My porch took a hit today from @beatjunkee. A nice box including some Wants (Cafe Royale, heavy mettle, bourbon gbs), some should have been wants, some beers I'm happy to be able to revisit, and some new brewery ticks. He also included some some swag (trillium taster) as well as an awesome Bud Light coozie and a couple other tasty treats. Looking forward to the group share of the mystery beers. Oh, and one of these didn't last very long....
My very unsuspecting target will get crushed this Thursday/Friday, wanted to get the boxes in the mail earlier but was too busy with work, swag arriving separately.
glad it all made it intact, @rspauldi hopefully you enjoy them! i was seeing you check-in a bunch of stuff over the holidays that i was planning on putting in -- so had to audible a bit hahaha... the old bay was a shoutout to the maryland crab cuisine which is big out here... (and now i guess it accompanies the quinoa noisemaker nicely) -- and the bud koozie was just used as padding thrown in there (i didn't realize to think of it as anything), but consider it a swtkyw bonus heh cheers, dude
I was thumped by @WesHowl after I mentioned wanting some NC hops. This box looks tasty, full of new ticks and goodness. Need to make more room in the fridge now! Thanks man. Cheers!
Hear Ye, Hear Ye. @droopy1202 dropped the coolest piece of swag on me. I asked for one of these because I don't have one and always wanted one and he delivers with a perfect Newbies logo on the top! Way to go man, this is awesome!!
Are you onto me yet? Target Hint 01: I have never shipped to you before. Target Hint 02: The population of your state grew just over 3x the amount of WI from 2010-2016. Target Hint 03: Your state has been putting out some great things as of late, and I have had at least one in the past month! Target Hint 04: Track #3 Target Hint 05: Do you enjoy fishing? Target Hint 06: Well shit, my plans have been spoiled. Target Hint 07: Unless I missed it, your BIF box hasn't destroyed a porch yet. Target Hint 08: Your package is now on its way via UPS. Should land Thursday (distance hint). Target Hint 09: Your boxes were last scanned in MD, still on track for tomorrow Content Hint 01: I just picked up a ridiculous amount of WI brews, most of which are barrel aged. Whether you want them or not, you're getting them. Content Hint 02: In The Now Content Hint 03: At least one of the beers I sent my SWTFYW target is in your box. Content Hint 04: Some of your wants are distributed all around me, but not in WI. I got you! Content Hint 05: Sorry to make you wait, but like last round, I will be pushing the shipping deadline. Because of this beer. Content Hint 06: Clearly I need to stay out of my bottle shops. Picked up another of your preferred style, and its local, but the main ingredient is from MI. Content Hint 07: Don't spoil the plot twist! Content Hint 08: Sorry I don't have the stomping power of others to hit 60lbs. You'll have to make due with the 52lbs coming to fuck up your porch.
Hint #1 not shipping @jonbonfondle Hint #2 not shipping @Yourahoser Hint #3 not shipping an OG Newbie Hint #4 not shipping @Homebrew Hint #5 my target has more snake pit trades Hint #6 shipping east Hint #7 shipping a new Newbie Hint #8 shipping Steve (if that helps)
Target... My box should be arriving Friday and as of yesterday @3pm it traveled East through 2 states.
Sorry @droopy1202 apparently FedEx is not cognizant of Newbie BIF deadlines and has now pushed the estimated delivery date back to Saturday. Last check-in was in Oregon for one box, so at least it's getting closer.
@Steban hit me up with an awesome BIF box the other day! Left to right: Wicked weed BA french toast (new tick) Wicked weed french toast (new tick) Side project saison du ble (new tick and I believe my first side project beer ever) Burial maple imperial stout (new tick) Toppling Goliath x hops gold (new tick) Toppling Goliath sosus (had this recently and it was solid for an IPA) Perennial sump (had this a couple weeks ago and it is a permawant) Funky Buddha butta' cup (this beer is good) Burial skillet donut (this beer is good) Pulpit rock J Pop (totally new brewery to me) Funky Buddha last buffalo in the park (major want) Wrapped bottle (permawant) and a sweet little Funky Buddha glass Thanks @Steban!
No worries @Jackd33 . I have beer to get me by and I think the deadline is Saturday anyways. Thanks for the heads up too. Will keep an eye out on Saturday.
