    It is indeed out for delivery today.

    Sorry if you're disappointed tbeckett, but although you're close, this package isn't actually addressed to you!

    Awesome, always glad when a box arrives with zero breakage! I'm batting 1.000.

    Box is scheduled to arrive Thursday (ugh) after sitting somewhere between my place and Mississauga for a couple days. Somebody in Suburban Langley should start doing some back exercises for this 30 pounder!

    *Note to my target - I see you already had 1 or possibly 2 of these beers since I've shipped but you seem to have given them quite high scores, so hopefully you don't mind having them again!*

    Canada Post didn't scan my box before it started making its way East, so hopefully it'll arrive on Monday still.

    BBA Plead the 5th is amazing. Another killer box.

    2x4 was a solid 5 out of 5. I will be looking for more of it next time I am south of the border! Waldos coming up next :slight_smile:

    Still trying to upload photos in between drinking beers....

    Attempted delivery today for my package. I work Saturdays so I'm hoping to grab it Sunday from Canada Post for some post-soccer rehydration.

    Same thing happened with my box, stuck in Mississauga for three days. Originally it was supposed to arrive today or Monday, now we're looking at Wednesday.

    Rainhard - Lazy Bones IPA
    Burdock - Cuvee I
    Burdock - Cuvee II
    Bruery Terreux - Gypsy Tart
    Royal City - Berliner Weisse
    The Exchange - Foreign Exchange 8

    Cant wait too cool down the IPAs and dig in!
