    massive Christmas box from @Bert00 so many new ticks can’t wait to dig in. Thank you so much this will help bring in a hopefully better year in 2021. Happy holidays to you and your family

    [​IMG] @Elkevjoe hit me with this box #1 a week or so ago. Quite a few tasty hops and my first CLAG brews, some tasty Veil brews, and a good ol Dragon Saddle which I really enjoyed. Also included was @Elneenee first book.

    Followed that up with box #2 which was a banger.! The Antique 107 has been on my radar but never in my scope. A couple of JOs I've wanted to try, Ruckley, a tasty sounding Four Fires, a couple pickle beers(yes!), a winter warmer, and a big can of Good Ass Beer. I can only imagine what's hiding in the wrapped beers! Lots of good swag too, a Brew Kettle shirt that fits my big ass, my first crack at Buckeyes, my little one eyed the chic-fil-a sauce immediately, couple other treats and some nacho cheese sauce. Thanks Kevin, excited to dig into these! Already killed about half of the buckeye box!

    @kbergen28 beat the shipping obstacle odds and had this amazing package arrive at my place right on time:

    Best of the region line-up here: Revolution, Half Acre (my first Benthic!), Central Waters, Phase Three and Speciation and also new brewery/meadery ticks of Four Fires, Keeping Together and Afterthought. Many thanks Kevin, really looking forward to all of these!

    I got thumped by @jrc1093 not once, not twice, but three times with some boxes filled with northeastern goodies. First up, the bottles.

    [​IMG]

    All new ticks and new breweries to me in Fox Farm and Long Live. Then onto some cans.

    [​IMG]

    Tons of fresh, tasty sounding beers from Fox Farm as well as an Allagash Coolship Red. And then some swag.

    [​IMG]

    A sweet shirt and more Fox Farm freshness. Thanks for a great box Jake!

    Since @LarkinW had already included 2 unwrapped Boiler bottles, I wasn't expecting this sucker to be wrapped up! Great googly moogly, I'm going to have to hide this one from the wife! Thanks once again Larkin!

    Had a feeling @HeartofMiami was going to hit me with a big stout so I drank a bunch of water yesterday morning. This was delicious to drink while eating a bunch of fresh Christmas cookies at the In-Laws. Thanks Jared, I'm still slowing working my way through the rest of the ridiculous amount of Florida brews you sent up north.

    Big want from @Elkevjoe for my Christmas bottle. Going to share this with a neighbor that recently had a child as a celebratory beer so didn't get into just yet. [​IMG]
