69.

 

I know there isn't much activity in here anymore, but this was still obviously the best place to post this. A little over a year ago, I had sent @treznor a small box containing a few bottles of Plan Bee Pickle to share with his friends, along with some other random stuff. Return fire arrived today -- first I was a little considered because after being "out for delivery", it got rescheduled, and when it arrived the box had some ominous-looking "Inspected by Homeland Security" stickers on it...that was apparently when the box was incoming to Mike.

Anyway, first the little guys...



Burial The Virtue of Patience - that's a BBA Barleywine! #drool
Wakefield RIS Aged in Peerless Whiskey Barrels
Olde Hickory Photon Sphere - BBA Imperial Stout w/honey, cinammon, vanilla, cocoa, & habanero peppers -- I wonder how long it took to vote on THAT combo
Side Project Balaton - just the #1 ranked Flanders on BA
Hi-Wire Brewing 10W-40 Imperial Stout - just boring old Coffee, Chocolate, & Vanilla- which is pretty much my favorite anyway. And obviously a cool name.

then the big guys....



NoDa Monstro (2018) - a BBA RIS
Bond Brothers Flavor Patterns
Burial Velvet Cocoon (complete with the aforementioned cocoon)
Zebulon Experimental Forest #1 Saison / Farmhouse Ale
Sierra Nevada Alpha Hop Society (2018) BA Maple Syrup Pecan Stout
Olde Hickory Appalachian Walker (2018) Brandy BA Barleywine
Westbrook Maple Bourbon BA 7th Anniversary Imperial Stout

So a whole bunch of new ticks, mostly one-offs from the brewery, and in a variety of delcious styles aged a variety of delicious barrels. I also received a shirt that Mike said he sent because it "screamed my name" ...



And the group shot, as always...



Thanks a ton Mike @treznor !!

 

@Mikexw Photon Sphere is basically the second year of OHB Spectrum 4 (they used the same numbers two years in a row for unrelated beers, kinda dumb) and Spectrum is their variants of Event Horizon. Event Horizon always has honey in it to dry the beer out, so that's why Photon Sphere has honey. I think this might be a yearly beer now, not sure (this was the first time it was released as Photon Sphere). Hopefully so as its not bad if you're into spicy beer.

Oh, and the Homeland Security tape is because I use shipper boxes to travel with as well and any time I do, TSA just looooooooves opening my boxes and checking them out

Hope you enjoy Mike!

I’m getting excited. The hard way.

 

In like Flynn. For 12, of course.

Anyone want some beer?

 

We're really slacking off here in the quest for 2000 pages...

I heard he can’t even figure out how to post here, to ask for beer.
