2014 NFL 33 Club

Maybe we should finally meet and share these beers? Have you had the Gratitude yet?

 

Sounds about right. I had a 'hunch' he was finding that for you, so I apologize for not coming through myself as I said I would try to; like Nick, I found it to be a not very easy bottle to find.

Your request made me really wish I traded less to get an Atrial earlier in the year, I'm not one for caring much about bottle 'value' but I'm pretty sure that was pretty lopsided... don't get me wrong, I'm still happy to have an Atrial, and at the time I'm not sure if much else I had access to would have gotten it done, so I don't regret the deal for the deal's sake, only because it prevented me from hooking you up much more easily than it was.

also: those bottles are so god damn cool. I saw a video of how they do it and it's so damn labor intensive, but worth it imo.

 

Have not had it yet, would love to meet up at some point!

 

I had no idea either of you were on the hunt. My wife always tells me I missed the hints. I do very much appreciate it.

Any chance you got a link to that video?

 

Yeah you and I talked about it a while back and I said I'd see what I could do; as I expected the bottle shop where I got the one for my Atrial trade didn't have any available and that was my main lead. Some other local guys and local-ish trading partners also came up empty, which I wasn't too surprised about; as you know it's a pretty awesome bottle with a low count and insta-whale status. One of my goals in life is to do a vertical of the whole set, or at least a decent part of it.

I'm very glad Nick was able to make it happen for you!

I'll look for the video, might've been an instagram post though.

pretty sure this is it:

I'm in. I don't mind driving up. Any idea's of a good place to have it?

 

Milwaukee, WI

 

Well @hansenm72 lost his mind and went stupid hard. Box 6 of 7 was a biggin. I kept thinking this couldn't be for the NFL hit, its just too much beer, so damn generous. Thank you so much man!

 

Glad it all made it... Not too much I could do for you in the wants dept, but hopefully some of it is enjoyable!

 

Ehhh... central PA? Baltimore? Delaware with a big visit to DFH brewpub included??

 

Dropped off a mini-ninja box this morning of wants for someone in this thread... beating Santa to the punch!!

 

Now that sounds like a plan. Maybe sometime in Jan (just need to worry about weather)?

 

A lovely box of Texas beers from @Indytruks138 meant for @Dave_Treat appeared on my porch. @bigaltemple stepped up and will send to Dave instead of sending to me.
