    The Forgotten Boardwalk is brand ass new. Their grand opening was this past weekend.

    I was trying to get Old Viscosity, but there wasn't any around.

    Damn, lot's of award quality pr0n tonight!

    Unfortunately my target's pr0n is going to be delayed a week. Life got in the way and I was not able to get my boxes together before I leave for some much needed R&R tomorrow. I will get the boxes packed up and on their way when I return next week.

    Speaking of targets....mine seems to have excluded me from their list for some reason. I reviewed my hints and don't think it is my error, but I have been wrong many time before. Anyway...I'm going to enjoy my visit to his state this weekend and hit up several breweries. Maybe when I return I will post some pics as hints.

    What do you have to say about Forgotten Boardwalk? I am quite intrigued by it.

    I never tried a Old Viscosity yet but, when I will, I will be able to compare it very well with the very good Older Viscosity.

    Make sure you share the NG Fruits with the wife too, mine loves them (and really isn't into craft beer much)

    That's great to know, I've been unintentionally sitting on a couple, and I was starting to worry I was ruining them.

    I will have to agree with @Lehighace06 . NG fruit beers are your best friend to make sure your wife is ok with your beer obsession.

    I will "third" this... my wife hates beer generally :slight_frown: but she likes NG fruits... and Consecration... and Cantillon... which is good for me :slight_smile:

    The IPA is very solid. It's a more balanced style, but I think it is excellent. The Wit is good, but that is a style that just doesn't grab me anymore.

    It's a great start. Hopefully they keep improving!

    And a little bonus ****. My errands were picking this up:

    After seeing this gigantor box, just some advice for everyone in general. Keep your boxes (even if you have to send mutliple) under 3 cubic feet for shipping purposes.... The rates with FedEx skyrocket once you go above this volume.... In general a 16" x 16 x 16 box is just a little bit under 3 cubic feet... just for everyone's general knowledge. Cheers!

    :grimacing::grimacing::grimacing::grimacing: Dat set of Eclipses! There shall be no sun for dayyyyyyys (especially not if you drink them all at once, you'll be passed the f out)


    That's SO weird, my wife also enjoyed Classic Gueuze... in general she likes pumpkin beers, Allagash White and other witbiers, fruity anything especially New Glarus.... and Classic Gueuze.... I found it SO bizarre.
    What's that Carton growler/bottle?

    Hot damn ... that'd be my budget for a nice long time, but it's a hell of an awesome collection.

    Great call, I always wondered what the exact qualifications were for using dimensional weight. By the way 16x18x18 is 3 cubic feet on the button, so just stay under that and you're good.

    My fiancée currently has Atrial and La Folie as her favorite beers, so she loves sours as well! It feels awesome.

    Fun fact: I just learned that traditionally, the woman to be married is spelled fiancée, while a man is fiancé. So, I've been implying that I'm marrying a man this whole time. @BlackNotesIII :wink:

    Edit: Carry on, guys. The alcohol has taken over my body.

    That would normally be my budget about every 2 weeks, I used my new motorcycle fund I had saved I could not pass up this beer, and it was either that, or use my one and only credit card...which I am scared of doing for fear of going crazy with my new $5,000 limit they gave me recently. Which is I know is not a lot for some of yall, but who is the crazy person over at wells fargo that decided to give a 23 year old a credit card to begin with, much less a 5000 limit. I have to have my gf/fiance hold it for me so I don't use it, cause I would most likely get me a new gaming comp, and $1000 worth of beer within the first day.

    I had about 700-800 saved up for a new bike, so i can upgrade off of my ninja 750. I think beer was a wise choice.... I just cant believe how much it cost to ship across the pond.

    Drunken ramblings
