    I always get my box delivered to work. I can't stand having to wait to get the package, as they often make it a next day pickup. My coworkers are always pissed off when I won't open the box in front of them. Why would I open the box so you can see what I got? You wouldn't appreciate it anyway!

    Based on my trip out East this summer Sammy it's delicious, Fog City was the roast we got. A great coffee shop, very reasonably priced beans and they replaced my coffee and mopped up without complaint when it was spilt directly on to my lap by my 5-year-old!

    20 beers? In one box? That's some serious packing skills!

    Agreed... they never attempt to deliver to condos... when your office has a front desk that's always staffed may as well take advantage. Anytime a heavy box arrives, our staff already know it's for me and what the contents is. I've been told it brightens the post person's day when they hear it's beer inside.

    I finally made it home with my box, that was delivered this morning. I'm very impressed...
    Unfortunately, my out of town work trip + ski patrol re-certification kept me away from posting anything... such as hints and what not :slight_frown:
    However this is a bonus to my target, my travels allowed me to acquire some interesting brews that I'll be sending among the local brews =)

    Reviewing the previous posts... I had suspicions as to whom my sender was, and then foiled upon further reading. Thus far I can only assume/guess that my sender was @Todd_the_Beer ?? am I right?

    Anyhow, without further ado here's the awesome brews from the east...

    Wow I never noticed that that can did not have a label!! It's a second can of Cutting Bells. Glad it arrived safely.

    So someone else shipped to Hal! :slight_smile:

    I have all the beer ready to pack up and send to my target. Some family obligations may make it impossible to send out today or tomorrow though. I apologize in advance to my Maritme target.

    If my target likes this post, I will wait until Monday to ship and include this weekend’s release from Toronto’s favorite brewery. It is a barrel aged beer that hasn’t been released since 2015. An inside source tells me that it is tasting great!

    Cheers.
