    Glad you are happy with it. The Lonerider shirt was a last minute pickup from a friend who works there. The beer box was already sealed, so no brews from them :slight_frown:

    The DR snifters are my favorite too. I have one of the originals and one like I sent you.

    Cheers!

    Wasn't sure if we were supposed to reveal ourselves as the sender, but it seems like that is fine, so I'll explain now. I'm really OCD about numbers, I wanted to send you all the Surly available right now, which is 5 varieties, but I don't like the idea of sending 5 cans (OCD) so I sent an extra Furious since it was a want.

    Edit: Despite my numbers obsession, I will gladly accept beers in any quantity.

    I say it's ok to reveal yourself after the haul is posted. With me, it's no big surprise. My user name is my first initial and last name. I'm also the only NC participant in this BIF!

    That's gotta be nerve wracking!

    Not too nerve wracking. I'm lucky to have some fantastic beer available locally, so I think I put together a tasty box. The two things that made me nervous were shipping a growler for the first time ever and weather or not Cuzco would dig the scarf. Its more of a soccer scarf that is sponsored by Surly than a Surly scarf per-say.

    Brendan4532- love that your BIFs are clothing your lady friends. I'm sure they'll be just as impressed.

    I have a box in mind and will need to go shopping this weekend.

    Here are the BA scores for the beers i plan on sending
    Growler-97
    Locals-96,92,91,90,93,91,94,84 still have to add a few but this is 116 ounces. I plan on adding another 750 or bomber with scores 90,91 respectively and still looking for more =)

    Should be a good box. That stupid 84 snuck in but i figured it goes with a set

    My box is headed East to someone who wears a shirt size L. If shipped on Monday it will arrive on Thursday

    Cheers

    Finished my shopping and got my last piece of schwag this afternoon while running errands. The haul is headed Northwest on Monday. My target should look for 2 boxes to be on their doorstep on Wednesday evening.
