    Well today I got to finally open my 3-8 box and reveal the remaining bottles. I tore into Day 3 and uncovered New Glarus Wisconsin Belgian Red! This beer is a favorite of mine - thanks Mista! I have a trading partner in WI and he said because of the weather there wasn't as many cherries available hence not as many bottles of this around and the creation of Serendipity? Glad to have this for sure.

    Yup, my guy went hunting around WI to find this for you. I had to find something on your "always wants" list.

    I'm happy MA finally has a brewery that I'm proud to put up against the best around the country - Jack's Abby is killing it. With all lagers too - amazing. Hoponius is basically the sister beer to Kiwi Rising - the single to Kiwi's double. Enjoy fresh!

    My beer #3 is Funkwerks Deceit 750ml! Sweet! Never had a beer from Funkwerks, and I've read good things from the forum chatter. I love Belgian styles, and this looks like a very nice tripel from the reviews. Classy label too. Thanks!

    Beer #1: Upslope Whiskey Barrel Aged Export Stout 32oz growler
    Beer #2: Alaskan Smoked Porter 22oz
    Beer #3: Funkwerks Deceit Tripel 750ml

    Great stuff so far, can't wait for the rest!

    In between work and the function I'm currently at, I ripped into my night 3 bottle which was an Alaskan Baltic Porter. Has been a long time want and I really can't wait to try it. Thank iadler, so far you are killing it.
