    I'm getting excited for my box to land on the other side of the country tomorrow. Hope you are too!

    If my box is scheduled to land tomorrow or Saturday hopefully someone can shoot me a message (or tell olympuszymurgus) because I will be at home for a couple hours sporadically, and it's been getting up to almost 90. UPS seems to like to deliver to the driveway next door to my house, so that would also have me on the lookout there as well, whereas FedEx seems to know that only one driveway actually leads to a house.

    My box will be landing today as well via FedEx (currently on the truck for delivery), in my hometown, where my father-in-law volunteers at the same place that this BA works, and the box is being delivered to his work. Be on the lookout. 3 Beers - 3 Wants. Hope you enjoy!

    Cheers!
    Jeff

    Got out early today and was mowing the lawn when i saw the fedex pull up. Drove over on the lawn mower and grabbed the box out of his hands while still riding, honestly it was pretty badass.
    Even though i knew what was coming im not sure i was fully ready and BAM

    All wants that I've never had!

    ps-still waiting to hear if Tyler recovers his box from me, otherwise I'll be sending him some more beer (maybe not as sexy as the lost box, but definitely a delicious box of beer)

    These are all GREAT! I hope the lost box comes through....that's a damn shame.

    Speaking of Dissident......how challenging is it to get an '08? I have a '10 and would like to pair them up.

    My box is still M.I.A. and I've been hounding FedEx about it. They claim it was a driver mixup and he delivered to the wrong apartment complex and that it should have been arriving last Friday. I have a feeling I know how this is going to end.

    It's possible I missed something - I noted on the spreadsheet the post where people stated they were shipping. Looks like most are en route if accurate.

    My box was received last Wednesday In Chicago, but it was for a different BA than DaBubs. I will wait until this Wednesday until I post what was sent!

    My box was delivered on Friday. Someone in the Chicago area has some beer. Hope it made it ok!

    Yep. No BA handle on the box, but thought my awesome powers of deduction, I'm guessing it was from you, Imstillthegman?

    Here's the haul:
    Lambickx
    Crooked Stave Wild Wild Brett "Rouge"
    and
    C&C La Folie (not sure of the vintage on this one - anyone understand the New Belgium coding system?)

    Thanks for the tasty sours, gman.

    I like the BA links in the names, good touch. Nice brews to boot.
