My xmas2k19 box from @Griff57 was simply superb: Freshies from Other Half and Equilibrium, new brewery ticks from K2 and Southbound, 2 high abv stouts from OH and EvilTwin, a cool-looking Canadian sour, OH glass and a wrapped gift. Half way through the hops line up and loving it, many thanks Chris!
Catching up on recent hauls outside of the current BIF round, with overdue thanks to @azuelke who in early November casually showed up an my doorstep with a stellar share line up including Assassin, whole bunch of other whalez and WI cheese curds, and then left these WI-IL goodies behind: Many thanks and apologies for a posting delay Adam! Next up is a Hudson Valley #gpiufmb from @corm44 with a neat 4x4 of some HVB goodness and an Equilibrium kicker: No one slams me more frequently than @HeartofMiami, who is a quality rapid fire ninja guy: Stellar FL selection of Civil Society, Invasive Species, JWB, Funky Buddha, seasonal Odd Breed and a total treat that is 3 Sons' BCBS. Many thanks Jared, your boxes continue to blow my mind!
waited for the 2nd box first landed well within the time parameters and second knocked it out of the park thanks again @Jackd33 list of it all minus what was consumed already lol https://untappd.com/user/brutalfarce/lists/690006
Finally getting my box(es) posted up from @Satch44. First of all thank you to Satch for this amazing lineup of beers. I'm super excited for the Christmas beer and I have my suspicions but these cans are incredible as well. I have already had a half a dozen of them or so and all have been delicious. So here we go! First box came about 10 days ago or so. This box had my Christmas bottle, a perennial sour, some Riverlands Cans (New brewery Tick), Pipeworks, Maplewood, Hop Butcher, Narrow Gauge, Phase III, and Lil' Beaver. Great variety of styles and as I stated above some damn tasty beers! Second box had my Christmas Schwag in the form of a cool Riverlands hat. I dig it as I work in Dam Safety and it reminds me of logos typically found in this line of work. Along with the hat were 3 more cans (Hop Butcher and Pipeworks). Thanks for the killer boxes @Satch44! Great stuff all around and greatly appreciate the generosity.
@azuelke hit me with a nice Xmas eve box after coyly asking if I was going to be around today. I’m not sure what I did to deserve this, I guess I made Adam’s nice list this year. All new ticks except for two, which are new vintages to me (MD and CW maple), and a #chugs for good measure (which I’ll try to get in tomorrow). Those 3 Sheeps bottles look pretty tasty, might need to crack into the spiced one today or tomorrow. Thanks Adam! And I forgot one, since I set it aside for tonight’s Xmas eve festivities.
wrapped Christmas bottle from @locoformavs : 2019 Medianoche!! Big time want. Looking forward to enjoying this one soon! That’s just a damn beautiful bottle, too.
Couple of presents from @AyatollahGold opened yesterday so I could share with fellow Newbie @locoformavs: First was my wrapped gift: Also popped my blind bottle he sent: This was a great straight up BBA stout with no-adjuncts, one of my favorite types of beer. This one was excellent too. Dayton coming up big on Christmas with 2 wants. Both beers were incredible, thanks a ton Dayton!
Speaking of @locoformavs, he went and crushed me with a box when we were doing drinking: Bunch of wants and new ticks, a freaking noche and a sick bottle of bourbon. Logan this box is over the top generous, I owe you a box or three my man! Thank you!
There’s very few “wants” on my list but @Eziel found a few this round and included one as my Xmas gift... Tons of raspberry from Jester King can only be one thing and it’s damn tasty Thanks so much Eric and Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays Newbies!
Wrapped bottle from @byrdpickem is a tasty looking BA stout from Southern Grist. This one sounds right up my alley and I can’t wait to try it. Thanks man!
& to round out a fun box from @winehead247 , I opened this up as my Xmas present! Creature Comforts-Welcome, My friends (Imp stout w/ vanilla, coffee & almonds) He even made sure I had the PGW for it as well. Thank you again for the box this round, Blake. I had fun trying the new breweries & new beers you sent. Merry Xmas Newbies & thank you for letting me join in on the fun, glad to be here. Cheers!
@Greeny87 dropped another in my box for Christmas. Can’t wait to enjoy this in the near future. Thanks AG and merry Christmas to all you newbies!
It seems as though @EcoBoostinST wanted to pull a fast one with the glass he included in my box, as it is not #pgw for his wrapped bottle. Barrel Aged Aurox with pure liquid cacao nibs and hazelnut. This sounds absolutely killer, thanks Ian!
I’ll add to the madness with this want from @max13 . I could see the blue label under the cap, such a tasty pour. Can’t believe I was able to enjoy most of it sitting on my front porch in short sleeves last night! Cheers All
