The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

I thought it was super solid. Gave it 4.25. Great aroma, balance and flavor.

 

Would a 2011 and 2013 Westvleteren 12 be ok to replace the Rochefort 10?

 

@jawas 110% I just didn't assume I'd have a remote shot at those, I figured Rochefort would be hard enough. Are you offering? Let me know what you need for them.

@Clarkson just a bit of self deprecation I guess, even with the forgotten bottles I know it was a good box. It just stands up to what you sent a little less. I'll check your German availability and compare to what I can grab, we'll do a swap sometime soonish but definitely after this other bif and my lif boxes, those have to be priority.

 

That is the least desired picture to just jump up when I open this thread. Today wasn't going great, it's now gone further down hill. :shudder:

 

@Lehighace06 I have a 2011 Westvleteren 12 in my closet now, and I have 2012, and 2013 purchased and sitting in Belgium, waiting on when Im have enough stuff to pay for shipping.

 

NO worries, no hurry I'm packed full at the moment as well.

 

Impact in NH. Fortunately, the weather will keep your beer cold, @mklisz

 

Splash down in Vero Beach. PrOn to follow. Cheers

 

You and matt @whyteboy003 seem to have killed it last night!! ISO: Due South stuff FT: Aspirin

 

well if you're willing to part with the 2011 i'd be very appreciative; i've got one of my own but i think it's 2014, so i might take you up on the 2013 when it lands as well. BM me and we'll figure out terms.

 

So Nick and I set up a trade with Not Your Father's Root Beer and Orange Truffle Abduction for some Bomb variants. I didn't even realize his box came in until he sent me a message not long ago.

Holy crap though, I wasn't expecting a damn twelve bottle shipper:



Not Your Father's Root Beer x6 - One of my all time favorite beers. So damn awesome.
Cran-bic - Had a sip of it at a share, glad I get to have my own bottle now! My fiancée will love it.
Thirsty Dog BA Siberian Night - Whoa! Totally wasn't expecting that. The base was good, so I'm pretty excited for this one.
Pipeworks Cinnamon Beer-D Os - Yes! I love cinnamon so much, so stoked to try it!
Orange Truffle Abduction - Excited for this as well, I've only the regular Abduction.
Pipeworks Citra - Whoa! Totally wasn't expecting that either. With Citra being my favorite hop, I can't wait to try it.
Pipeworks Mini Pint Glass - Sweet! I love the smaller size actually.

Damn, @Ncpogs, you totally destroyed it. I was not expecting a box of this magnitude. I apologize for my box getting to you a bit later, but now that you've set the bar, I'm definitely going to have to beat it

Cheers!

 

Pretty sure we could make a mod force this upon @kgncfl as he currently doesn't have an avatar and really should have one.

 

Speaking of avatars, did @PA-Michigander and @Lehighace06 lose a bet or something?

 

At this point, shouldn't you?

@blue-dream?

Lurk in the SWTFYW thread, in fact read over the past couple weeks if you have the chance.

PA is at war with IL, and if you saw our morning avatars (a bomber jet delivering its payload) you could guess that the afternoon's avatars are indicative of something.... the IL "General"'s house literally looks like the avatar (the boxes, not the graffiti)

 

We are winning a battle with some FIBs. Currently there is a very vocal 'leader' of the FIB nation with 11 boxes of beer on his porch. Yes, you read that right. 11 boxes of beer from 7 people in 3 states. Very strategically coordinated.

 

Being a FIB myself, I should seek out this fellow and becomes allies with him. It sounds like he may need some helping destroying some porches in retaliation.

 

FIB?

 

No sir, you may want to remain an innocent bystander!

 

F***ing Illinois Bastards. They claim otherwise but there is a lot of evidence pointing to this being the correct usage.

EDIT: This is not something I made up, it is an actual term used by both Wisconsonites and Michiganders.
