East
    Hint 2: Headed to a state that I consider my home state, even though I wasn't born there, I lived there for over 20 years, I still have family there and I visit frequently...
    Hint 3: The NFL closest to you beat my NFL team this past weekend, I was not happy...
    Hint 4: I credit the largest (by volume) craft brewery in my hometown with originally getting me into craft beer. They are one of the fifty largest craft breweries in the country. I had my "wow" craft beer moment with one of their beers, it was from a series of beers that they brew, of which there have now been 14 distinct beers made, starting in October of 2005, with the latest release being in April of 2014. This particular beer that I loved (and still do) was the 9th in the series of beers, originally brewed as a one-off, but now released annually due to it's excellent reception (and 96 BA rating)
    Hint 5: I think many people have figured it out (especially those in the state that I'm referering to..) but to make it more obvious, I have a rooting interest in a sporting event taking place at 6:25 MST tonight...
