NBS BIF #13: Peninsular Envy 2 (The Rocket-Ball Inception)

Nice hits @Ozzylizard and @BBThunderbolt

 

Late yesterday afternoon the LIF box from @nc41 hit.



All new brews from an all new (to me) brewery! I LOVE! German lagers so I'm moving these up in the New Breakfast Beer rotation to start tomorrow! Thanks Dale - looks like I may be journeying to NC before Iceland!

 

Damn, @Mbgreg coming through with powerball size winnings in his LIF. I had Juice Runs The Game last week and it's fantastic.

@BBThunderbolt and @Ozzylizard both dishing out some damage. Nicely done! I'm guessing @Ozzylizard had to cross into Ohio for the Ryeway To Heaven. Nothing would make me happier than Revolution extending distro into western PA, so if you have a source I need to hear it, Bob.

Classic styles for breakfast beers sounds pretty good to me!

 

Cuban guava pastries are a staple when I visit relatives in Wellington Florida. Love a good savory Cornish style pasty ( or Jamaican fwiw). Goya also makes a guava nectar

 

I had the same reaction as @FBarber. That's a freaking LIF box? Well done @Mbgreg!

@Ozzylizard & @BBThunderbolt for the win!

...and yet more beer from @nc41

As I mentioned a couple days ago, I LOVE this part of the BIF...just starts raining beer. Freaking awesome!

 

For a LIF? Wow! The bar was blown away!
Okay, trip to the hardware store, must reinforce the porch STAT!

 

As I casually mentioned yesterday, I have dropped boxes at the post office every day this week. Some of y'all are getting mail.

My target hasn't guessed me yet, but his first box is scheduled to land today, so here's his last hint:

 

This is always the first thing that comes to mind for me and guava:

 

A quick tangent, if I may. Every year a group of us has a Barleywine only bottleshare, usually in late February-early March. Well, obvs, it didn't happen this year, but we're looking at mid-May, since we'll all be fully vaxxed by then. If any y'all have some BWs not available in the PNW, and would be up for setting up a trade, let me know, and we can work something out. I'd like 2-3 22oz bottles (or equivalent ounces in other formats) of 2-3 different brews. Thanks much!

 

Well this depends. I was basically saying that my box will travel east of Chicago. So maybe...

I am sorry. I have been a bit slow at catching up on this VERY active thread. I did see that you kind of, well, asked me if I was your sender. And was getting ready to respond with a hint when I saw this call out. But I see you already have 2 strikes, are you sure you want to swing with Eastlake? I have no idea where a high elevation body of water named Eastlake is in CA.
So I guess I am asking you are you sure this is worth a 3rd strike?

 

@Ozzylizard That looks fantastic!

 

And thus we descend...further.

 

Dear Lord, @Mbgreg !!! This friggin' Westbrook bottles are crushers!!! And the rest...simply WOW!

 

Oh my. Nice tag team hit, or is it just serendipitous good karma coming to fruition?@Ozzylizard @BBThunderbolt

 

After seeing the fantastic boxes from @Mbgreg , @Ozzylizard , @BBThunderbolt , and @nc41 , I just gotta say one thing .....

 

See, there is a town and body of water near you called Eastlake, and I'm close to a body of water called East Lake, which fits your pre-hint hint, and when I checked distance on Google maps, it said 41 hours, which is only off your time be a couple of hours, which could be a difference in time-of-leaving. But I didn't check your Eastlake's altitude.

Still, the Chief steam train connects with the Philadelphia line when it hits Chicago, and we have had one beer exchange, you sending me beer in a LIF.

Did you say you have another hint?

 

Right? Between @BBThunderbolt and @Mbgreg I've already got enough beer to fill the beer fridge and I still don't even know who my actual sender is. Thankfully, I had the foresight to take this Sunday off work so I can open some of these cans for NBW. The bottles may need to wait a bit.

 

Yeah this BIF might make you...
