    A huge box landed on my porch yesterday courtesy of @Lazhal and it was seriously huge.

    1 Central Waters - Cassian Sunset I've been curious about this brewery and definitely looking forward to trying this out.
    2 Short's Brewing - Hopstache Another brewery I've been wanting to sample.
    2 3 Floyds - Zombie Dust An old favorite from my days in Northern Illinois. Haven't had this in 4 years and I'm really excited for these.
    2 Dark Horse - Smells Like a Safety Meeting A big want from a brewery I haven't had the chance to have much from.
    2 Short's Brewing/Half-Acre - Freedom of '78 Really looking forward to this one. I've had a few Half-Acre beers always loved their stuff. I'm sure this won't disappoint.
    1 Bell's Brewery - 30th Anniversary Ale Bell's beers were really some of the first craft beers that got me into this obsession back in my Midwest days. Really excited to get this one.

    A big thanks, once again, to @Lazhal. Way too generous.

    Got back from vacation yesterday and picked up a box that had been waiting for me at the UPS store. This ones from @gopens44. It is the box for the most points by any player starting in the conference finals.
