    Exactly. Which is why I won't go in drinking this with my mind already made up. We'll just have to see later tonight.

    Arranged a little trade with @ohyeahitsmuff and it came just in time for the long weekend.

    @Yourahoser I think you just lost the honor of strangest packing material. @ohyeahitsmuff used the box in a box method and this was tucked in their to fill the extra space. Beer and a meal!

    Thanks again! Can't wait to crack a few of these open tonight.

    I'm impressed. However, perhaps this means I need to up my game.

    Well my surprise bottle from @Coldstorage in the 12 DOX turned out to be this what a way to start the evening.

    1500 calories is equal to about 15 miles on a bicycle depending on the terrain so no problem I average about 300 miles a week.

    [​IMG]Got this from @Misterphinister in one of my first ever trades. Very different brew. Scotch ale with cherries aged in brandy barrels. I don't really know what brandy tastes like but this brew is pretty tasty. Cheers everyone and hope you had a great new year.

    Just got back to Austin and have been unpacking and organizing all the beer. I didn't really get anything super limited or mind blowingly rare, but I did bring back a shitload of beer to drink with friends in the New Year. Here's a look at the ridiculous amount of alcohol I brought back:
