    I love when people take nice clear pictures of shipping labels, it makes it so easy to drop a random box on someone.

    Here we go...

    Let me just say first that this box is fucking stupid. It's stupid how cool this box is.

    Baby swag was the first thing I saw.

    Then it was time to start pulling out bottles. Pics in small groups. First:
    [​IMG]

    BA Sexual Chocolate (huge WANT, even if I didn't list it)
    Sexual Chocolate (Sexaayyy)
    Espresso Yeti (Love this)

    Next:
    [​IMG]

    Death By Hops (So excited to try this)
    Event Horizon (I dig this beer)
    Bourbon Barrel People's Porter (Yes, please)

    You'd think that'd be enough, but not ol' Ben. Nope. So now we get:
    [​IMG]

    Ten Fidy (Woo-hoo!)
    Mother Earth Fig & Raisin (Never heard of it, can't wait to try)

    Food swag:
    [​IMG]

    I've already put a dent in the M&M's and I'll split the others with my wife.

    Glass swag:
    [​IMG]

    Duck Rabbit snifter that's totally cool and Terrapin shaker pint that I've never seen before but really like.

    There was also this, which you'll see came with some pretty specific instructions:

    At this point, the baby is wailing cuz he's just tired, so I'm holding him and trying to get him to go to sleep, while still opening this box. Ain't no way I'm waiting to open this. Baby calms down a bit, so I open this up and find:

    Ben, you're the man and LNBA is so fucking generous it's scary. Cheers.

    Glad to see everything made it safely! I was sweating bullets when I woke up this morning; desperately hoping that the FedEx guys stored your box indoors last night. That 26 degree weather made me awful nervous this morning :slight_smile:

    Glad you liked the box! The second I got your name I knew I'd have fun with this one. Consider the Mother Earth beer as repayment for the DCT and the Nooner as a "thank you" gift. For others reading this thread who may not know Brian as good as us, this dude is a champion when it comes to generosity and general awesomeness. This was the least I could do to in some small way repay you for the selfless help you have provided to both me and everyone else in this BIF. Cheers!
