    So we've been busy this weekend, and while I've gotten some drinking in I've been very inactive here and on untappd (I tried catching up this morning)... but here's a last night and tonight VBS -- last night my wife and I went over to my neighbor's to play cards (and drink) -- he is very willing to try stuff, has fairly similar taste to me, and is good to share with. So first, I'm not normally a big coconut fan... but I had gotten this from @MCMASTERSANCHEZ via the horizontalhood -- my buddy likes coconut, so I figured worst case I'd give him most of it...

    ... I absolutely loved it -- the coconut was there if you looked for it, but was VERY subtle. And the beer in general was amazing. I'm really looking forward to the others now, although will probably have to save the Hunter Cherry for my neighbor. Then we shared something that I've had before and loved (I believe @Louis121 sent it to me) -- and now has local distribution!!! -- he liked this one too, but not as much as I did.

    and between yesterday and today, I packed 93 (!!??!!!) pounds that will be shipped out tomorrow to people in this thread. A couple of boxes are reasonable, but I tend to use beer as packing material ("hey, there's space here, I can probably squeeze in a bubble wrapped bomber") and may have gone a teeny bit overboard on the largest box. And I worked up a thirst, so now I'm enjoying

    It's hard to see, but this is in #pgw -- thanks @dwmetsfan13. Now that I have this glass, I can start working on the other five Trillium bottles I've got (although unfortunately none of them are hoppy)!

    I can't imagine anyone being seriously upset about ZD that's less than a month old...

    This guy! He talks all innocent.

    Between him, @Mipper and @JNForsyth, I left with more than I brought.

    Nick dropped 8 beers on me. 8! He's a freaking animal. Then Eric and Jeremy go want hunting.

    I just try to share my local brews and they go smashing up my trunk!

    Bunch a savages in this thread!

    Thanks guys! It is always nice to see you. :slight_smile:
