@MattOC ninja'd me and sent me some Lawson's Triple Sunshine to get closer to the BA 250. I have long followed his posts & commentary and considered him a valuable member of these boards. Now I am even more fond of the guy. I didn't ask for the beers, but he found my address and sent them as a gesture of kindness and camaraderie. Can you believe it? Matt is going to get taken care of. I had another similar experience with @Skeeter17 recently. We have been long-standing trade partners, but he sent me a box that totally caught me off guard and blew me away. Skeeter is going to get taken care of. I wanted to pay it forward. I have 1 extra bottle of Framboise du Fermier b4. It is currently ranked #55 on the BA top 250. Send me a fedex label and it's yours. Please post here to claim. If you were a d-bag to me don’t bother. Cheers BA!
Hopefully in the spirit of both the season and @Affinity 's post, the person that claims this will keep the trend going, and offer another 250 beer up that may be regional/local. (I am no tic'er, so this doesn't benefit me, I just like the sentiment of paying it forward and good beer karma.)
