    To my target, looks like your box was too heavy for C.P. to delivery so they left you a carded notice today telling you to head to Shopper's Drug Mart to pick it up.

    I didn't send any Twin Sails, but then you can't tell as my target hasn't posted his haul on this thread.

    Oh dang - at least it's a decent one! Tried to search your untappd used name actually and couldn't find you.

    Yeah, I find searching out people without a mutual friend or a recent checking to go by can be difficult if not near impossible.

    Also, with untappd, sometimes a brewery search leaves a beer or two out.

    Yes. I was particularly excited by that one. Cheers!

    By the way, that East End Gratitude is one I got from a guy who worked at the brewery a few years back. I had some fresh and thought it was great. Earlier vintages have held up well so I am hoping it ends up being a real treat. Cheers.

    A box has been received, but I am at a Whisky festival. When I sober up tomorrow I will post the haul.

    Thanks @JonCorbett for the densely-packed box that arrived on my doorstep yesterday. I have to say I'm blown away by the number of beers and total volume. I'm super excited to try all of the delicious IPAs - in fact, I have already tried one :slight_smile: I have some serious work ahead of me for sure, though no doubt I will have help from other local beer lovers. Also I'm impressed by the geographic diversity of the beers. I'm sure a great deal of effort went into this box, and it is much appreciated. Cheers!

    Just because we have a quite between the last boxes I am curious so I will gIve a shout out; what Christmas beers does everyone look forward to? I was pretty disappointed that Ontario is not getting Samual Smith annual Christmas brew. I have been buying since I was 19 (17).

    Now I picked up Fuller's and Shepards Christmas brews. What is out there that your looking forward too?

    Actually, I haven't been a huge fan of Christmas brews. I often find them over spiced and not food friendly (unless it's cheese). So, for Christmas beers, I look for barrel aged stouts, porters and barleywines.

    I don’t know if it’s considered a Christmas Beer, but I like Tsjeeses Reserva, or Fremont Boyrbon Abominable.

    So the Fog City coffee that was sent to me is pretty darn good. I was waiting to finish off my other beans before putting these in the grinder.

    I like Unibroue La Resolution. Maybe my favorite is their beers.
