    Box safely received here! Full of goodies from Bellwoods, Amsterdam, and Indie Ale House. I will post photos of the haul once I am home and the kiddies are in bed. Thanks for the very generous box, Coronaeus!!

    A box has been sitting at home for a couple days waiting for me to open. Getting anxious but have been away because of work.

    To my target your box is still sitting in BC waiting to be processed. Hopefully it starts moving soon! Its heading all the way across the country to a city north of the Saint Lawrence River

    I received my box at work today. Pleasantly surprised to see that it was sent all the way from Vancouver! I'll open it after work, when the cat has had a chance to inspect it (as she always does).

    The box I sent is out for delivery two days early. Quelqu'un should have something waiting for them after work!

    This is me!
    I came home Monday night in the dark and missed the FedEx Note that for some reason was stuck at the very top of the door... I actually found the box first that was for some reason delivered to my back door which is behind a locked gate...

    Anyway that said, it wasn't until yesterday morning (no worries didn't rain and nights have been cool) I caught sight of the smoldering crater where my new back deck used to be. :stuck_out_tongue:

    Apart from 1 beer these are all new, and obviously mostly new breweries to me as well!
    Also good packing! Wow there was alot of beer crammed in that shipper!

    Thanks so much!
    I'm just at work and will take/ post pictures and list tonight.
    The GF is off tonight too so I'm sure will get into a few...

    I am the disconnected sender.
    Glad everything arrived safely!
    You are a truly experience "drinker", I'm glad I was able to find a few interesting beer you haven't tasted yet!

    Enjoy
