    I second OG pairings, that would make for some crazy awesome boxes!

    I'm definitely available to help out, I'll probably join in but don't commit me yet.

    Nice! Rain would suck, but looks like there won't be much if any. Shoot me a BM if you want to meet up for a beer or two... probably early on when I'm most coherent.

    No luck, buddy. Given the reaction of my beer store hookup when I asked if he had any of this (looked at me like I had three heads), I’d guess this may be a difficult acquisition.

    If @FlintB wasnt already at the top of my “hit list”, he is now. Here is my LiF box he refused to let me forward on. So much great beer! Thanks for the box of awesome ticks!

    I did forward your LIF winnings. That was a very small "thank you for being so generous with your LIF winnings" box.

    The beer store I frequent gets a lotta stuff, including Central States, and the beer buyer told me he has tried to get the beer you seek, but he has been stonewalled.

    PS: he has Omnipollo stuff on his shelf, but can't secure that beer.

    I checked both stores, and unfortunately neither had come in. Very disappointed about that. Really wish I could help.

    So, I have a little story to tell you.

    Last week, on Sunday, I get a couple text messages. Supposedly someone from Chicago needs my address because they want to use me as a character reference, and the other just wants to send me some crowlers. I know these clowns, so I go ahead and send them my address. I figure, what's the harm? I like them, I'd do anything I could for them, Happy to help (or accept crowlers!).

    Then This happens today.

    The bomb:



    I don't recognize the sender. ...The fuck?

    Then I open the lids that just endlessly fold over themselves:



    Holy shit. My god. I joke...a lot, but something like this reminds me of just how humble I feel, and how extraordinarily greatful I am to belong to such a wonderful group of people. Thank you very much.

    Here's what was hiding inside!



    I am SUPER excited to try these BA stouts. I put a Boss Tweed in the fridge (as I have not had one before), and am polishing it off right now! It's quite good! I've had M-43 before, I didn't want to break into everything all at once tonight :wink:.

    I think the sender is @FlintB ? Thank you so very much!
