SAVAGES (v2) Hints/Hauls

I hope your insurance covers hernias. I know a good lawyer if not. I can only imagine.

 

Sweet! Looking forward to it. Cheers

 

Shit dude. Next time I am in OBX, NC I am gonna pick you up some shark tees in size wimp medium so you can drive the ladies crazy. Kid in Chicago stands by the tees that they are a babe magnet. I am too old to know what that means.

But seriously, I will not be back until late spring but any reminder would be appreciated.

 

Great boxes going out guys!

@Vidblain @Jimmy_Kneecaps @CanConPhilly @y2kawakami

& I prolly missed one or two from @FakePhilly & @ayalaa28 too.

Savages.

 

Same here.

 

I might also be headed that way in the spring, though I go to the New Bern area, where my friend there lives. I just hope the weather is better than when I was there spring last year.

50 and rainy, hell it was colder there than where I live in Minnesota. The one day it didn't rain it was 50 and 40 mph winds. You really can't enjoy the beach in that crap.

 

Got my eye on you too!

 

I am not sure how many posts it will take to fit the contents of the next box so bear with me. There was a 42 pound beast sitting on the porch from @Snrubnivek , now I knew the weight of the box so I expected it but the contents I was not prepared for. Kevin went above and beyond to absolutely crush me with amazing beers I have wanted and new breweries I have never heard of so let's begin.

Hey @FrankenMiller ....
I’m calling you out too

 

I was being polite. My wife is still traumatized.
Weather is friggin bi-polar up here.

 

Last but not least the swag and food items

Two awesome Rare Barrel glasses







Charcuterie Style Mustard



Three packs of jerky ( I know there are only 2 pics I ate one pack while taking the pics!!)

The money shot



Shit Kevin very impressive job, you nailed every style I love so many amazing beers I have no idea where to start, well that is not true the blind beer which is coming up!!! Thanks again I really appreciate the effort you put into putting this together.

 

Maybe a commando pic would make things right. What woman could resist a man commando.

Hot as shit here. Raked up three wheel barrows of thatch. Had the yard aerated and seeded. Watered for 12 straight days. Nothing. Well bank account is less.

 

Sorry to take up a whole page but blind beer up!!



Looks NEIPA thick head great retention tons of sticky lacing
Nose is candied orange citrus peel and overly ripe fruit.
Taste Follows the nose closely candied orange, little more citrus peel and grapefruit in the taste than the nose.

Feel is creamy pretty soft not much burn so the abv is probably 6 - 7%

I am going to say a NEIPA somewhere around 7% and based on the box probably a brewery I have never had!!

The revel once I finish.

 

Am I the only one who can’t see pics and avatars on here tonight?
