I will. God knows when that'll happen, but I will.

 

I think of him as Wilson from Home Improvement, but in a creepy kind of way.

 

Uhhh, so, about that bottle of Earl........when do you think you'll open that? Just askin. For a friend.

Midnight Sun Arctic Devil---this sounds really good and it's new to me. Love BA Barley-wines
Jack's Abby Cocoa Nut BA Framinghammer----dayumm. I was fortunate enough to try this one once with some friends in AZ (@Kylo76 ) and it was great. Can't wait to try this again and share it with my reg group(but I may just dome it)
Night Shift Harborside---I dig some Gose and this one sounds very interesting

Awesome boxes you sent @dwmetsfan13 , you really outdid yourself. I can't wait to try all these.
Cheers Locals!

 

Haha, oh yea, your oatmeal stout cravings!

You didn't see the wigsplitter @NickyPogs sent?

 

So good! Went over really well with the friends we're visiting (much more active home brewers than I am... He has four beers on tap most of the time...)

 

Looks like my target's box has been "rescheduled for delivery" for Monday. He's sure had some bad luck with receiving boxes lately. BM sent

 

Glad it all made it alive. A lot of those we're wants you added a while ago that I had or could get easily so I threw them in. Hope you enjoy!

 

Gonna go with week 5
Thanks for the chance

 

Yessir. I've got several in the fridge now

 

#VBS. Last night in St. John and decided to crack a few beers I hauled down here from a Local.





Glad I brought some beers down. It has been nice trying stuff from the local brewery and they were surprisingly much better than I expected - even had a Gose on in their taproom. I did find some craft in the grocery store, but #datpricedoe



We have one more night of vacation tomorrow back in San Juan and will be returning Sunday.

 

I'd be more concerned about the freshness on that 90 Minute than the price.... The Orval isn't too terrible though.

 

@rspauldi - I will go with week 15. This is a very cool LIF. Thanks.

Came home to this.


I proceed to look at the labels just to find out that they are all from the same person! And these are no small boxes. I tried using the chair for a size comparison. The box on the bottom is a 12er. @valrxman what on earth did i possibly do to deserve something of this magnitude. Not only is my porch gone, but my house, as well as the neighbors went down with it.

I will not be listing out the beers for obvious reasons. here we go. Lets start off with the cans.

WHAT! All but the jai alai's, tocobaga, maduro and invasion are new ticks. The rest include wants, and should be wants. Some of these in which ive never heard of that sound delicious. The girlfriend already called dibs on the ciders so she thanks you for that! Oh and for the record, thats 35 cans.. 420 ounces.

Next up. Small bottles..

New Funky Buddha stuff All wants. The others will all be new brewery ticks in which im seriously looking forward too. 14 more beers.. 168 more ounces.

Bigger stuff..

Is this real? 2 last snows!!! and a CCB Horizontal. Funny how i just asked Steve if he could get any good gourd as its my friends favorite beer. Little did i know... 242 more ounces

Finally.. the ones that just couldnt fit in any of the pictures above lol

Growlers are Mexican Standoff and Cafe Ole! The rest, new brewery ticks. about another 140 ounces.

Im speechless. Complete loss for words. The generosity here is just above and beyond and i cant say thank you enough. I need to go out and purchase another shelf for beer just from these alone! I tell you what these are going to make excellent tailgating beers for the upcoming pats games. And hopefully i can polish some of the biggers ones off at a friends wedding in a couple weeks.

There has to be something in the water down there in FL. That or they simply were never taught how to add. I understand the 177oz was the minimum. but 970oz!?!?!?! My mind has been completely blown.

Thanks again Steve, a million times over. I will be returning fire (piece by piece) starting soon!

 

Florida wins. BA over.

 

Oh, you know I'm going Week 6. Gonna be a bloodbath. Thanks for the chance!
