    So when I picked this package up at the post office I was concerned that I was becoming frail and weak, but it turns out that the box was packed with what appeared, at a casual glance, to be at least 50 beers. Many thanks to my sender from Alberta. I'm familiar with a few of the breweries included in this bunch and am really excited to try them all. Pretty sure you nailed it.



    Jopen- Doubting Thomas Imperial Quadrupel
    Parallel 49- Lost Souls Chocolate Pumpkin Porter
    Driftwood- Windcatcher 10th Anniversary Sour Ale
    Dogfish Head- Sea Quench Session Sour Ale
    Avery- Hog Heaven Imperial Red IPA
    Avery- Maharaja IPA (IIPA apparently?)
    Prairie Artisan Ales- Paradise Imperial Stour With Coconut and Vanilla
    Parallel 49- Lean Back DDH IPA
    Parkside- Fuzzy Wuzzy was a beer Peach IPA
    Phantom- Space Force!! Triple IPA
    Parkside- Motel Pale Ale
    Parkside- Art Centennial Fresh Hop Pale Ale
    Four Winds- Raspberry Jam IPA with Raspberries and Milk Sugar
    Superflux- Colour & Shape IPA
    Superflux- Double Infinity (Eureka!) IIPA
    Twin Sails- Honeymoon Aerobics IIPA
    Twin Sails- Double Vaporwave Tart DIPA with Seasalt
    Boombox & Kilter- The Legend of Citra DIPA
    Torchlight- On Tour Crimson Ale

    So that's the bunch. Thanks again

    This was not a trick but a treat!

    You do not need money from the Senate to build a wall. You have to be picked by Jon Corbett (SilverHermit).

    Big thanks for all those beers (mainly) from BC! I will definitely be enjoying them!

    Got a great box from Yardsale last week but didn't have time to take a photo. All new Saskatchewan stuff that I've been slowly working through.

    Thanks so much man! Happy to see that you guys have more than Paddock Wood these days.

    Both Remsad and Bylerteck got my boxes, I hope you find a couple bangers in there. We have a lot of high quality stuff coming out all the time, but it's usually draft only or made really infrequently.

    CaptainMurphey seems to have gone a little overboard and I received a second smaller box packed with a bunch of dope cans. I would have posted about it sooner, but I've been getting crushed at work.

    here we go:

    [​IMG]
    2 Crows - Dare to Dream dark saison
    2 Crows - Thunderdome foeder aged sour
    North Brewing - Malternate Reality NEIPA
    Big Spruce - Tag! You're it IPA
    Bad Apple Brewhouse - Boc Cutter IPA
    Garrison - Jalapeno Ale
    Rare Bird - Rocket Lager
    Tidehouse - The Sex raspberry RIS. (this is the best one, I can already tell).

    Just one box to come in and I'll have more beer than any reasonable human should have.

    Major props to Electros for organizing and everyone sending boxes across the counrty and putting up with this postal strike business.

    so one of my targets has been photo shy with their box, and my other target unfortunately has fallen victim to a snails pace and rolling strikes of Canada Post... expedited shipping, hah.
    I can at least say the box has passed through Montréal and is painfully continuing eastward with a supposed estimated porch crushing of sometime tomorrow.

    whelp... much to my surprise Canada Post has managed to pull it off again with an I'm too lazy to actually deliver this box... someone must a have sent a real back breaker =)
    Alas, I fear I may have to wait another day before receiving it as generally that same lazy person also seems to take an additional 24hrs before actually delivering the box to my local post office 2 blocks over.

    I see my wonderful recipient has finally received his box - and he's monitoring the thread! I can't wait to see what he thinks, he's a pretty well-known figure in the community and I tried to put as much work as possible into it - including fulfilling one of his wants, and picking some great BA beauties from a brewery he's spoken highly of in the past... Excited to see his update!

    A massive box just crushed my porch and my back bringing it inside! Loaded with West coast goodies. I believe I have Fiery1 to thank, and a huge thank you it is! A man who clearly isn't afraid to modify a shipper to achieve maximum beer capacity! The only time where stryofoam bits flying all over the room is a good thing.

    Ive been hoping for a West coast box for a while now. All new to me except one (the yellow dog) which I thoroughly enjoyed just a few days ago.

    Heres the allstar lineup:

    [​IMG]


    Fieldhouse - Viognier Farmhouse
    Main Street - Spectral Saison
    Four Winds - Operis
    Moon Underwater- Year 6
    Superflux - Color and Shape
    Superflux - Double Infinity
    Twin Sails - One more Question
    Twin Sails - Brass Section
    Twin Sails - Juice Plus Citra
    Twin Sails - Volcano Prince
    Backcountry - 36 Chambers Tangerine
    Backcountry - Suck it Trebek
    Boombox - Juicy AF
    Boombox - Radseeker
    Boombox - Legend of Citra
    Boombox/Twin Sails - Just the Hits
    Yellow Dog - Little Dog Syndrome
    Bale Breaker - Mango IPA

    Thanks again! And if you ever want to set something up for some East Coast brews let me know and I would be happy to send some stuff your way!
