    Tracking sent, good luck and let me know what you find out.

    I was out at a happy hour (until 8pm) for my best friend at work whose last day was yesterday... Fortunately even sports bars around here have decent beer (Allagash White, Storm King, Pumking)... just don't try to get anything hoppy as it is almost guaranteed to be stale as hell... learned that lesson the hard way.

    I figure you can either turn your display or your head sideways...

    I'll be headed out 12/5-12/9.

    My buddy just moved out there a couple months ago. I'll be staying close to downtown(Medici apts.). I'm sure we can make arrangements to grab a beer while I'm there. :slight_smile:

    Wait - what??

    That was a killer box you sent me and I have MORE treats coming?

    Oregon and Santa Rose have never done me wrong that's for sure:slight_smile:

    Speaking of Black Tuesday allotments... did anyone in this thread that registered for it NOT with the "lottery" this year? I've talked to 10 people that entered this "lottery" and every single person "won" it... doesn't seem like much of a lottery... Maybe they just ramped up production this year... just curious...

    A stealth local dropped a box of awesome on my unsuspecting porch. It included an awesome and potentially my new favorite piece of stemware from Hill Farmstead and a bunch of delicious mostly new to me hoppy nectar from the North East.
    The bottles which won't last through the weekend include:
    Stoneface Brewing Co IPA sounds delicious
    Heady Topper I think I have heard of this one before...
    Cambridge Brewing Company Flower Child Visited this brewery last EBF had a great meal and enjoyed this brew
    Fiddlehead Mastermind only have had 2nd fiddle excited to get into this
    Hill Farmstead Double Galaxy Yes Please! stoked to tick another HF want.

    Thank you so much Mike and be prepared for return fire. Cheers!

    I did not win, and know of a bunch of others who also lost; I was a bit surprised at this loss rate as I was told it's not intended to be so much a "lottery" as a "sane way of processing a thousand orders without crashing our servers" ... maybe demand has significantly increased this year.
