    Pretty sure that most of the rest of them are in transit. @aoampm has been pretty quiet on this thread, but I think everyone else has mentioned shipping.

    @cavedave confirmed shipping local goodness to central VA as well, scheduled for delivery tomorrow! Gotta be up early for a travel hockey game on Saturday, so I can't get all "drink it like it's goin' outta style" on Friday evening....somebody please remind me of that circa 7 or 8 Friday night!!!!!

    I'm pretty sure @aoampm was pre-determined as a late shipper so that makes sense I think.

    Yeah, it's just that the rest of us have been so damn chatty. :grimacing: Plus, maybe he's just giving @FlakyBiscuit more time for the contractors to reinforce his porch!

    I travel often to one state and have family, including a son, there, and I live in the other state, so it really is local goodness from 2 states.

    Admittedly, I have been quiet on this thread, I'm just enjoying reading all the shenanigans and crazy porch bomb pics! I'm heading back to CA tomorrow afternoon and will be assembling my box over this weekend and sending it out early next week. Thanks for your guys patience @FlakyBiscuit and @SammyJaxxxx, my stay in Hawaii turned out to be a little longer than expected. I'm not sure if my box will be QUITE as large as some of the others I have seen, but I promise it will be filled with awesomeness. Cheers and really looking forward to finally putting this box together!

    The box I shipped is scheduled to land on my target's porch today and the box I am to receive is in transit.

    I watched Cloud Atlas last night. I'm pretty sure Tom Hanks said this at one point during one of the segments set furthest in the future.

    Thanks a lot! Tripels are my favorite style, so it's always great to have a new one. Really trying to hit 100 on that style, and I am at 95 currently. Looking forward to reviewing these soon. PS the taped caps were a bit difficult, but thankfully I have an ultra sharp pocket knife.

    I don't know what the usual etiquette is on that, but, IMHO at least, why not? BIFs are listed in the Trading Forum, and are even called Group Trades in the subheader of the BIF page. I say go right ahead.

    I returned from my camping trip to find this: the former office/receiving department for my building. Thanks! They'll probably be billing me for repairs...

    JK, that -struction is obviously con- not de-.
    @Roguer over here, lying to the people again...
    I finally get the box inside and opened and what do I find?

    Jokes on jokes.

    Apologies for the vertical pictures, but...

    BOOOOM!

    So, real quick, let's recap:
    That would be two counts of Hill Farmstead, the reclusive masters up in Vermont (hilarious! They're in Greensboro VT. I sent my package to Greensboro NC! MADNESS), plus a kickass new tulip, and a kickass new tshirt.
    One count of Gandhi-Bot, one of the highest regarded DIPAs out there, and a NE treasure,
    One count of Lunch, another of the highest regarded IPAs out there, and another NE treasure
    and one count of, oh, I don't know, the general consensus best beer brewed in this country??!?
    Plus another kickass glass from a brewery that I am admittedly not familiar with, but whom I will rep with pride via their glasswear.
    THANK YOU Mr. Hart, thank you from the bottom of mine.

    I can't contain my excitement: As soon as I know for sure that I am not going to be called in to work tonight, I might have to crack into one of these alcoholic ambrosia.

    Cheers, all!!

    One of Tom Hanks's characters in the film speaks in a kind of futurespeak pidgin English. That's about the only way I can explain it without actually just posting a link to the whole damn film. I actually liked it, but it's quite complicated at first

    Sorry about the tape, I usually use electrical tape but I packed that stuff up at work so I had to improvise.
