    Got a fantastic box from Ferris earlier today. Thanks a ton! Almost every beer is new to me and I didn't even know that Boombox existed. Probably the most excited to try those. Definitely wasn't expecting a couple of squealers. Super cool. Can't wait to dig into everything. Crazy good pack job, jamming so many cans in there. Props to Ferris for putting together a really awesome CANBIF box!

    Left to Right:

    Boombox Josie's Vacation Barrel Aged Sour

    Persephone West Coast Sour Ale
    Parallel 49 From East Van With Love

    Much as I tried, the 12 bottle shipper was crammed with a few oversized bottles. Normally I can squeeze 4 cans in as well but none fit, unless I wanted to squeeze them until they opened to jam them in. Hope my target is worthy to lift Thor's Hammer!

    Update on my box out....
    It landed in the second largest city in Canada this morning at 5:18am. This box still has some traveling to do but it is still listing expected delivery for some time today. Even if they deliver late you should have chilled beers in the fridge for the weekend!

    In 1827 you're whoooole city cost $4116. Plus if you walked the 200 odd meters to the water you could see my relatives orchard across the lake, passing a bajillion wineries, two great distilleries, and a government grow op. Just be back by friday to sign for a 16 KG box with 10.5 or so liters of things in it.

    Major props to Phil for helping us share beer.

    34 lbs and over 8 litres of (mostly) Ontari-ari-ari-o goodness on its way to a town from which the recipient of the 2016 Juno award for Breakthrough Group of the Year takes its name!

    I should have replied yesterday when I read you post. What were the chances of reading it and me having the Canada Post tag on my door?

    Well, it was indeed a good beer day.

    A small package but packed so tight that I was able to start building this beer wall. I believe that it is an amazing start to protect me from Donald.

    A lot of goodies from Yellow Dog, Superflux (special thanks for those ones!), Strange Fellows, Twin Sails and Steel & Oak, all British Columbia breweries.

    All of this thanks to Jonathan Evans from Surrey. You cannot see me but I actually am bowing down in appreciation as I am typing this. I am looking forward to opening and savouring them. Thanks again..

    Leave it to the BIF for people to figute out how to put more beer into boxes than physics and logic should allow.

    @GRM I had a Happyness from the same 4-pack last night, and it was super. Recommend popping one right now! Unless you're sleeping I guess :wink:

    Pretty sure today is the day.
    The box has finally arrived in your city as of 6:12am. Hopefully it's not too much trouble for Canada Post to get the short leg of it journey completed by days end.

    My research indicates that you are in the food industry so hopefully my choices please your palate!

    OK.... so I have this nice little slide show of my haul.

    However, I just keep getting the broken picture icon when I try to post it.
    I'll share the link for now, but if someone can guide me in the right direction that would be great.





    Thanks again to @westcostbeergeek
