    I received mine earlier this wee. Shortly after arriving, I accidentally dropped one of my cans of Dovetail’s Baltic Porter and it cracked oven. After my in initial disappointment I was elated to enjoy the contents of the can.

    I dropped the Von Trapp Dunkel, but it didn't open. Luckily if it did I can replace it easily.

    Just don't drop the Urban Chestnut!

    Looks like I should've include a warning to not drop the beers too.

    My box was delivered this morning by (according to my wife) "some old dude driving around with his chihuahua in a beat up Honda Odyssey." I think I will enjoy the beer even more so because of this.

    Got mine. So much for “adult signature required”. Wasn’t home, but delivery guy just dropped package and left. Didn’t even ring my Ring Doorbell (which has video of this entire encounter). But all the beers are safe.

    I was hoping to have a bunch of BA fest crew folks over, but that’s not happening now. Stupid Delta variant. (Too many of us have kids under 12, or older family with health issues to risk it, even fully vaxxed)

    You could always go to a park and hover around an iPad. It’ll probably be fairly light out still anyways!

    if I wasn’t vacationing in Maine that weekend, I’d have thrown down for a projector. Got plenty of outdoor space at my pad. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I hadn't heard anything from Half Time as of this morning. I emailed them and within 20 minutes the confirmed the beer was shipped and should arrive Friday (the 13th).

    So, kudos to Half Time's fast and courteous customer service...

    The beer arrived a day earlier than expected and safe and sound...eager to try the ones I haven't had, but I can wait for the appointed lineup during the fest...

    After the local shipping company lost (or drank) my shipment, Half Time came through with a replacement with two days to spare.

    You can’t REALLY get mad at the shipping company for drinking them…
