The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

Sorry for the delayed ****, had to pack up a couple boxes for sucking at NFL Pick 'Em and NFL 33 BIFs.

I won @UTvols05 "Wicked Weed / Wicked Campaign" LIF and he decided to send me a freaking bomb. Box arrived today, I popped open a beer and dove right in. Box popping beer courtesy of @Bristopher89, glassware thanks to @Devman171 - thanks guys!


First the cans...

Westbrook Gose (x2) - Had once before, I'll have a hard time keeping these out of the hands of the gf.
Orpheus Atalanta (x2) - Want. First from these guys, can't wait!
CC White Oak Jai Alai - Want, never had!
CC Maduro - Love this brown!
Creature Comforts Tropicalia - BIG Want!

Next the small bottles...

Prairie BOMB! - Permawant.
BCBS - Ditto.
Du Claw Sweet Baby Jesus! - Got one from @Dave_Treat can't wait to try them!
Prairie Christmas Bomb! - New tick, want, etc...

Big bottles...

Red Hare Sour Sticky Stout - New brewery, solid style.
Three Taverns Feest Noel - Spiced Holiday Quad, 4.26 rAVG... Another new brewery and a beer I'm looking forward to trying.
Headliners -
Wicked Weed Montmaretto & Bomladile - Canvas series sours. Just had my first WW this weekend (Succession - thanks @Devman171 ) and can't wait to try these two!

Oh, and there was swag too...


Unreal box, especially for a LIF. Thanks so much!

 

If a pint of ice cream is training then I'm training for the next push-up competition.

 

2 more boxes have been packed up and are headed to the same state. Shipment has been put on hold for reasons and things, but let's just say I hope they arrive before you two run out of beer.

My wife sat watching dancing with the stars while the pile of boxes accumulated (there's an additional to a non BA).

She was not relieved when I pointed out that two of them technically weren't shipping tomorrow.

 

#VCS - beautiful evening! Cheers!

 

One more #VBS Courtesy of my Se7en sender @kgncfl

Now let me finish posting this pRon and for those of you that want to see the B-Day boxes, check out the Birthday thread.

 

I didn't realize @kgncfl sent to you this round -- I think that's only two boxes to go and I've finally got everyone figured out. Now if Keith can only explain his hints...

 

Sometimes you're able to get a hold of a bottle that you know someone is ISO. This, my fellow locals, is when a stealth ninja attack is in order. One of you guys is getting a small box with a whale-ish bottle later this week. If I were to guess, I'd say it'll arrive on Friday...Keep your eyes peeled

 

Oh lions fans how I feel for you. Oh, nope, that's right I don't.

 

My name has been mentioned in this thread. Does that mean i'm part of the cool kids club? Then again I don't know if my wallet, porch, cellar, or body are ready to be part of this club...

 

1) You are ready 2) Fck your wallet, cellar, and body. That is all.

 

Dude jumps in and you give him a Fck, really Redd? FUK his wallet!

Welcome @Bristopher89, just send me all the Jester King fruited sours and you'll fit in well! Strike that, I'm reducing my cellar!

 

Well I had no idea who my sender was and I think I like it better that way. It's nice getting the surprise of two 12 shippers sitting in my mommy's house. Not sure if @kgncfl planned for these boxes to land the day before my B-Day but good job, except for the fact that I had sixty-something beers sitting on the dining room table this weekend! Ok, enough of the BS, on to the show.


Not listing beers cause that's just not how I do. But I will say these are all new which is great for a ticker and they all sound amazing! Really liking this Neapolitan now.


3 perma wants here with the BA Bkackout, Mayan Mocha, and BBPT5! And 3 new ones. Outstanding box so far.


Definetly not turning down any KBS and I've been dying to try that Oro Negro. The Bourbon barrel and Sherry barrel are also new, I've had the regular and Rum. Killing it Keith


I've been hearing about this No Rules everywhere and now I have 2 (thx to Keith and Nate) Can't wait to try it. Love me some peanut butter beers! Gonna add that Lager Ness Monster to the horizontal I'm building.


I've seen a bunch of Cascade down here (none less than $30) but I have never seen this one and damn does it sound good! This is my second DeGarde and I'm stoked to try it.

Can't thank you enough Keith for these awesome boxes filled with wants, perma wants, and new ticks.
Cheers

Definetly not catching up tonight. I'll catch up tomorrow after I drive 2 1/2 hours to stand in line for 2 hours to then drive back 2 1/2 hours to get my bottle of BA Snowed in. LIF coming soon

 

Thought I'd share, this is the first time this Tower Station IPA has been canned, and it's one of the best beers we have in AZ. So happy that I will be able to send this out in the future to all my locals friends

 

I recently got that Cascade too, also looking forward to it. Interestingly, it's not "Raspberries and Apricots" it's Raspberries and Apricot Noyaux" Apricot Noyaux is the meat from the pit, which they toasted before adding. I'm super intrigued.

 

My target was in Florida. I listed hurricanes that have struck Florida directly.

 

Gotcha -- your clues always make so much sense once I understand them (I still remember enjoying them in the round I ran)... and if had done my homework I probably could have figured this one out.

 

Entries for my Round 7 LIF close tonight in case anyone wants to enter... http://www.beeradvocate.com/communi...and-hauls-thread.180634/page-997#post-4110686

 

I hate posting 3 times in a row, but had to include this -- the cafeteria cash register at work today when I walked up to it -- @Dave_Treat must have just bought breakfast

 

Perfect. I needed that laugh, thanks.
