    I had Taco Kisses at least 6 separate occasions (latest at the end of November) and not once found it to be infected. Also, with it being a wheat wine I don't know how much body you really expect it to have. Bruery White Chocolate is also a BA wheat wine that is highly regarded and has about the same viscosity.

    Because they weren't stouts and styles that people don't trade their cellars over?

    Pretty Easy to open. Usually pry off with a solid bottle opener without needing to cut it, one that you can dig a little into, but I heard that from someone. I don't open beers either.

    The wax removal scale should be on a scale of 1 - Terrapin bottle.

    I usually use a waiter's bar tool, the kind that has a corkscrew and small knife on one end for wine. I make an X in the wax on the top of the cap and a slit down a little of the neck. Then a quarter of the wax is easy to remove and it exposes the lip of the cap. Works like a charm. No stabbing or digging required.

    Went to the Voodoo event today and good lord! Might have been 600 people down there. Walked to the street were the food trucks where and immediately turned around and went to Brew Gents. We really wanted to try that Mac and Gold too. :slight_frown:

    Nards I totally forgot about that, but I would've probably done the exact same thing.

    Haha I've never seen someone be so neurotic as to stalk people's forum posts. What a tool.

    I'm sorry but when you participate in a BIF you owe it to the other participants to participate. You owe it to the people that sent you beer to minimally acknowledge receipt of the beer if not pictures. If you don't do that the phone the tool in question isn't someone trying to verify who has and hasn't sent boxes and which ones have or haven't been received.

    I began posting in words not in pictures in the mail thread what packages I was receiving with the shipping name and was getting shit for not posting pictures with everyone's ba name, so I said screw it. I don't have the time to be cross referencing shipping names with ba names, then take a pic of every fucking box and tie it back to that person and sign up for a picture storing site to post everything.

    First off I didn't want to post here on this thread because it doesn't belong here. For that I guess I am a "tool". The only reason I did is you ignored repeated requests in the mail thread from the BIF moderator, myself , and others who sent you a box who all just wanted to know whether or not you even received the boxes. Just that little bit of common courtesy. Can I ask for the favor of a reply here? Can you at least let me know you received it? And my apologies to all here for posting in the wrong forum.
