    The box hit my porch so hard, we had our first delivery casualty. Thankfully it did not contain precious beer...

    Jackie O's Brick Kiln
    Covered Bridge One
    Troubadour Obscura
    Beaus 33 1/3
    Amager / Cigar City Orange Crush
    Trou du Diable Le Coq
    Beyond the Pale Birthday Suit
    Beyond the Pale Make'r Dark N'Funky
    Grassroots Brewing Convivial Suarez
    Dunham Saison du Pinacle Reserve
    La Chouape Post Scriptum La Vie Est Belle

    HOPZ Cigar - Was very tempted to get one of these with my yearly cigar shipment, absolutely awesome.
    Wild Turkey Bourbon Sauce

    Looking forward to La Chouape, Covered Bridge and Beyond the Pale, brand new brewers for me.

    Thanks Ian, great box and I am awesome and don't bother with Facebook.

    Ah thats too bad, twas a local pint glass. I'll send you a replacement shortly. I took a chance, was running out of packing material and went cheap ass on the glass thinking it would survive...

    No worries, like I said it wasn't full of beer so it only stung a bit. Don't worry about a replacement, you have sent some great beer and a cigar that will keep me pleasantly occupied.

    Awesome box, you're going to love that KDS. One of my favourite stouts.

    I have returned from the land of beer (Portland) and am just deciding on bottle selection for my target now. Also working on obtaining one more local beer for the box as quality locals are sort of what this is all about. Should be able to ship before the weekend if all goes according to plan.

    Looks like a delivery was attempted this morning. Sounds like they left a pick-up card though.

    Thank you CurtisD !!!!! Got a text from my wife this afternoon that FedEx dropped off this giant box. At the time I was on the road and I knew very well what this must be. The next 1 hour drive was the longest 1 hour drive of my life. Boy oh Boy, this is one awesome box, all new breweries to me and I can't wait to start trying some of these !

    Attempted delivery. Unfortunately, Fedex doesn't have an office in Vancouver which means I have to drive deep into Burnaby to get it. Hope I can do it tomorrow, otherwise Thursday it will have to be.

    Either way I have to go out there for school so it's not really an inconvenience, didn't make it sound like one. Just not quite as awesome as walking across the street to a CP office and unpacking it right now :slight_smile:

    Thanks a ton! Only beer I've tried is Moralite and that is always welcome in my house. I'm headed to Quebec and some of these were definitely on my list to look for, glad to already have them waiting at home!

    Glad this made it to you safely! I was pretty confident most of these don't make their way west of New Brunswick very often, but I was worried you may have had the Propeller Revolution or Garrison IIPA before as these have appeared at the LCBO in the past. Enjoy!

    I am glad it all got there and in good order. It was a pleasure (and a bit of a challange) finding fun things you haven't had already. You need to stop shopping in QC to make it easier for us during the CANBIFs :grinning:.

    Take it from me, someone who also has a bum shoulder (tear in rotator cuff), you need to continue to exercise it. I recommend one-armed pint lifts :wink:!
