Big fan of rez gets smashed. Its a single malt single hop double IPA using 2 row and simcoe hops. Dry hopped a bunch. 10% hidden superbly. http://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/25963/185147/ Also, not sure if you had a wife/significant other/etc, but those earrings were made by my wife. She makes them out of the buttons from beerfest giveaways. They are always a big hit with the ladies and we have traded them for some cool swag in the past. She traded a couple sets to a bells employee for a pretty nice bells backpack at the funvitational. I was a little bummed to see you got the cif and some of the beers in my box were duplicates of those. Good news is both the expedition stout and wulver age very well. Glad you enjoyed!
Having a slight sinus infection and beer don't mix...but I can't help myself. Nice chocolate and malty finish.
Props to @Avelasquez80 for a well-packed, well-researched box! I haven't had a single one of these, and I am super excited about every one of them. Beers Four Corners La Lechuza - S'more Stout - Sounds amazingly delicious. Beers like this that I can share with my wife are what allows me to keep trading beer. Pipeworks Close Encounter - Hopped Up Stout - I love hops and I love stouts. Everything else I have had from Pipeworks has been great. Ranger Creek Small Batch No. 11 - Apricot Sour - I love sours, and I love apricot sours even more. Three Floyds Gumballhead - Pale Wheat - I love wheat ales and everything I have had from Three Floyds has been great. Rahr & Sons BBA Winter Warmer - BA Winter Warmer - I haven't even heard of the winter warmer as a beer style, but this looks super interesting. I can't wait to try it. Freetail Brewing La Muerta 2015 - Imperial Stout - This is a huge want of mine and I hadn't been able to track it down. Suuuper excited. Jester King Black Metal - Imperial Farmhouse Stout - I have had very limited chances to try Jester King beers. From the description I am very excited to try this and I am not sure exactly what to expect. Lone Pint Yellow Rose - IPA - SMaSH IPA with Mosaic. I love Mosaic. Enough said! Lone Pint Pioneer Po-Cha-Na-Quar-Hip - Braggot Ale - Braggot is another beer style that I am not familiar with. It is described as a mead-ale hybrid. I have enjoyed the few meads that I have tried. This looks great. Community Beer Company Oaked Mosaic IPA - Oaked IPA - I have enjoyed a few oaked ales that I believe might be similar to this one. Ranger Creek Purple Rhine - Berliner Weisse - A berliner weisse with prickly pear. This sounds right up my wheelhouse. Swag Three Floyds Gumballhead sticker - I love stickers. Ranger Creek Mason Jar - Sometimes, beer is best out of a mason jar. Freetail Tulip - I know what I am going to drink that La Muerta out of. Rahr & Sons 2015 Winter Warmer Glass - I can only assume that this awesome glass is the appropriate glassware for a winter warmer style beer. I absolutely love this glass and I have nothing quite like it. Purple Rhine Frisbee - We close on our first this Friday. I plan to play catch with my son to show him all the perks of having a yard that is ours.
I'm glad you liked em man. I hope you enjoy each and every one of them and if you ever want anything from TX that I can get my hands on, I'd be happy to set up a trade with ya! Enjoy man!! And it gives me great pleasure knowing that the beer will be enjoyed!!
And unfortunately I couldn't get my hands on a 2015 winter warmer but if I do, I know where to send it!
Box shows that it is on the UPS truck for delivery today. My target has hasn't called me out. Don't want the beer to freeze.
I'd been thinking @JPond4 is my sender, but the most recent comment about being concerned the beer will freeze threw me. If it's me then don't worry, it'll be in the 40's or above all day.
I stalk the whereabouts of my box constantly, praying every time that I don't see that red "shipping exception" pop up when I put that tracking # in. I can't imagine how it's going to be when I send my kids to college. @JPond4 your shipment left some random illinois location yesterday. Slowly but surely.
