    And it's 64oz of fresh Julius! (one of my top 3 favorite IPAs) :slight_frown:



    I suppose I'm lucky that this is the first time as recipient or receiver?

    What was your first?

    My first was a big hairy woman who drove a truck and swore like a sailor.

    A bottle of hopslam that was an extra. The box got intercepted before it got to me. The trader re-ship everything and add more extras for the delay. Best box I ever got.

    I shipped a societe growler and the cap pop came off. The growler was stainless steel kind so it didn't break. Can't believe it was still delivered dispute the box being completely wet.

    Only thing that was ever broken was a extra bomber I shipped. It was in a box with prop so I almost had a heart attack when the guy texted me saying I haven't opened it yet but something is broken.

    Alesmith package was delivered to me by the mail man himself, a clear, plastic bag was tied in a knot with liquid inside. Unflinching, he smiled and said nothing. It had two unbroken bottles(AS Numbskull BA + Wee Heavy) and one broken(AS Old Numbskull), my lucky day! In front of all my customers, I wiped little bits of glass off these pretty bottles and all the old-timers ooed and ahhh'd and asked what in tarnation. When I spoke to my dude, he replaced it instantly and I sent him something again because beer. #floridaman

    I sent a Surly West Coast IPA as an extra to a West coast trader and it exploded.
